Hi All,
There are lies, damn lies, and statistics.
Hey, both MAC and Linux are beating up on M$, especially since the launch (?) of Vi$ta.
I'm happily married to Linux and all those open source goodies. I've run M$ because it could do everything, but I could not run, through lack of experience, all that sat on my HDD.
Here I mean the Adobe suite. I can do Web Sites with Joomla!, post YouTube videos of my spinning 3D Linux Desktop, Forums with SMF, Blogs with a host of tools e.g. Wordpress, etc. I found my comfort zone, and this is with Linux Mint as my OS, and all those open source applications.
Hey, we are down and dirty, rip into everything that we can, and produce results. Linux has shown brilliant Desktop advances, and apparently so has the MAC.
I think that the argument that the MAC runs M$ Office is weak. So can Linux using Crossover Office. Besides that, we all run Open Office. Free, and open source.
BTW, from the Linux point of view - Games - are what seem to bother use. Although there are tons of Linux 3D FPS games out there. I've found a bunch. How does the MAC compare? If I have to, I'll try using WINE. That is also free and open source.
The Mac is not getting the global response that Linux is as was stated above.
Great article! Let the Force be with us!
