No, let's not. Let's debate this instead without resorting to those kinds of platitudes.
This is not a religious dispute, Joelist. We're talking facts here. I worked several years as an analyst before moving on to another field - due to my job I have to use a Windows PC on the field. I use Macs privately. Windows is more powerful, but it is certainly neither user-friendly nor intuitive. And it breaks and crashes. Windows 7 as well. Very often indeed. Like I said, I just need to leave the laptop on and it accumulates so much garbage that it ends up crashing. I offered you all the anedoctal evidence I can.
You are an IT guy, of course you find Windows usable! But talk to people like my wife sitting next to me, my non-geek friends, writers, many members of my family. My mom just learned to use computers on a Windows machine (because she is a writer) a few years ago. She recently bought herself a Mac against my advice even (I always say stick with what you know) - and now she tells me she's finally having fun and never looked back.
If you know your way around computers, Windows is great (Linux is better), but if you're Joe blow and you just want to use a computer with no hassles, then Max OS is still the intuitive, user-friendly system of reference. Including Snow Leopard.
The price for usability is, of course, flexibility. When some things don't work, well... then they just don't work. But like I said,
non-gamers who just want to write documents, file and correct pictures and surf the internet are perfectly happy to pay that price if it means not having to befriend a computer geek or resort to the services of a technician. If it weren't so, people wouldn't be paying more for Apples, and I'd be using the same OS at home as I have to on my business PC.
