Corporate users of Apple Inc.'s Leopard operating system are more than five times more likely to say that they are "very satisfied" with the OS than business users of Microsoft Corp.'s Windows Vista , a research firm said last week.

53% of the 8% who use OS X also paid for investment advice from the ChangeWave invrestment newsletter. This post was edited by NotParkerToo on Monday, March 31, 2008 at 10:38. |

| Apple users happy with Apple products? Stop the presses! Next up, we'll find out whether Green Bay residents like the Packers.... |

The real shocker:
"47% of Apple users are NOT very satisfied!!" |

This story is so sweet AW had to link it twice.
"Microsoft only trumped Apple in questions that drew out negative responses, such as which company people would want to argue with the most. Consumers cited Microsoft's product-driven (instead of consumer-driven) approach, the company's values, and its "frustrating products" as reasons to argue, although Apple came in a close second for "exploiting customers' good will." Microsoft also came out on top when customers were asked to choose which company to rebrand. "It's gone from innovative and bold to stodgy and a follower," said one respondent. |

Sadly its true. Damn near anybody using a Mac is always going to love it. The first 2 rev's of OSX that came out here were so bad as far as stability that my graphics people had to reboot 2-3 times a day if not more. But they still would be the first to say it "worked great" and "I don't get any BSoD's like windows" (granted their crashes were black screens.
Its also worth noting that nearly every single business environment that uses Macs uses them for very specific roles. Those using them for those roles prefer apple over windows for graphics etc. (even though there is no realy argument for that anymore besides Quark which is losing steam imo). It makes sense that Artisitc ppl would proclaim undying love for Apple products... its kinda what they do. |

| Although some may argue that the MAC user experience is superior to that of Windows, their OS security appears to equal to that of Microsoft's prior to the Secure Computing initiative. |

I tried MAC Leopard and honestly I am not impressed by the UI; true I have not used it for more than 20 years still I do not like it.
I do not like Vista UI as well; the concept of 'windows" itself is old; following is a link to an article written by someone who is way more qualified, and therefore able to explain much better what I mean: http://www.istartedsomething.com/20070511/taking-the-windows-out-of-windows/ I think that one of the reasons Apple users are, supposedly, more satisfied than Windows users is that people who buy an Apple want Apple, a vast majority of the people using Windows just want a computer. In other words people who buys Apple are like people who buy a specific car because they like that brand and that model while, again, a lot of Windows users are like people who says "I need a car to go from point A to point B" so they buy a computer to do certain tasks and do not know/ do not care about the installed OS. If you prefer you could put it this way: 95% of Apple users are Apple zealots 10% of Widows users are Windows zealots :-) |
