Evidently you've never even seen a Mac, so do yourself a favor and go to an Apple store and experience a Mac first hand, and if your lucky, it will start to reverse the Microsoft brainwashing you've been exposed to.

Macs are crap; I know, I have one. It's like Linux lacking everything you use Linux for (root command line, powerful networking, stability, speed, edibility, the best open source support, need I go on?).

 

If you don’t want Microsoft, going to apple “just cuz” is a dumb reason, Linux is the only real alturnitive, macs are just something nice to look at.

 

Give me one real; useful (not one of the "oh that's nice..." ones macs seem prone to) tool mac has that Linux can not have in one of it's many distributions.

I didn't ask for your opinions. All I wanted was to know what OS you use, in fact, I should have made this a "Poll Only".

I have used all. But my favorite operating is not around anymore, VMS. Unix was developed on RSX/11M. The predecessor of VMS. Linux of course is similar to Unix.

 

RSX/11M and VMS were products of Digital Equipment.

I'm not tryin to be "snippy", it's just that the very first post after mine says that Macs suck, and that they should be thrown off a bridge, I didn't want to start again the age old battle between Operating Systems, and that is exactly what they were doing.

 

So from now on, can we just answer the Poll Question please?

How is that any different from your reply that macs are so superior?

 

As I see it your defending macs is far more fire for a OS war then someone stating their opinion about them…

Your edits changed your point of view. I do not think you needed to edit your posts. That is just my two cents.

XP. I would love a linux, far superior than mac or microsoft. If pushed I will settle for Microsoft for one reason, too many of these modern Macs are dropping after computer literate people install Macs update programs. Until that design flaw is solved, they will be an expensive also run to Microsofts monolpolisation of cheap and semi effective operating systems.

I believe the Cats were:

OS 10: Cheetah

OS 10.1: Puma

OS 10.2: Jaguar

OS 10.3: Panther

OS 10.4: Tiger

and the next one OS 10.5, will be called Leopard.

 

Do you like your Mac?
