I'll never buy a Windows computer again

Ever. And I'm not an Apple fanboy or Microsoft-basher, just a switcher who'll never go back. And I'm well aware that Mac shouldn't be considered bulletproof by any means, but these sorts of things are going to be far more prevalent on Windows systems. It certainly was in the case of the SonyBMG DRM. I felt extremely lucky that the MediaMax CD I placed in my PC in 2004 didn't seem to leave any traces, or the one, non-rootkit XCP CD that I put in there.

I would say that my pointing out the legal ramifications of Russinovich's actions to be akin to what you said in that other thread--like pointing out that someone's stepping on an ant. Does it make sense to you that I am pointing to these extremes with consistency for a reason?

Here's an example of how this could've been a problem for Mac users, also.
