        For every value in the registry key:

        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\hahahahahaha s NT\CurrentVersion\Svchost

        ...you will have 1 svchost.exe process. A process can be 1 or more individual services that are grouped together.

        The purpose is to load DLL libraries that contain service processes. (Rpc, ect..)

                  You actually do. Do a ps -aux in a shell sometime. OS X is a microkernel... which means that it has a minimal kernel (the memory management and scheduling part) and the drivers and everything are loaded as processes. That way... if your sound card driver fucks up... it takes down a process that can be respawned instead of taking down the whole kernel space.

                  That and a lot of hippy pot smoking and shrooming in Cali are the reason your apple "just works."

                    I meant I don't have to deal with it. Yes it's there behind the pretty interface but as a user you don't really have to deal with it at all. Unless you feel like opening up a terminal and fucking around.

                      Fair enough... although OS X's power is in it's BSD core. In 1 chained command I can edit a video, make thumbs of the video, hahahahahaha all those thumbs and place them in a gallery template.

                      How many steps is it for you w.indows people?
