Being a tinker-er it's just nice to sit down at something at the end of the day that just works.

On the other hand it is also powerful. A rich CLI and access to literally thousands of open source applications. Quartz is pretty amazing visually. Full and smooth animations right in the GUI thanks to hardware acceleration from just about any OpenGL card. Pre-emptive multitasking. Perfect font smooth. Drag and drop application installation. Never, ever having to install a driver. Lots of other things.

I'm not wed to Apple hardware which I guess is good given the switch to Intel. Where they impress me is the finishing touches and how every inch of their total package is by design. This is apparent just by the care taken to design the packaging their hardware comes in.
Lemonboy,

I have a new found respect for you as a fellow geek... because of that, I'll try... try to give the OS X a try... Who knows? I might buy one... after I buy the plasma... and the server I need... and the clutch for my car... etc...

I'll admit to what you say about their "finishing touches"... At least, hardware-wise, Apples are very well built (I think). I haven't spent more than 10 minutes in an Apple... hmmm....

I'll give it a try in the future... just don't tell Garden Knowm...
