Slashfan writes "It has been widely reported allovertheInternet that it is extremely easy to get the Intel port of Mac OS X to run on regualar PC boxes.
Some of the hackers are running the tweaked version of the operating system on their PCs natively." Pardon my skepticism ;)
So Windows' poor programming, poor security, and poor usability is all because it has to run on generic PC hardware. Yeah right.
The real problem with Windows isn't that it crashes so often (in 2000 and XP I rarely encounter an OS level crash); it's Window's extremely poor security. Spyware is so prevalent on Windows partially due to its popularity, but primarily due to its insecurity.
Put OS X on a generic box vs Windows on the same and one will be the clear leader.

Fuck Apple. They wan't total control over computers that run their OS. Fine. I won't run it.
Unless of course this story is for real. If it is, I might actaully learn something.
And another thing. FUCK APPLE. You think just because you are a hit in the gay community you can force your users in to a rediculouse vendor lock in? Ha. Fags stick all kinds of shit up their ass al the time, reguardless of manufacturer. You can't change this so don't try. Fucking Steve Jobs wearing a black turtleneck. Shit....
