1a. Hmmm, so 'poor and slow migration' now becomes 'It went well'. I agree it went very well.

1b. Neither did I.

2. So what part of this message should I disregard.

3. That's the service MSDN, man they sure send you heaps of CD's. I'm still using them as mug coasters. I don't doubt you 'know a little bit'

4. Yes, I do believe that MS expects their user base to upgrade immediately. Failing that ASAP. Why on earth would they put all these years of development into a product, for it to sit on the self. I think they will invest HUGE sums of money to promote its immediate uptake. They did last time, and the time before that, and the time before that...

5. 'both great OS's' In your opinion not in mine. And it sounds to me that you are being guilty of 'prosyletizing advocates based upon subjective emotions'.

I was suggesting that Apple currently has the right tool for this job, that it is correctly priced and that in the long term will have the least impact in updating. This I and a number of others have found true both by research and personal experience. YMMV.

I believe that this thread has reached it's conclusion, and our positions will not change. Lets move on to more constructive endeavours.

Have a Very Merry Christmas, and restful holiday.
