the use profanity negates any logical (and for you, illogical) argument you are trying to make. go get vasectomy to go along with that lobotomy to clean out the gene pool for future generations. for the love of god, do it now you ignorant freak.
buy a dell for about $500 less with comparable specs. with a dell at least you can dual boot into linux/windoze. but of course, if you like to wait a year...2 years..before some software that came out on windoze comes out on a mac, more power to you. i would think that more for a home environment where you write reports, surf the net, share files on your favorite p2p program, a PC would be a more appropriate solution.
slashdot is a place where news, percieved to be important to nerds in the near or distant future, is discussed and debated. So what if the stories are copied and pasted from other sources. The stories are just the tip of the iceberg; the real magic of slashdot is in the discussions and the posts that come about as a result of the story. If the story has any inaccurate points and/or claims, they are pointed out by the posters. Slashdot is a prime example of many brains picking at a story, and in the end the result is much more than the news or story that sparked the discussions. So whose journalistic integrity are you going to trust: 1) some news organization whose sole purpose is to spew back the same crap over and over again, and embelish its stories to sell you stuff you don't need OR 2) a discussion site like slashdot where creative people express their opinions on the story and really help to present a truer picture of what the news is really about, without any hidden agendas to sell you any products. You make the choice.
porting OSX to x86 should not alienate developers since they probably wont notice the difference. This is because the underlying OS API remains the same for them (darwin). It is the same with Linux and Unix implementing the POSIX API on different hardwared architectures.
