INQ hack goes Mac
,----[ Quote ]
| I'm simply fed up. I'm fed up with the absolute turd that is Windows Vista.
| I've been using it since beta's were stable enough for day-to-day use, and I
| just can't take another five minute wait of constant disk thrashing, after
| another reboot forced upon me by yet another security patch from Microsoft.
|
| Explorer used to be simple to use, now I struggle to navigate the mess of the
| new (but half-implemented) user interface.
|
| I can no longer stand the disk thrashing while I'm in the middle of my work -
| for apparently no good reason - which makes the system unusable for sometime,
| until I've gone and made a coffee or two.
