I don't know, I've never owned any Microsoft hardware but the the attitude to software development leaves a lot to be desired.
I wouldn't want Bill Gates to get pancreatic cancer and die prematurely though.
I disagree with Jobs that death is a good bit of design.
I want my lives to work right out of the box and last practically forever (like this laptop after Apple finally got around to fixing it).
I also want the experiences and information trapped inside this body of mine to transfer into a new one when it's reaches a point of being beyond repair.
