Too Many Linux Distributions?

,----[ Quote ]
| NOT. No thanks. I want to live in a world 
| where I have a choice. Where Jake can come 
| along and tell me about a Linux distribution 
| that I have never heard of before, but which 
| is so right for his needs that he gets all 
| excited in writing about it. A world where one 
| of the major Linux distributions can stumble, 
| and either make a major mistake, or just take 
| a couple of years to get out the next version, 
| and all the others just keep moving ahead, so 
| I can use whichever one works best for me at 
| the time.

Mac computers are restrictive.

,----[ Quote ]
| There are amazing PC laptop computers that you can buy for $600
| comparing to Apple latops that are usually around $1300 and more.
| Apple computers are overpriced, proprietary, restrictive and
| protectionist. This might not be a good direction to be heading
| into. Could Apple prove to be even more restrictive and opressive
| than Microsoft?
