Creaky Operating Systems Show Their Age | |

A program can't ever really die, but it can get old. Very old. This is a paradox millions of computer users are living with. Almost four years after the release of Windows XP and Mac OS X they boot their machines into more senior versions of Windows or the Mac OS. Those operating systems still fire up in the morning as they always did. But they show their age in other ways -- newer programs and gadgets can't or won't coexist with them. | ||

| 514 million paid-for copies of Windows versus 19 million Mac OS copies sold in 2004 - WOW! |

And there were probably many,many more Chevy's sold than BMW's in 2004.
In other words, pointless argument. |
