As an ex Windows user, I feel the need to chip in. I know this has been said countless times, but with as much money Microsoft "makes" on their product, you would think that it would at least be worth a shit. I call it the Mir space station of OS's. Since I've switched to Mac, I've stopped keeping track of all the security flaws, but I wouldn't be at all shocked to hear its over 100.
With OS X, one need not worry about such things. To me, Panther is just a much "smarter" OS. The thing just works. I like that I can move files in use freely without an interruption. I can move a song thats playing in iTunes from my download directory to my MP3's folder with no interruption of playback or wacky Windows "what the hell do I do" message. I will concede that they are slower, but my 1.25G PowerBook G4 runs Photoshop, Final Cut, iTunes, and many other apps simultaneously with no trouble. I've found a decent enough selection of games. They are more expensive, but well worth it in my opinion.
