Sales of Mac OS X Leopard in Japan have exceeded those of Windows for the first time.

A report in Business Computer News claims OS X sales shot up between September and October, climbing from a rate of 15.5 per cent year on year to 60.5 per cent.

However, at Microsoft, Windows sales fell from 75.3 per cent to 28.7 per cent.

In the six days after Leopard's 26 October launch, combined single-user licence (46 per cent) and family pack (7.9 per cent) sales accounted for 53.9 per cent of the total OS-only market in Japan.

The report attributes Microsoft's failing Vista sales to its overly-complex pricing scheme and Apple's commitment to faster product development.

Lol, I use Linux too- It's on my backup/just in case drive. I use Linux to backup all of my files. ^_^, The only thing holding me back from using it more often is I can't get sound working, I've searched everywhere, and the only answer is, is that there's no fix currently. XD

@Blivia ohh i use a PC too...one of the major reason is macs are "insanely expensive" LOL...i use linux...damn fuckin powerful

@vaibhav402

It depends on how well the application is programmed, with a PC you have to know what you're doing. What you're getting into, how to spot the safe software from the bad.

I agree, both systems are good, and bad in their own way. I personally use pc because it does pretty much everything, and it does everything I personally need very exceptionally well. ^_^

IE is the worst browser i've ever used....its a fuckin joke compared to safari and firefox...firefox FTW!!

[vaibhav402]

@Blivia thts the point...u need 3rd party apps which eat up RAM not to mention vista eats 700MB + 3rd party apps...and some of these apps can really screw up ur system...also stability-wise vista sucks balls...mac is comparitivly stable...but win7 rules mac osx performance wise..but again win7 loses in GUI compared to osx..BOTTOM LINE : BOTH HAVE SOME GOOD STUFF AND BAD TOO..its upto us what we need

With Free third party programs I'm sure you can get 90% of that eye candy, and features. Spaces is possible, there's been freeware around for Windows for something like that for Years. There are many applications for Windows if you really want those features, just research some. ^_^

Of course it beats Vista, Vista SUCKS

486 computer running windows 98 beats Vista for crying out loud (>.<)

[crazyjorge2111]

Mac os is waaaaayyy better than windows, but it's overpriced. It's not worth it for a few nicer features and eye candy

[imprezaver4]
