Facts huh?

"I'm sure Disk Utility is great, but on Windows, one never needs to repair drive permissions, so that's not exactly a feature that would be a relevant point of comparison."

I'm just point out FACTS as well. He's not comparing anything. He could have just kept this mouth shut and we'd be all the wiser for it.

And your "defense" is so poorly worded that it makes no sense.

What do spyware and anti-virus have to do with a Disk Utility? David Fenton's point was merely that citing the ability to repair drive permissions isn't a good point of comparison between DISK UTILITY programs! He wasn't attempting to start a platform, merely pointing out that Disk Utility's ability to repair drive permissions on a Mac doesn't make it a more robust program than a Windows such as MagicISO which doesn't have that capability because it isn't needed on a Windows machine.

And David wasn't making any pejorative statement, merely pointing out the facts, so there's no need to feel a need to see that "it evens out."

Um...ok.......

But on a Mac you never need to run a virus protection program, or anti-spyware program. So, I guess it evens out........

There are similar products on Windows, things like MagicISO, although
not quite as robust, as Disk Utility can create and restore from back

I'm sure Disk Utility is great, but on Windows, one never needs to repair drive permissions, so that's not exactly a feature that would be a relevant point of comparison.
