Listen, I like much about the Mac and hate MicroSoft. I myself use Linux. Last time I looked it was still against the whim of the Almighty Jobs(who is not that nice of a person, just look at the way he treated Woz) to install the x86 OSX on a non-Apple piece of hardware, say what you want about openDarwin but Apple has not been that supportive of the project. So, how much would it cost me to get OSX on my Dual-Core Opteron? not possible legally.
as a matter of fact he does and he did.....did you forget his Mothers little remark about 'you people' to the suvivors in the Astrodome. The apple did not fall far from the 'Bush'.
Listen,
As a fellow Ubuntu user since 4.10 I can speak to this as well. The ATI binary drivers just don't work without a huge mess of tweaking. All you have to do is go to the UbuntuForums and do a search on ATI 3D Drivers and you will come across a motherload of walkthrus that did not work for me. I rely on the xorg-fglrx-driver that Ubuntu packages. ATI still has a long way to go before they have the confidence of the Linux community.
