Apple's products are universally acclaimed for their wonderfulness and gorgeousness -- except in the real world, where people use computers for actual work and not just for messing around.

Just ask The Onion, and when you're done, have a butchers' at the latest market-share statistics. Apple's Leopard operating system failed to make significant in-roads against even an ailing Windows Vista, and we're not so sure Snow Leopard, despite its claimed improvements, has what it takes to topple Windows 7.

Save your eggs and flour until the end, children. Over the next few pages, we're going to explain our rationale, and by the end of it, we're willing to bet you'll agree with us. Or flame us in the comments below.

The debate about which is better will last for years. But in this house Windows 7 is king. Steve Jobs..well his name is the brunt of some jokes that we will keep to ourselves.

The one thing I notice the most being a tech is that the hospitals and schools I service are all running Windows. If the Mac were so good I would think that they would hold those markets. You life literally depends on both those institutions keeping their records straight.

Windows 7 pretty much is the end of the debate!

You'll get no argument from me!

There's a reason why Steve only took one bite from the Apple... :sarc:
