Quoted: PORTLAND, Ore. -- Oregon Iron Works has the feel of a World War II-era shipyard, with sparks flying from welders' torches and massive hydraulic presses flattening large sheets of metal. But this factory floor represents the cutting edge of American renewable-energy technology.

So, what would happen if the world was suddenly rid of viruses and malware? Would the companies making millions (if not billions) of dollars from products and services aimed to keep you protected suddenly find themselves out of business? Isn’t in their best interest to make sure we’re vulnerable so that they can sweep in and protect us from harm?
You’re not locked into anything other than something that works with far fewer incompatibilities than you have been lead to believe. The hardware and software were designed to go hand in hand with Apple - whereas, the traditional PC’s greatest strength and weakness is in its level of configurability flexibility.
There are a few Mac fanatics who aren’t very impressed with what’s coming in Leopard - much like Windows fanatics (and former Windows fanatics) weren’t impressed with Vista. Each camp argues that these OS revisions don’t go far enough - the argument is universal.
However, I can tell you that - with my limited exposure to the latest Leopard beta - OS X 10.5 is a far more user friendly, home network happy, 64-bit operating system for consumers than Windows Vista (even with SP1) could ever hope to be. This isn’t a classic “Apple vs Microsoft” argument so much as it’s a “Windows vs Users” one.
