I too work with both systems (I was the one who started this Vaios are crap
thread btw). I have a Win 98 PC at home, and work with top of the line Macs
at work every day.
The real reason I started this crap though wasn't to compare the OS, but
rather the *hardware* itself. I was mearly stating that Vaios, and Sony
things in general are much more remarkable in terms of design, and inovation
that reliability.
For example, late yesterday at work we got our newest Mac. A 766 mhz G4 with
1 GB of RAM, and a DVD-R. Yes, it rocks in a box as you might have guessed.
The suck thing is that we bought a nice new Sony 21" monitor to go with it
and guess what? It's defective. Every once in a while you get a shakiness
that looks like a monitor just after it de-gauses. If you hit the POS, the
problem goes away.
This reminds me of back when I worked selling computers, and we had this one
guy return 3 Trinitrons before he got one that worked to his satisfaction.
Some may say he was picky, but I would be too if I was dropping $1000 on a
monitor and I got it home and it was blury, or it was impossible to get a
square image.
A Trinitron in working order is one of the best monitors around, but they
also have a hidious falure rate. My friend bought a Dell a while back (also
much better made than Sony most of the time, regardless of OS) and the
thinly disguised Sony monitor it came with died after about 9 months. No
picture at all.

"Let me explain a couple of things. Time is short. That's the
first thing. For the weasel, Time is a weasel. For the hero,
Time is heroic. For the whore, Time is just another trick.
If you're gentle, your Time is gentle. If you're in a hurry,
Time flies. Time is a servant, if you are its master. Time
is your god, if you are its dog. We are the creators of Time,
the victims of Time, and the killers of Time. Time is timeless.
That's the second thing. You are the clock, Cassiel."
