A bit exreme DM, but i agree 
. So Scott, err, i think youll find all OS's have errors. Its not when the OS does something wrong that it screws up, its usually the users fault for not looking into compatibility or intalling something in the wrong place. Or altering with file paths by re-arranging stuff to make it 'Tidy' or by deleting neccessary files 
As for the geek police, if you are referring to tech support i agree that is absolutely sucks, hell i probably know more than them! But microsoft put exellent work into any game associated with them (if only in form of hard cash). Take the combat flight simulator, flight sim, train sim, midtown madness and of course the Halo series of games. All well worth the buy, but very specific games. If you dont like trains then err... dont get train sim. But you still have to admit their poroducts hardly ever run errors are very user freindly and are very good at being what theyre supposed to be. I dont even thing you can compare ST, or sega for that matter to microsoft, theyre on completely different scales. For a start Microsoft can throw huge amounts of money at things to make problems go away, but the end product is good, and they DO make money so someone must agree!
