What's the difference between waiting for apple to fix a bug, and waiting for Linus or AC to fix it? Sure, Linux is OpenSource, but based of your comments, I seriously doubt you'd be able to debug the kernel and patch it. So, by your logic, when the 2.2.x DoS was found, Linux was labled "worthless" for the 5 hours before AC had the patch. Linux was also "worthless" when all the other bugs were discsovered, and will be "worthless" again when more are found before they're squished. Using this logic, NT will always be worthless....:)
I am an apple user myself, but I also use Linux & *BSD. Competition is good, bias is bad. Linux is making such big waves in the industry today... and causing only one major OS vendor, Apple, to open it's OS (even if only partially). The linux coverage would fall under the other heading "Stuff that Matters".

The new tower looks like a cheese grater and has less HD and Optical bays! Argh. Nice specs, ugly case.
twm. My friend doesn't even have a mouse attached anymore... he has keybindings or everything in twm... you just don't get the new "desktop" features.
Looks to me like it's actually GMT instead of EDT.
