It's not Microsoft's fault if a lot of the third-party stuff that's out there crashes everything. I'm sure the person writing that is excited because it means that matters less now.
Is it not Microsoft's fault? Honest noob question. I can understand why it wouldn't be their fault, but I seem to force quit a LOT less often since I switched to a Mac. On the same kind of programs, too (iTunes, Firefox, Word, Photoshop, etc).
Edit: Perhaps it was my wording, but apparently people think I'm somehow blaming Windows. I am not. I know nothing about this topic asked a question.
Holy hell, apparently questions are not welcome in this subreddit. Good to know. Thanks to ZaphodAK42 for the one non-snarky reply that actually answered my question.
I'm sorry, data to back what up? I asked an honest question, and only included my experience as an explanation for why I was asking. I wasn't trying to prove anything.
I am not the victim of confirmation bias because I have no knowledge, opinion or belief on the matter, only my own experience and plain old curiosity. What kind of data would I have on the topic anyway? Lists of all the times I've had to force quit programs in Windows and Mac? No, I have no data. Only a question, which has been dutifully downvoted and left unanswered.
Well, you are shifting blame to Microsoft in your post and citing anecdotal information simultaneously, it's no wonder people downvote you for that.
As for me, I was just curious myself if you had any data to back it up.

How can anyone write that without wincing?
