Heh, that's kinda funny.

That's sad. If that's true, MS has really disappointed me.

It's not necessarily their fault. Most corporations hire a third party to handle their marketing.

...but considering this advertisement is meant to counter Apple's, it's pretty ironic.

I should give Macs another chance sometime soon. Go in for a change. Is their OS free or you have to pay?

 

[Teny]

i think you have to pay, but it should come with the OS when you buy a new mac.
funny thing i found out about the mac os was that mac said you cant install the mac OS on anything besides an mac system.

Really? J, weren't you running Mac OS with Linux and Windows? Or was that 2 different computers in 3 screens?

I think according to the EULA or whatever it's illegal.

wont it be hard to find Mac OS drivers too? and activating the Mac OS and everything?

You don't need to activate Mac OS 10 in order to use it.

Could I run Mac OS along with Linux and Windows on my Mac? Sure, why not. But you're not allowed to run Mac OS on anything but a Mac.
