[HingVista]

Ryan Block on Engadget posted a nice Windows Vista vs Mac OS X Leopard feature comparison chart today. There no doubt, Vista and Leopard are both extremely advanced, feature rich consumer operating systems. We know we're not even going to be able to stop the epic fanboy arguments about break out over this one, so we just ask that you try to keep it fair. Leopard vs. Vista: it's on.

NOTE: This chart is only for out of box features, and does not take into account 3rd party software.

* Green indicates a category with more and/or better features, and generally a better user experience.
* Red indicates that a category not quite up to snuff. Either it doesn't yet exist in the OS or it just sucks more than the alternative.
* † (dagger) indicates a category we think are too subjective or not similar enough to judge. These do not have any clear winner.
* ‡ (double dagger) indicates a category that is in many ways subjective, but that we feel one category is still ahead. Your own tastes may vary.

The score is sooo close, Leopard just winning by 4 points
This just shows that both Leopard & Vista are such alike (in one way or another of course lol)

[ShamusHand]

Very close competition, but some features could have gone either way in my opinion.

[Frylock86]

Ouch. Tough call.

Apple really had an oppertunity to shine here.....

[Optimal Vista]

vista now has a chance to approve and possibly beat leopard for a while at least ....

You know Mac has less 3rd party softwares in comparison to Windows, and don't forget about DirectX 10 and the big library of Games for Windows.

Why does everybody compare apple with M$, Linux is almost like the apple os but more developed...

[Afzal]

hmm...agreed....

Read these two articles:
Why Leopard Is Better than Vista
Why Leopard Isn't Better than Vista

[Bogdan]

Why not have both?

i saw no activation for Leopard.
I'll get Leopard to work on my PC.
Tiger worked fine.

[winmatrix2007]

what a challenge i like leopards finder better then Vistas explorer

[Laguna]

I think my opinion is a little different

But it's cool anyway...

I just use Vista because using MAC OS X in a PC is killing Apple. When I get the money I need I will run to a Mac.

[exxon007]

both Jobs and Gates are too rich already! Apple is messed up for not letting OSX run on PC's, while Microsoft is riddled with viruses and spywares.

[TheGreenMan]

Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. I personally prefer Vista.

[varunkumar]

For me vista is the best.
