Use a Mac… Jeez! Someone had to say it in the midst of all this doom talk. So, if you’re unwilling to get yourself a shiny, new Mac, follow these steps to eradicate and/or prevent the Conficker worm from taking effect on your Windows box: Don’t use Microsoft’s Internet Exploder or Office software for any reason. Use Firefox [...]
When Vista was announced, it was reveled that Microsoft’s Windows team was yanking features (including WinFS, their new filesystem baby), and then its system requirements, I knew we were in for a rocky road with Microsoft’s obsession with making Windows more Mac-like. I was far from wrong. Vista has turned out to be Microsoft’s least liked OS ever (even less popular than Windows Me, though not nearly as hated as BOB). Microsoft even stooped to tricking people into liking Vista by showing them Mojave, a tweaked version of Vista. Now, if they’re willing to modify the system to make all references to Vista become Mojave instead, what else were they willing to change… but I digress.

If you’ve been reading me for a while you likely already know that I’m not a huge fan of Windows. I’ll admit, I am a huge fan of Windows 2000 which, in my opinion, was the best OS ever made in Redmond. After a few years, Windows XP made my #2 fave of all time Microsoft OS. That’s saying a lot for a dyed in the wool Macintosh guy.
