Better PCs than PCs?

Steven Frank, 'Macs Really Do Run Windows Better'. This is so true. It's often a very frustrating process to reinstall Windows on a PC from one of the major PC manufacturers. Sony's driver download process is quite frustrating. Dell's process is not much better. It seems that the whole process was designed to simplify the process for the company and not the customer. Dell's Resource CD is nice that it has drivers for a whole series of systems, and much of the installation process is automated. However, you still have to find each particular driver for your system and run the installer. Not bad for geeks, but pretty confusing for most other people.

Why can't these huge PC manufacturers develop an elegant driver install system like Apple?

Apple iPhone Non-sense

It seems like many critics are going out of their way to critisize Apple's iPhone. First, the iPhone's too expensive, then the price cut is too much too soon, and now selling 1 million iPhones in 74 days is too slow.

Blackfriars' is right, I think selling a million of anything in two months is pretty awesome. Another point I would add to their list is that the 1 million iPhones sold were only sold in the US. Woudn't the sales accelerate even more as Apple starts rolling out the iPhone to International markets? I think it would be pretty difficult for Apple to maintain "a consistent rate" of iPhone sales even if they tried.

I don't know guys, I think there are more people living outside of the US than inside... Maybe we should send these critics some maps fromhttp://mapsforus.org/.
