Seriously, I don't see why this is big news here on an Apple oriented site. Maybe I'm missing something because of my poor English? Is it really a surprise that Sun and Oracle experts helped to recover when MS has nothing to do with the setup? It…

BTW how was the update experience from Mac OS 9 to OS X? Or the update experience from a PowerPC Mac with Tiger to Snow Leopard? And what about the guest account issue after updates from Leopard to the snow cat? Come on! That's cheap. Did nobody …

The author says that iLife is free because it comes with a new Mac but Windows 7 Professional cost you $300? Haven't you heard that a lot of PCs do have Windows pre-installed? So from this perspective it's also "free". What is the author talki…

Oh my god... First: how you know that Snow Leopard will be cheaper than Windows 7? When you buy a new PC you will get a FREE upgrade to 7 soon. And even owners of old PCs can buy 7 and improve their system without buying new hardware. Snow Leopar…
