 I don't like linux. And I wouldn't run linux just for spaces. By the way, get a clue, Creative sued Apple first, creative claims apple stole there software design of the zen. Apparently, your not allowed to catagorize your music my Artist, Playlist, and Genre  . By the way, Apple promotes that it is built of linux. Mircrosoft is denying how much they ripped of OS X. So, microsoft has ripped off Linux and OS X. Linux is obscure and buggy at best. And OS X is kind of based on Linux, AND Apple promotes that fact. So be quite. 
Thanks for proving how little you know about both OSX, Linux, and computers in general. 1) OSX is loosely based on UNIX.
2) Linux is far from obscure/buggy. It's extremely scalable, and thus is used all over the place, from servers to PCs to DVD players.
3) Apple does NOT promote that's it's based on Linux, I don't think they want to be promoted as liars. Further, if it was based on Linux, then OSX would likely be illegal.
4) Creative did sue Apple yes- Apple's even worse about it though. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Apple monopolizes EVERYTHING they can get a grasp on.
5) My point about the ripping ideas is that saying this stuff is "new" is utter bullshit. It doesn't bother me so much that they're using the ideas.

Suffer? Let's see... by not using a mac, I save hundreds of dollars, hours of headaches, I get the ability to actually play games if I want to, I don't have to deal with Apple's monopolistic software, and I get access to a much, much larger variety of hardware and software. I'd say variety of OSes too, but Linux will run on a Mac. Yeah... apparently you call that suffering.

i got to agree with pleaseremove and the user who got tux as there avatar Relating to windows 2000 and xp Unless u had bad hardware or didn't know what you were doing then 2000 or xp were fine operating systems to use well after sp2 for xp come out it got a lot better believe me that msblaster worm drove me nuts yes windows is the most used OS and has i lot of bugs but so does macosx and Linux before anyone bring up spy-ware and virus it very easy to keep yourself away from them if you know what your doing Relating to macosx i got to agree that it more stable because of it UNIX underneath http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/unix/ there also fink for macosx and darwinports allow u to run unix programs but windows can just last as long as well the good thing about apple is there hardware just works aka no driver installs no need for anti-virus or worry about big time PC Trojan doing damage what do i like about apple instead of there hardware is there ilife suite it just works there apps are integrated with each other making them great tools if Microsoft ever bundle there OS with stuff like that i jump ship believe me i thinks mac get used more for creative stuff but I'm not sure if that changing now Relating To Linux i love tux as much as my heart will let me but he still got a long way to go even know the OS is free well most of them anyway for Linux you got to make sure you hardware works with it and you got to adapt to a whole new desktop enjoyment aka kde or gnome or for you terminal lovers you got fluxbox afterstep you name it just make sure u know the comand line and know how to complie from source depending if the programs come in binary form or not Relating to this thread in general i see leopard windows vista a major disappointed for one reason BLOATWARE for a number of reasons apple 1. do i need time machine nope i use superduper and like the old fashion way of backing up not apple way 2. spaces no need for it as there already freeware tools that do that on macosx 3. Dashboard no need and there widgets if u leave your computer on for more for a week have huge memory leaks Windows Vista do i need the new aero interface or widgets or windows live nope i like the old way aka msn the old look of xp or windows 2000 would be nice if they allow that and for Linux which i see as a big plus even if kde and gnome get bloated u always got windows mangers what i trying to say is all OS have there faults and all the speculation of the new OS are nice but they all come at a price which is money and the hardware to run it i know Linux is free but depending on how u do thing u got a hell of a learning curve Post edited at 10:48 pm on Sep. 23, 2006 by littleb2005
