Why Mac OS isn't the best OS around
,----[ Quote ]
| Finally, while Mac OS X is the security nightmare that's Windows, it's also
| less secure than Linux. In particular, I'm not quite sure what features Apple
| had in mind when they created QuickTime, but security clearly wasn't on the
| list. For example, in the last QuickTime update, the third of 2008, Apple
| fixed eleven!-count 'em eleven-security bugs.
|
| I love Mac OS, I really do, but as lovely as it is, it's not my true love
| when it comes to desktop operating systems.

| Someone asked me this recently. I don't have just one answer. I compiled a
| list of things I thought of and emailed it to my friend...then I thought I
| would post it here for future reference. Feel free to add to the list! There
| is also a forums thread on the same topic, that I remembered as I complied my
| thoughts, so I stole some of the ideas posted there.
|
| 1. Upgrade to the newest version legally and without paying money
| 2. Have the latest version of the operating system run faster than the
| previous version on the same hardware
| 3. Easily install and run different graphical interfaces if I don't like the
| default setup
| 4. Install twenty programs with one command
|
| [...]
|
| 21. Use almost any hardware and have a driver for it included with the
| operating system...eliminating the need to scour the internet to find the
| hardware manufacturer's website to locate one
| 22. Get the source code for almost anything, including the OS kernel and most
| of my applications

Why Mac OS X Sucks and Linux Rocks
,----[ Quote ]
| For now, I decided to quit using Leopard (except when I want to take funny
| and distorted pictures), and I am more determined than ever in making Linux
| (Xubuntu) fully compatible with my Macbook Pro. You may ask why I think Linux
| rocks.
