I've had it! My windoze PC is going south (AFTER LESS THAN TWO F*CKIN' YEARS!!!!)... While it's at it it's taken out my calendar file. It runs like a slug (XP home on a HP a810n desktop. The first thing that went was burning DVDs. Now it won't recognize ANY external USB devices (my main backup drive and Printer -- goody!) I will NO LONGER work in Windows. I'm tired of being a Tech Support programmer (it SUCKS). I'm prepared to buy a new machine for my main desktop. So, should I go Linuz on a PC or Apple -- WINDOZE IS NOT AN OPTION!!! I do lots of email. I do some video and lots of audio processing. The Audio processing is at a PROFESSIONAL level -- two-track WAV multi-track mixes to CD. I do some word processing (but often have to read word files)... I need iTunes too. I guess I'm landing on Apple but what about it??? My reservation about Apple is a response to not being able to get rid of the requirement to enter the main password to "unlock the keychain" on my girlfriend's iMac. We upgraded the memory, installed Tiger (10.4.8) and ran the keychain first aid and no joy. I found another keychain file in the top level library folder (called system) -- deleted it and then it worked -- no need to enter keychain password... Until next bootup then --- back to the nonsense. All OS's suck. Some suck more than others!!!
