Apple Outpaces Microsoft

Here's an interesting observation from the back pages of the October 2006 Macworld magazine:

The Mac Pro's release marks the completion of Apple's less-than-a-year-long Intel transition. In that same amount of time, Microsoft went from a developer's build of Vista to a slightly less buggy developer's build.

Many contend Vista's still too buggy. Meanwhile, Apple rolls merrily along. The company's prepping the next OS release (Leopard) and is likely lining up movie distribution through its revolutionary, industry-changing iTunes store.
