I would ask that you take me off the blacklist. I do not mean to post 3 replys at a time but I can't cut and paste for some reason on Wincustomize where I am posting from.

I like a good debate but will not argue about macs anymore.

By the way in the thread I did not say anything about a 1000 dollar monitor. I meant a 1000 dollar machine with a included monitor.

I disagree that the three OSes in question are not comparable. After all, they are all three operating systems. All three provide an interface between applications and hardware and all three do a pretty good job of allowing the user to organize and launch applications and documents.

Windows has separate versions for desktop and server use, and Linux is the same for both. I don't know if MacOS (or OSX, or whatever it's called) is good for servers, or has a separate version, or what...I don't do the Mac thing. But my point is, it's the differences that make it worth comparing. After all, how much fun is it comparing apples to apples?

Yes OSX can

after all its just Unix in a nice and fluffy skin.

Hey Baldgye how about you repost the article and we discuss what points we may? If you don't I can. I saved a copy.

Absolutely? I thought the idea of creating a post was to invite comments, so yeah, I think it is petty/childish of an OP to hide a thread and/or blacklist someone because some responses were not expected or to his/her liking. OK, so we don't always appreciate certain comments (not all opinions are valuable to everyone) but that doesn't mean others can't appreciate or learn from them.

Selective reading is usually the best way to deal with these things... read past those threads/posts of no particular interest and go to something that is. Censorship, unless something breaks the rules or is blatantly offensive, is not the best way to handle things, as most do not welcome 'gagging' and it willl put them off-side.
