Apple iMAC touch!?

[Indybird]

Over here.

Im thinking that could be it because apple had hinted at such a device, nvidia does a lot of apple hardware AND it kinda looks like an oversize iPod Touch.

So are Macs.. they are just in denial (OSX)

And by OSX, you mean FreeBSD with stuff tacked on.

Oops, my bad. Crenn has it nailed.

"Hey, lets take Linux, and make it proprietary, and then claim it's better than everything else out there, including Linux! Even better, let's lock it down so it runs on regular hardware, as long as it's on our tiny little list of acceptable hardware. THEN.. we'll make it inconvenient to run OTHER operating systems on our hardware, which is the same as everyone elses!"

My Apple Commercial:

Mac: "Hello, I'm a Mac"
PC: "And I'm a PC. And so is he."
Mac: "No, I'm a Mac."
PC: "A Mac with an Intel Processor, that can run Windows. You are a PC."
Mac: (Head Explodes)
PC: "I suppose you'll chalk that up to user fault."

Comparing a Mac to a PC is like comparing Coke to soda...

In the end Coke is still a soda and Mac is still a Personal Computer.

You're lucky we don't have any huge BSD fans here, BSD is not Linux. BSD is University of California-Berkley's Unix, Linux is Linus Torvalds' Unix (not entirely accurate, but you get the picture). They also have two different licenses. The "BSD" license is more liberal than the GPL. Apple could not legally do what they did (taking FreeBSD code and not releasing modifications back to the community) with Linux, that would violate the GPL, while it's perfectly legal under the "BSD" license.
