"It Never Crashes" it does...

it seems to me that the super-stable intuitive, never-go-wrong, much advertised never-crashing just-works Mac OS X... isn't.

http://www.apple.com/uk/switch/whyswitch/

there's all the problems on windows with the .dlls, but then we get rogue .plist files that need to be trashed, and they are impossible to find, if you don't know where you are looking

there's also permissions. does this actually do anything? i've never seen any diffrence before or after a permissions repair.

kernal panics? a nicely greyed -out, translucent screen of death.

i know nothings perfect, especially with technology, but i think apple could be a little bit more honest. "it hardly ever crashes", as opposed to "it never crashes" etc...
