When was the last time you tried KDE4? I found that it was very unstable and buggy when I first tried it when it came out. Nowadays it seems stable (haven't had it crash anymore), and much less buggy (ie. normal level of bugginess).

> I like that Macs are true multi-user operating systems. I can separate work and leisure better that way. I've heard this a couple of times in the last days, and it has left me wondering, in what ways isn't Windows a "true" multi-user

Why on earth would anyone want to use Java the language on anything else than JVM and get rid of the one and only alleged advantage that Java has?
