Windows for Supermodels

i can fiz thiz sorta

I would just like to say, for those who have not yet heard this rant, that I HATE Windows Vista.

It is Windows for Supermodels, like I told The Muse the day after I got my new desktop out of the box.

Why? Because, after all, it's pretty. So pretty. The interface, on first glance, is gorgeous. Fading windows, glassy see-through title bars, cute little desktop widgets. But then you ask it to do something and it goes all "No, I do not theenk you are fabulous enough to do this, yes?" on your ass. And it wont talk to other computers because they are so last-OS. Not to mention it picks fights with its former BFFs the printer, the scanner, and the wireless keyboard because they interfaced with its hardware system behind its back. And then miraculously announces to the press via a startup screen that that's all behind it now, until it sees them at work and chucks a shoe.

Seriously, I have enough drama in my life already. Bill Gates is going to hell for this, I'm certain.

Get a Mac. I know it's like some creepy cult, but our cameras and stuff work far better on my Powerbook than on Addie's PC. Once you go Mac...

Btw, why - oh why - are you making me (of all people) type the word saxophone? I have to wash my hands now.

ahh, someone already beat me to it, but you already heard me say that you're bound to get a mac on your watch. and he's right... once you go mac, you NEVER go back. :)

i love the 'windows for supermodels' quote. it's, of course, on my fav quotes on the facebook.

rofl... Great post... And they're right, once you go Mac...

Although I'm forced to use POS, I mean, PC at work...
