Why do I defend linux? Because I like it and I'd rather not have people spewing misinformation about it.

Um... WTH? OSX is possibly the easiest to use GUI I've ever used, have any examples of how there is no 'short' way to do anything? Or how it is 'the most complex OS ever'? And did you know, you can plug just about any USB mouse on the planet into a Mac (doesn't even need to be OSX) and all the buttons will work? <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

I really don't get why people keep saying MacOSX is hard to use, especially since not one of them can give an example. Guess what, when you use a different OS then the one your used to, things are going to be different. So if 'it doesn't work exactly like Windows' is your argument against its ease of use, don't even bother posting.
I've heard of people complaining about OSX crashing constantly, but i've never heard it outside this forum. It may be happening constantly for you, though that would make me suspect some mischief is being done.
Its hard to upgrade? In what way? Do you mean that iMacs are hard (actually, pretty imposible) to upgrade, or that the towers that open to give easy access to the PCI slots are hard to upgrade?
Nothing is supported? What, you mean like Windows apps? Does Windows support OSX apps? What do you mean by this?

Well yeah, it doesn't have the market share of Windows, so less game companies are going to bother porting games to it. But some do port, UT2k3 for instance. If bungie hadn't been bought by MS, Macs would have had Halo long before it was released for the Xbox. My point is that you can't fault an OS because it doesn't have as much 3rd party support... well you can I guess, it just doesn't make alot of sense, I mean, how are they to get more 3rd party support if no one is willing to use their OS because of a lack of 3rd party support?
