This should be a conclusive testimony to the quality of Mac hardware.

"Oh, and part of it is that I got the machine for free," said Torvalds, "I'm really a technology whore."

I wonder who gave it to him.

(And, no, I didn't RTF mailing list.)

I'd run Linux on a Dual G5 system if someone gave me one for free, too!

Actually... that's a lie.  I'd stick with OS X or BSD.

Stop being such a consumer whore.  If someone gives you a toaster, scramble eggs.  :p
