I wonder.

Or we can let the name speak for itself. Just look at "XP" from the right side.... (hint: it's a "smiley").

Well...ACTUALLY ... (Maybe!) i can Kick this thread into Action... Being a Windows User, and having played with OS X for a couple of months on my iBook, i did kinda pick up a lot! ... and For me Personally... OS X, as a whole, Doen't seem to have "As Much" as XP Does! ... i mean, after several updates From OS 10.0, there's still fatures u guys want! ... and Yet XP Doesn't Seem to Need this Kinda updates! ... i know i know, Both OS's Require Security updates, but i am talking one's which provide more functionality and all .. Something as simple as the "Open With" Command For example! ... i EXPECT Some Comeback on this Msg (hehe!) So, come on Guys!

Cool ... Well.... i STILL am Moving to OS X in the Summer (which kinda makes me a little of a hypercrit i guess! But hey! )

Cool!
