Some intelligent and well informed people like Macs, some intelligent and well informed people like Linux or BSD or Unix, can we leave it at that? Personally I love Linux and now that I know what the hell I'm doing with it I prefer it far more to Mac OS X but that doen't mean everybody will, so quit your bitching about "technical merits" everybody. And for fucks sake what the hell is with cars? What in gods name do cars have to do with PC's? Although if anyone wants to start a Windows/Intel/AMD box = a Lada Niva analogy I would be most grateful.
