ok, i'd go into detail but i don't feel like it. however, i don't think apple represented themselves very well. if this sort of thing happened in the pc world, the mfr would be ripped apart by their followers, and they have been.
i've seen mac zealots, and there really seem to not be on this board. the type of people that will use extremely offensive terminology to simply describe someone that disagrees with any aspect of the mac (including the release of the g5). i think that's a little excessive, and not something i've ever seen out of a pc user. i'm sure it happens.
the os is very nice, it's all good technology. it just hasn't been my preference, and i'm a sucker for gadgetry and fast things. so, that's my stance.
in the meantime, while deciding what i want to do, i'll cross my fingers some of this software starts leaking to the general *nix community.
