Good grief.

It's not "OS ex," it's "OS Ten."
That just drives me nuts.

ThePimento stole my thunder for beating you about the head and neck for
"Oh Ess Ex," but I still have to pile on.

The minute you said that, I didn't really care what else you said. We all know
that c|net doesn't believe serious people actually use Mac or Linux computers
- or at least you're willing to believe it from MS when they hand you the
checks, but don't insult us by contriving some sort of fake authority who
knows so little about Apples that he doesn't know the name of the operating
system.

You'd fire this guy if he said "Windows Twenty-Hundred." (Two oooh?)
OS X (ten!) has been around longer, and has never changed nomenclature.

I've been a Mac user since the Puma days, and you'd be surprised to know that a good deal of CNET employees use Macs. If you'd like to complain about any inaccuracies included in the embedded video besides naming conventions, be my guest. Otherwise go troll somewhere else.

Also regarding Microsoft, Vista rated in the low to mid 7's, with ultimate topping out at 7.8. Leopard scored a solid 8.0 in its review (http://reviews.cnet.com/macintosh-os/mac-os-x-10/4505-3673_7-32058772.html?tag=blgs)
