OSX? Are your kidding us? You can safely assume that most of us understand the importance of free software and all the implications of using proprietary software. Why in the world would you tell us anyting about Mac?! What's OSX have to do with us anyway? OSX is the BSD-based UNIX-like of those who FOR YEARS have told everyone how grand Mac OS1-9 is, how horrible the CLI is, how grand the bloated and totally opaque GUI layer of Mac is and who, suddenly, unexplicably, have "seen the light" and now looooove UNIX. And, needless to say, the UNIX version they advocate is, what else, the ultra-proprietary OSX. Well guys, you were full of shit then and you are full of shit now. As far as UNIX is concerned - you are only wannabes. As far as freedom is concerned - you are little more than a source of income for large software corporations (including M$ who owns part of Apple) who have as much concern for freedom as Joe Stalin did.
