Windows Vista versus Mac OS X in Shakespearean duel!

[Count of Montesano]

So CNET has just published an article comparing how the new Vista performs as opposed to Mac OS X. But here's the twist - CNET photographed two Ren Faire actors acting out the challenge as if it was a duel from one of Shakespeare's plays.

The two "operating system lords" - Baron Vista and Count Mac - fight the following contests for the fair hand of the user maiden:

1. mounted combat = security
2. pugilism = performance
3. swords = usability
4. pistols = how well each system makes use of the latest hardware

I won't tell the ending but the article's photos are hillarious, especially if you know friends who do ren faire.

Nice review, but although I agree with the outcome, the review appears to be quite subjective - some real testing wouldn't hurt...
