People have incorrectly assumed that Samba must implement the methods described in these patents. In fact, the methods described in these patents are quite inappropriate for a Unix/POSIX CIFS implementation such as Samba. It would not even be possible to implement the methods described in these patents in a portable POSIX application. Instead, Samba treats the SMBreadbraw and SMBwritebraw protocol elements in the same way as all other elements of the CIFS/SMB protocol. This means that Samba should be completely unaffected by the existence of these patents. Microsoft claims that Samba is infringing anyway.
I suggest you re-read the GP's post. Hell, just the part you quoted is sufficient:
"Just because OS X is 'like Unix' doesn't mean that's all it is." (Emphasis mine)
See, GP is telling you that OS X is a unix-alike with a whole lot more. If you're installing software that hooks into the extensions, installation goes very smoothly. In particular, one can install software into one's home directory. If one is installing software that doesn't hook into the extensions, one would best be served by using a package manager, like Fink (which is a goddamned port of the apt suite and an OS X specific apt repository). Note that this is the solution to installing software in other Unix-alikes as well.
Now, I suggest you practice reading some more, as your reading comprehension is scoring very low marks today.

Pre-release development platforms aren't something you want to base speculation on. What does this tell us about Apple's new machines? It only tells us that the processor's intruction set is compatible with the P4's. Big deal, we already knew that. You still don't know what processor is going into the final product, nor do you know what kinds of bussing or extending functionality the motherboard is going to have.
I have to admit, I mischaracterized what happened. The patients he gave transfusions to were already infected with Ebola. He gave them the blood of convalescant Ebola patients, and 87.5 of them survived. See this. Plans are being made to study the phenomenon on a much larger scale with the next big Ebola outbreak.

Did anyone see that Discovery Channel show a few (seven?) years ago about the Ebola virus and how one doctor noticed that one in one hundred or so survive and asked the survivors for blood samples and injected the samples in uninfected villagers and almost all of them survived despite being exposed to the contagion? That was neat.
In Latin, the AE is pronouned like an "ai" dipthong and c's are always hard consonants. So Caesar would be pronounced like "Kaiser" and by analogy Caesium would be pronounced "Kaisium."
And yes.. I do remember seeing some ruling or other from a judge in the US that men were no longer allowed to marry women. Sorry to hear about that.
Unless there was another incident, I believe you are referring to the fact that the city of Portland, Oregon, stopped issuing marriage licenses to heterosexual couples last year until the legal status of same sex marriage was clarified with respect to the state constitution. The constitution offered equal protection under the law, and didn't legally define marriage, so offering marriage licenses to some and not others was possibly illegal discrimination. Portland awaited the ruling of the State Supreme Court. Sadly, a constitutional amendment was passed denying the right of marriage to same sex couples.
Really, though, this falls under my comment that if you don't do anything illegal, they will have no reason to search the apartment.
And that comment is obviously wrong. Here are some nice statistics. Between October 1, 1999 and September 30, 2000, 115,589 people were arrested by the Federal government. Of those, only 87,006 were prosecuted. Of those, only 68,156 were convicted. It is apparent that a lot of innocent people are investigated, with all which that entails, by the Federal government.
That is to say, some 50,000 innocent people had enough evidence compiled against them to be arrested. At the very least, an arrest was likely a major inconvenience, if not a severe disruption of their lives.

Now that you mention it, they call themselves Cyberdyne Corp. on the official webpage for an earlier model.

I wonder if this has anything to do with Apple's recent *ahem* announcement.

Now, when can we expect Etch?
to think of something smart to say about this, but I came up short. This story is really dry.
Pentagons have always had three points. They just always have two left over.

Too bad Shredder already patented this. Maybe Master Splinter can license the technology.
Brilliant.
