Yeah! Mac is cool! But I prefer GNU/Linux Why not give GNU/Linux a try. Make your Windows XP with GNU/Linux dual boot.

PS: Do you know http://www.liewcf.com not display well on GNU/Linux firefox.

mypapit,

Mac OS X comes with the Mac you buy, so it is effectively part of the deal. And you do not need to buy costly commercial software afterwards. It runs many xBSD and Linux apps, console or X11. It is just a matter of recompile – check out Fink, Darwinport or Gentoo for Mac. There are also lots of open source Cocoa/Carbon apps. I bought my iBook 2 1/2 years ago, and I still have not had a need to spend more money on commercial software.

you could use darwin instead of mac os, and use all the software that you can commonly found in freebsd.

Mac OS? no thanks, their software is costly for a poor jobless guy like me. I rather stay with FreeBSD and GNU/Linux, their software is free, upgradable and reliable.

Been a linux user for a long time and switched to OSX a few years back. For a Unix user, the switch is painless. Many OSX users don’t really harness the power of its unix roots but its there if you want to learn. e.g. As I am ont the road a lot I access the internet from various places and sending mail can be a chore as various means of blocking spam means that legitimate users are also blocked. On my machine I run my own SMPT server and can surf in whatever country I am in via GPRS. However many ISP’s are blocking SMPT deliveries from dynamic addresses.

Dude, you gotta switch! I personaly don’t have one, but I use an iMac nearly everyother day if not every day (a friend has one).
The OSX Os is GREAT! I love the style…
