What makes it invalid?
In reply to this comment by budzos:
It's an invalid argument against the Christian god, who is really the only widely followed, omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent, singular creator god I can think of.
Apple tried licensing the OS in the 90s and it failed pretty hard. Most Macheads would say that the reason Macs "just work" is because the software and hardware is so well matched. Windows has to support so many configurations, drivers and computer types that it's a jack of all trades - master of none.
In reply to this comment by xxovercastxx:
Apple makes Apple computers with Apple operating systems that only run on Apple-approved hardware. It's a DMCA violation to attempt to work around this. Microsoft dreams of this kind of control over their platform, but if they even think too long about ways to do it, someone drags them into court.
I compare Macs to appliances. You would not buy a DVD player and consider rewriting the firmware; a Mac and its OS are no less unified. That's not a critique on their capabilities, it's just to say that it's all one package.

Well, now that's just a ridiculous statement. How are Macs any more an "application console" than a Windows PC?
In reply to this comment by xxovercastxx:
The debacle that is the App Store is obviously far worse, but even on their desktop systems they still have unparalleled control over the platform. A Mac is more of an application console than a computer.
There are pluses and minuses to that, of course, but that's how I sees it.

Smart-arseery around Apple products? I'm shocked. Shocked I am Sir.
I don't know of any lock-down strategies for Macs. iPhone/ipad definitely. who knows, that could be Apple's downfall.

Reddit does actually run on linux servers, I was just being a smartass. I didn't realize Mac had migrated to bash, but I was being a smartass about that, too. I'm well aware that OSX is a glorified BSD. On one hand that's great for stability and such; on the other hand I could just install BSD on any hardware and not be tied down by Apple's lock-in strategies.

Well, I don't know what Reddit runs on - but I'd guess standard Linux gear.
And if I want to get to a bash prompt on a Mac, I just open a terminal window and I'm there. Sometimes people forget that Macs have a BSD backend- and that's why it's often a hacker's laptop of choice- Perl, Apache, vi emacs, sed, awk and most of your other standard command line tools are baked right in.

Alternative titles:
- If gwiz was a dog.
- If blankfist was a chicken.
- If westy's mouth was a wooden crate.
I actually expected this to be a gwiz submission. He had a little rape-streak going a while back. With the videos, I mean.
