Yep.

Windows sucks.

Mac rules.

Thank you for your time.

Don't care about your schools librarian. Virtual PC runs bloody excellent on my G4.

How does OSX handle VirtualPC? My school's librarian is having major problems with it, presumably because it is emulating OS9 which is emulating x86/Windows, or something.

Luke, I haven't read that site, but from memory it requires you to compile a UNIX OS and run X off it. It's not the same as running GNOME from OSX.

Yeah sorry, I get confused. However OS X is the best operating system I have ever used, its the most stable and it emulates OS 9.2 for people like me :)

Mac's rule, the sales show that. Whats that I hear? More profit than Microsoft.... well done Mac.

Hi Rob, luke here to correct your mistakes again.

You can't run GNOME on your OSX box? Try fink.sf.net. And please check things before you spout them.

Wrong.

OSX has a UNIX base, and the similarities end there. It doesn't even have BASH as the default prompt, and I don't think you could run GNOME on MacOSX is you wanted to.

Again: OSx has very, very little to do with Linux at all.

OSX is Linux based.

They worked together.
