I'm sure after reading this, some red-faced genius will be inspired to substitute the Mac OS for Windows in the list above, gleefully pointing out there's an X in our favorite operating system's name. Then they'll copy the list and do the substitution for us and post it on Slashdot or someplace.
But then again, copying is what Windows is all about, isn't it?
