    By all accounts, Longhorn/Longwait/Vista also looks like Mac OS X.
    Seems like everyone is jumping on the bandwaggon:-)

    I run Ubuntu and OSX .

    They are very similar.

    Ubuntu is good. OSX is good too.

    They look similar.

    But are quite different.

    Linux has no quality software.

    Say no to Linux.

    I will only use Ubuntu if it smells *and* sounds like OS X, as well.
    Looking is not good enough.

    I find they do not smell the same at all.

    Oh Really?

    You think "Open Office" sucks? What about "Blender"? What about SMB?
    How much OS software transfered from Linux to OS X? The open-source
    community is growing and getting better. I guess you don't use Mac's
    Apache server. Did you know that "Shrek" was made with 100% Linux OS?
    ILM uses SUZE? Novell isn't "quality software"? ROTFLMFAO! They seem to manage....

    I guess Opinions are like assholes... Some people use them for giving advice.
