But you said you threw it away. So what are you doing to run IE 7? You couldn't even run IE7 successfully in Vista? Wow, it really must suck, then. I regret doubting you for a second. > that was like over 2 years ago dave and then i switched to a > mac and all was good in the world...

When you do something on your Mac that requires administrative credentials, it doesn't automatically go ahead and do it, right? It asks you first. That's what Vista does now. I don't see how that cripples anything. Running as a non-administrative user is how it should work. And, you know, if UAC is too much of a pain for you to deal with, you can turn it off. I think that's a terrible idea, but the option does exist. And, if you're just running IE7, you wouldn't even see UAC prompts, because browsing is an end-user activity. For a Mac user who switched, like, over two years ago, you spend an inordinate amount of time complaining about your Windows problems. But whatever floats your boat, I guess. > most of your reply was based upon you assuming that I would > actually want to run windows apps, I dont.. just windows > crappy browser.

Windows' crappy browser is a Windows app. So it appears that my assumption was correct. And even if a browser was not, in fact, an application, I think it's a fair assumption that people buy Windows to run Windows apps. Presumably, when you saw me passed out in a hotel lobby, you assumed I'd been drinking, right? But for all you know, I have an inhuman tolerance for alcohol but was bopped on the head by an alien. And yet, you just jumped right to the assumption I'd been drinking.
