If OS X and Windows were cars, what would they be?

Lexus is overpriced and doesn't add anything really.

Lexus is actually a very nice company. Their cars are really nice. If, when you bring your car in for servicing and you don't mark everything "Excellent" they call you--personally-- and find out why because it is their job on the line if something goes wrong. Which is very rare. Lexus, it is worthy to note, has not made a vehicle that can be called a "lemon" so far.

So I wouldn't mind calling my Mac a Lexus.

OSX: BMW, Mercedes or any other luxury car.

Linux: Hyundai, Honda, Toyota, Nissan, ect. Just as reliable as the luxury automobiles, just not as luxurious.

Windows: Fred Flinstone's car. Worthless piece of junk.

I'd say Apple always mentions BMW, so Apple computers are like BMW or Mercedes, they are expensive, but you get what you pay for. I might get flack on this one, but Windows looks like a Porche or something nice, but the engine is worse than a Yugo and is prone to breakdown as soon as the warranty expires or sooner.

Wow! If the old Merc E-Class married the Jag S-Type I reckon they'd have a car that looked like that. Eeewwwww

Well that is the truth.

Windows steal from Mac OS X. Same as Kia stole from Merc, Opel and a few other can't remember now.

OS X: Renault Espace:

It is comfortable, is the safest car on the road atm (doesn't crash ), fast enough, efficiant, nice extras, clean looking..

Windows: Kia Sedona:

Its big, ugly, and trying to be classy. Cheap. It has a bigger engine and more umph than the espace, but it doens't utilise it properly. It sucks for safety, and always crashes..

Done!
