I think it was aliens too. But if you want a 'puter that has 20 times more programs written for it than Mac, stick with Windows. I'm not going to argue XP vs. Vista, or 32-bit vs. 64-bit, but I like Vista better. It will ask permission before it installs an ActiveX on any website. Then it will ask you again so you don't accidentally install anything you didn't really want. My PC is turned on almost 24/7 and it downloads all the updates automatically, every day.
