okay this is old... so probably you've seen this before but...

http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=2996

great quote....

'While UNIX says ``I'm sorry you can't do that'', MacOS has exactly two 
error messages. It either goes ``eep?'' or the setup box is simply not 
there until 12 other unidentified items have been installed and three 
apparently unrelated dialog boxes have been completed. Mine was an error 
of the latter category.

...

After four hours of fighting with the completely alien Macintosh 
archiver tools, I had the machine talking AppleTalk shares to a Linux 
box using Netatalk, as well as insight into why Macintosh people meeting 
a PC for the first time look as if they'd just discovered alien life 
forms. '

i just *love* those 'eep?'s .. they're so cute!!!!
