back on topic, im thinking about alternating my alreadey stated one to an amalgam of various people, huge one arm from say a body builder but another skinny arm with a huge curved blade instead of a hand, some realy inconsistant body growths and shapes with the face of chubicabara

so nothing to complicated

This is America, and I'm in Vegas.
Free speech and beer are easy to come by.
And I'm not restricted, I'll work with anything, I just prefer Mac OS.
And remember, Boot Camp (or VMWare/Parallels) will run anything on a mac.

You pay for your operating system and the majority of your software (and extra for the privilege of Apple's inferior hardware, too), and you have no rights to modify your OS or the vast majority of the software you use. That's not very free.

(Sidenote: Mac OS is rubbish. KDE looks better, is more user friendly, and is less resource-intensive. Yes, I have used it, it's installed on our computing course computers.. sigh. They're a few years old now; my tutor's the head of teaching and says if he was redoing the computing course he'd go Linux.)

Not that inferior.
Getting better.
And just because we don't have the 'rights' to modify doesn't mean we don't.
Hell, it's fun that way.

Inferior enough that paying a huge premium for it is beyond silly.

The amount of modification possible is seriously limited when you have no access to the source code.

True, source code's locked.
Doesn't prevent tweaking.
Besides, the source thing doesn't bother me - I don't have the patience (or knowledge, yet) to mess with the actually code.
It's not a huge premium: it's a reasonable one for something that looks beautiful and isn't a cheap piece of plastic half-covered with stickers.
Being a gamer and tweaker, Apple annoys me.
But it's still better, in my eyes.

My computer isn't a "cheap piece of plastic half-covered with stickers". Custom builds all the way.
And even the really crap OEM ones can't possibly look worse than this..


You don't need much patience or knowledge to tweak the source code yourself (I've made minor changes to things) and none at all to take advantage of other people being able to.

You had to find the worst looking picture of it.

We're not going to persuade the other, I see little point in continuing the conversation.
The fact that I've had a long day with little sleep could have something to do with it, but yeah.
