Hey guys,

I don't mean to sound cocky but, please, get a real OS for your next desktop computer.

We each have our preferences on a Platform. Each of "our" platforms is the "best", to our opinions.

I started with Windows back in its earliest days. I tried the first Mac systems, but never could afford to switch to a Mac. Now my desktop is Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit. I keep a Vista Laptop for the USB hardware and Windows-only software that I need from time to time. One day I will make it dual boot so I can have Ubuntu on it as well, but I still need a bit of Windows from time to time.

Drop Windows and get an intel iMAC. MAC OS X is built on Unix and, /*therefore*/, a highly reliable system (no such thing as "blue screen"). It also has a Unix shell built into the system which is pretty handy for me.

LibreOffice also seems to be a bit more stable on OS X than on StinkDows.

The main drawback for iMAC is price. However, to coin a phrase, "Try a MAC and you'll never go back!"

Best Regards,

Glenn

I stumbled onto a distro that, based on the screenshots, has a Mac "look and feel" to it. Got the .iso on the hard drive. :-).
What is the name of that distro? I'd like to check it out.
