I like one of the comments below...
"Actually, he was comparing it to Windows, which has way more market share than OS X. Still, just another way in which you're wrong, because market share is NOT an indication of quality."

Kinda like Faux News, just because it has high ratings, doesn't mean it's quality news.
Much like putting up any show on Discovery Channel against Big Brother, of course Big Brother will have way more ratings. But which of the two shows will have more substance and learning value? lol

This says it all. M$ & Apple keep their serfs on a tight leash. I saw this tears ago and freed myself of them with Linux. The more I use Linux the happier I am. It's nice to be free of their hooks....

"I don't think they're equally flawed - I think Leopard is a much better system," he said. "(But) OS X in some ways is actually worse than Windows to program for. Their file system is complete and utter crap, which is scary."

He poured scorn on the modern trend to treat a new version or update of an operating system as a cause for major celebration and marketing.

"An operating system should be completely invisible," he said. "To Microsoft and Apple (it is) a way to control the whole environment ... to force people to upgrade their applications and hardware."

As for his own operating system, Linus said the most exciting developments were Linux's improving green credentials, and a push into mobile devices such as the One Laptop per Child project and Asus's new ultra-cheap Eee PC.
