Re: XP - Crashed
As a network person one of the things Ive noticed is that if an office is running on Windows then you can always ask "who is your computer person" and they will all point at someone. Sometimes its some poor shmuck who had a home computer first and barely knows how to do installs, but there always is one. If its a MAC network and you ask the same question then they show you a buisness card that is sometimes a couple of hours drive away. The point is that a MAC office can run for years doing everything they want to do, documents, spread sheets, presentations, etc etc without ever worrying about it. And a Windows office cant.
Its harder to write things for the strict rules on a MAC but that has its pros and cons. The good stuff and necessary stuff gets ported, but tends to cost more. Any joe can write for Windows but that comes with compatability problems, crashes, familiarity with re-installs. Not so bad with the Last couple of Versions but still there.
Always beware of asking a guru which one you should use. Guru's are created by irritating operating systems. Dont ask the guy who can fix anything on the computer. Ask the guy who has been happily computing for years and still says he knows nothing of computers.
