@mdhughes@appdot.net I've never been clear on what non-Mac people think MacOS is likeI've used Mac OS before, here's some examples of how I feel about it:
* Feeling like a lawyer by having to read through and accept a bunch of EULAs to be allowed to use it.
* Feeling spied on because an online account is required to unlock a lot of features of the operating system.
* Feeling jailed into a walled garden because your software is artificially locked to the hardware, you can't legally run it on non-Apple hardware.
* Feeling financially robbed because the tools you need to develop software require an additional subscription fee.

I personally do not care about my operating system being "real unix" or not. I currently use GNU/Linux because I think it is the best freedom respecting operating system out there at the moment. I would have no trouble switching to other free operating systems like ReactOS or Plan 9 if those were better than GNU/Linux.

I also do not care about technical and functional reasons why Mac OS might be better. Freedom is my first priority and everything else comes second.
