3:08 PM - Windows is a chevy and Mac OS is a BMW
Here's an portion of a recent slashdot post I made:
Apple has always been considered premiere with windows as the regular everyday OS. Think of it this way. Windows is like a chevy and Mac OS is like a BMW. Not everything thinks a BMW looks good, but many people would buy one if they could afford it. Windows users advocate buying a chevy.. they are more popular and look cheaper up front. The bills to keep the chevy running over time start to add up though. In windows terms, antivirus software and other utilities. I hope this explains why the guy said MS was catching up.. its like chevy releasing a good car. Before anyone gets upset, remember chevy has always been considered GM's lowend line. They are also GM's most popular brand.
