Apple, you FINALLY did it 
What took you so long? I've been waiting for the core 2 duo chips to be placed in these things for a couple of months now. Finally, I can make the swap to mac. 
Somebody talk me out of it! | |

The Windows XP keyboard. At least it's effective. Just close whatever app crashed. With Apple, if something freezes - oh well, yer screwed! Manual restart, bitch! Those machines are POSs IMO. " | |

Not true. Plenty of apps freeze XP. It runs applications in a theoretical designated space. I forget what the term is, but the problem is programs which make thread calls to the subsystem (some applications can do this--Microsoft's abstraction layer doesn't prevent it) can crash the OS altogether. I supported application packaging and distribution via Novell Zenworsk to NT, 2000, then XP (been in IT for about 14 years now  since green screen mainfraims were in vogue in the military) and although they've greatly improved stability, I've been on many a call were we've tried to determine what business application components were crashing the system.

. [Edited 11/9/06 20:10pm] What exactly is "not true." I'm only saying that based on personal experience. Windows: OS has never crashed on me, if an application crashes, ending the process directly always works. Apple: shit freezes, there's nothing you can do except restart the comp and lose whatever you were working on. I never bought into that Apple hype. " | |

I've been on projects were we've had to fly Microsoft in to determine what was wrong with the comctl32.dll file and why it was cuasing IE6 to crash the rest of the system. | |

If you don't have corrupt .dll or .dll issue, yes it can work. 
But if you end up with .dll hell, then you're screwed. .dll hell occurs very frequently in corporate environments. I've seen XP do some very interesting things. There's actually third party software out there that truly attempts to "isolate" programs so that you can have side-by-side apps running with each other. For example certain versions of Oracle can't run with others, and in a corporate environment you may end up with a user who needs different business apps that each have their own prerequsite needs. CTRL-SHIFT-ESC/kill process or kill explorer works alot of times, but when it doesn't lawd lets all pray  | |

But when it does, you can the system can lock. XP is very stable most of the time. But not perfect. I'm ready for a switch.  | |
