    Come on... enoug of the piracy to spread acceptance theories for crist sakes.

    If Steve Jobs had the balls. He would ship a version of his amazing OS X that would run on most current INTEL chips. Then we'll see who has the "best" OS.

    But he won't and Apple will gain about 2% more market share and probably slap the living piss out of the first poor bastard stupid enough to post a modded version of his precious OS.

    Yeah but there's always DARWIN! Sure... that'll shut'm up!
