So it takes you 2 days just to remove all the crap from windows, nevermind getting it to do anything useful?

New viruses have hit the internet, explicitly aimed at OS X! The only solution seems to be upgrade to Apple's new version of OS X. But many OS X uers are complaining that the new version is very stripped down compared to the OS X they're accustomed to, lacking almost all of the bundled software OS X did before.

Update: It seems that Apple is now selling the software that was bundled on the OS X separately. Also, it's been estimated by users that only 10% of the third-party software for the OS X still works on the new version. That means that Apple is about the only source for software for users of the new OS X. Interestingly, OS X users are quite accpeting of Apple's tactics, saying only "they're just trying to make profits".

Nope. 30seconds or so to change the theme. 30-1 hour minutes to get rid of unwanted crap. Tweak. Install programs and utilities. Copy over files and music. Tweak. Run virus/ad-aware/spybot. Tweak.

I was talking from fresh install to finished products with all files and programs that I use.
