    We do a lot of Windows bashing here at 2FatDads.com and in all fairness we usually have been given many good reasons to be so negative about the aging and flailing Microsoft OS.  We’ll been using it since the Windows 3 days and most of us are very knowledge at making it do our will.…

      Before I even get started with this, let me just that this hands on review will not rival John Siracusa’s in depth analysis of the latest flavour of Mac OS X. If you need that much detail, please go ahead and read his article here. It’s no secret that most of the Fat Dads…
