Personally, I use them all. They each have their good things and bad things. I use a different OS depending on the work that the machine will be doing.
It is kind of like the wakeskate wars. Why not take advantage of them all?? |

Frye, I hate Windows because I've lost like 50+ 2000 word reports, and it crashed in the middle of me ordering something and charged my parent's credit card for like 800$.
"OH YOU'RE ALMOST DONE AND YOU'RE ABOUT TO SAVE, THAT'S AN ILLEGAL OPERATION AND THIS PROGRAM WILL BE SHUT DOWN KTHXBYE!"
"OH WOWZIEZ IS THAT A CREDIT CARD ORDER? CRASHHHH!"
Ugh. |

ha ha sorry to interupt your argument about your porn boxes but did anyone notice that down the bottom of that iPod page that it said "Do not eat iPod shuffle."
well anyway i just thought that was funny, back to it.
and for all those people that missed the point of the iPod shuffle, its Apples mp3 device for the Compact flash market, all the other ipods contain micro hard drive which have moving parts meaning that excesive shaking can make the hard drive skip and cause damage, but in the shuffle it contains no moving parts therefor excesive movement can't damage the storage system. dont compare it to the other iPod's because they're completely different things.
and by the way i think most of apples products are over prices... i mean, you get what you pay for but still...
You'd be surprised how many nerds (generalization) will actually go out and pay an extra $200 for something that they could have got at radio shack for much less.
well there's my two sence. (i feel like a nerd now... thanks alot)  |

And the "shuffle" part is a marketing ploy to try and make up for the lack of a display screen that the hard drive ipods have. |

I was ordering a bunch of stuff for like 200$ total, I guessed that the crash made the information send around 4 more times. |
