In the meantime, it is working on the Xbox 2.

It put out the Xbox, entering a whole new market. In the past 5 years, MS put out Office 2003, with Office 2007 on the way. etc.Īpple does a lot less (no, iWork can in no way be compared to MS Office, no matter how much I like it). Microsoft does operating systems, office suites (on 2 platforms), developer tools, databases, gaming consoles, games, hardware, etc. People seem to forget that Microsoft puts out a lot more products in a lot more product ranges than Apple does. I still can enjoy vista-like features with windows XP, if I use XP with limited user account-called “user” and applied the high security template (hisecws.inf) that comes with windows XP for a good intro guide see “ …Īlso few Internet Explorer tweaks and you will be able to make it so immune.įinally with this solution you will need the knowledge how to administer your system from limited account like “user”.įor experienced administrators vista means nothing more than XP, it just means more burden on your pocket.īUT,for novices it will be much more easier to get windowsXP-like high security configuration with little administrative knowledge or experience. I know you will start telling me that there are other features here and there but believe me greater than 80 % of any OS will never be used, just basic features are important to many people, which Microsoft just patched not redesigned or re-engineered. Vista is not a GREAT product, it is simply XP – problems we cried to Microsoft to solve since even Windows 2000.

My friend Apple Created a complete new platform in the 5 years Microsoft is trying to patch XP.
