Ubuntu Linux vs. Mac OS X 479
An anonymous reader writes "An article on InformationWeek pits an Apple user against an Ubuntu Linux user (although he talks about other distros as well) as to which OS makes a better desktop operating system. As might be expected, the conclusion seems to be "different strokes for different folks," but it's interesting to see Microsoft cut (mostly) out of the equation."

A PC and a Mac are actually the same car, except the Mac has the passenger door(s) and the trunk welded shut.

I only own one hammer: a 16-ounce claw hammer with a fiberglass shaft and the proper balance to give a good, powerful swing.
And it worked great on my last Windows box. :p

Windows is like a mid-size luxury SUV. Apple is like a Fox Terrier. And Ubuntu is like a Pomegranate. Except, not in the *same* analogy, of course.
Don't you get it now?

You unpack the Mac; plug the CPU into the wall socket;
Ok, unpacked ok. Got the CPU right here. Wall socket - doesn't look like it fits much, must be some weird adapter. I'll try anyway.
ARGH!!! It Burns!!!!!!
Damn Apple, I thought this was a real breakthrough - I'm going back to Windows 3.1.
