Operating Systems > macOS
An interesting question

makes me feel bad for selling someone a copy of Windows Molester Edition. /*then again the guy is an asshole*/ now i know he will go for microsoft shitware and maybe even buy an oem system with it on. and he will probably not try linux ever.
Chooco:
if Apple dominated the market then i would still rather have Linux.....i don't like Windows or MacOS because there's no console anymore or nothing runs in that console if it's still around. if mac dominated then we would be slamming Mac's "stupid flashy colors and GUI" just as we do for Windows now.
FreeBSD rox ;)

did't steve jobs leave apple for a while to form NeXT. what does one think NeXT step to be. it i a bsd 4.3 based unix. apple has probably been planing the move to unix for a long time. probably ever since steve jobs came back and apple bought out NeXT. and yes, windows does have a console and it is very usefull. at my school we always have a blast using M$-DOS to hack there computers. im seriuos. we got local admin acess in five minutes. we also made a machine boot up and not load its window manager, and also not load explorer. hmmm, maybe that would work as evidence....
actauully i prefer computer markets where there are many different places to buy parts. you can build a decent x86 machine for about 300. or 200 if youve got parts laying around. with ppc machines theres little chanche to buy and build your own that doesn't invovle a macintosh somewhere.
Chooco:
it would rock if they managed to get that MacOS thing be CONSOLE BASED meaning you login as console and you can do stuff in console just like Linux. it would make AWESOME servers and there's tons of compatible stuff in terms of games ;)
all Mac needs is FreeBSD with a GUI that is easy for dummies to use (like me). i don't mean that it wipes your ass for you but it would at least be simple.....simple as Windows but powerful as Linux (and actually include the console this time)

actaully you can do stuff like that, check out the fink project on source forge.i have seen the people on techtv/*mostly helping people with windows*/ bring up a teramanil on macosx, i have even seen xmms running on macosx, if you have macosx i would really recommend checking out the project
