What PC to buy?

ROTFL...

Talk about self proclaimed experts...

Not being too sure in what context you mean't that remark to be taken, I'll just follow it with more humour to get you rolling about by defining an 'Expert'

Ex = something that was
Spert = A drip under pressure

I realise the spelling is questionable, but humour allows for this.

Sledger: your definition of "Ex Spert" works for me... I'm also curious as to what John meant with his remark?

Maybe he's thinking that the OS doesn't technically 'operate' the disks, and that it is more of the responsibility of the BIOS. Wiki states that DOS is standardly referred to in that capacity, though.

Daniel was getting "technical" about XP, Vista not using DOS... Sledger corrected him by saying that DOS stands for "Disk Operating System". The correction of the corrector made me ROTFL.

The intent of Daniel's statement was correct Microsoft quit using MS-DOS in everything newer than 2000. Using the more general term DOS was the error. Every computer that accesses a hard drive uses a DOS.

Personally I will never buy an Apple!
Have you ever seen someone with a PC run Parallels?
No with good reason PC software is better!
And to go on about Apple - I've always believed they would have
gone out of business if they didn't make it so easy to rip off the music industry with their Ipod
