I spent about an hour this past weekend reading about some of the
problems *some* Apple users are having with the latest release of OS X,
aka Leopard. Some Apple folk are having some serious issues. My guess is
that if Apple had the same sized user base for its operating systems as
Microsoft does, and if those Apple users were similar to Windows users,
the number and seriousness of problems would be similar.
If memory serves, I read where Apple has under 5% market share of
desktop PC operating systems.
This used to be a boater newsgroup. There's no requirement that posters
here have any knowledge of a computer OS or in fact have a boat. We have
plenty of boatless posters here who also present as too slow to use a
computer, too.

I wonder who started the discussion on how GREAT Vista was? Ohhhh yeah,
now I remember, it was Harry Krause. You are just upset because most
people don't think it offers any advantages over WinXP, but definitely
has a ton of bugs that MS has not been worked out. Univ. of Penn IT
dept. does not recommend Vista and does not recommend Vista SP1.
ZDNet conducted a survey and 80% of the IT depts. said they had will NOT
be updating to Vista, and they will continue using the same OS they
currently are using.

Why do you have a problem with what OS another person may be using?

Got some posts of mine in which I claimed VISTA was *GREAT*. I upgrade
to it, found it fairly problem free, and it hasn't caused me any serious
problems since, far fewer problems in number or seriousness than I had
with XP Pro or Win2k.
VISTA is pretty good, but obviously it requires more mental ability to
use properly than you have.
HK
Because he doesn't like me or your son, *and* he is in no position to
discuss boats.
Loogy...@gmail.com
Are you saying that you have more mental ability than all of the Penn
State IT department, Microsoft programmers, several tens of thousands
of other users, and Norton specialists?

Read, Jim. It's people like ZDNet, 80% of IT departments, Penn State
and even Microsoft themselves that have a problem with Vista.

I will ask you the same question I asked Reggie...........Why are you so
worried about what others use as their OS?

His low blow of calling my son a ditch digger while serving honorably for
our Country as a US Marine defines the type of person Loogie is. I will
not sink to his level by saying what I really think about him.

Why would you say a thing like that? Do you somehow believe that
digging ditches is less than honorable?
What would you say about some fat short over the hill guy from
Maryland who hides behind his Bozo's bin and insults and calls people
names? Is that honorable?
Or how about you? Telling lies, making up stories and saying nasty
untrue things about people and even stooping so low that you say
things about someone's wife and school aged children. How honorable is
THAT?
HK
My guess is that Loogy is doped up most of the time, or drunk.

Loogy, think about who you're talking to.

No need to reply as you are acting just like him by doing nothing but
constantly insulting some folks here.
2 posts by you today.........2 examples of exactly what I said.

It's either that, or his crappy golf game, or his latest cruise on the

A surprising reply from a veteran.........but obviously based on your

A shame.

LOL! Well Harry, you're 50% right about me. I have two boats and no
computer OS knowledge.
Wait a second! I ahve TWO boats so you'e 100% right about me!
...or would that be 100% wrong?
Or....Oh well.....
hk
It doesn't matter if you are the self-proclaimed computer dummy you
claim to be because you have boats and you discuss your boats and
boating issues from time to time. That differentiates you from those
mentioned in the paragraph from me you quoted.
I have two and a half boats, but not for long. x

Harry,
I know about the LTP, and half a canoe, what is the other boat?
HK
What brand, model, and year of boat do you own, Reggie?
Reginald P. Smithers III
It is a semi-custom built boat designed by Steve Zimmerman. The
Zimmerman 36 was finished in 2001, but we have continued to update it
annually.

Just curious and not trying to defend Harry.......why have each and every
one of your posts today (as with most days) been a direct or indirect attack
on Harry?
Those posts actually define your actual purpose here.
Do you have a life?

Because he has the hots for me and hopes I'll visit the men's room stall
at the Atlanta airport next to the one where he lurks.

His 36' Zimmerman like lobster boat.
Harry, you seem to be awfully sure that he doesn't own a boat. How do
you know this?
You see, you think that everyone else here lies like you do, that's
just not correct.
