Hey! How dare you! This is Slashdot...

Every time I try to mention the nice eye candy in OS X, I always get slapped with "The best application in OS X is something called bash." Morons. I know that. But bash doesn't look pretty... well, not in a "Oooooh, look at the pretty colors" sort of way. It's beautiful in that it's simple, usable, stable, and ... cryptic.

I don't want a command-line desktop. I want command-line servers. Desktop pretty. Server ugly. Pretty server UI useless. (Ugg!)

So, before you Linux zealots start coming out of the woodwork... let me remind you about us Mac zealots. There may be a helluva lot less of us, but we're a *WHOLE* lot more crazy!!!

(All in jest - Happy Independance Day, to all of you in the world's favorite consumer-culture.... I'm going home!)

insensitive clod!

I just switched my Powerbook to Ubuntu. So, now I get the added advantage of no composite video out and other 'goodies'. I'm tempted to switch back, but I really don't like Aqua (apart from the look).
