HA, I laugh at the typical suspense propaganda from Apple.

+1 for OS X 'Lion' (innovation is always good thing... for the most part >_

It would take a new Desktop based off Sandybridge Core i7 processors with AMD HD 6000 series graphics with only a couple hundred dollar mark up, instead of the usual $500-1000 to get me interested in a Mac.

Sadly that will never happen.

There are no German Tanks called "Lion", WTF!?

Maybe the Mac court will get lucky and only get a Samsung A4 processor. After all, it's all they need.

It would be nice if Apple had "Official Partners" that could sell "Official Hackintosh", offering a budget clone-Apple, instead of being so territorial. More luv, less grudge. ;-)

it's only worth a damn if there's no drm restrictions and can play games as well as everything else windows can do, until then linux has it beat.

There's an Apple Mac Pro VS PC Hackintosh build comparison: http/benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=623&Itemid=38&limit=1&limitstart=5 Only problem is, updating is so risky, it's a waste of time if you intend to build it for work (unless you don't update). If Apple provides their own motherboards to an Official Hackintosh Partner, they can still control who can use their OSX & maybe offer an "inferior" OSX to them & sell even more Mac stuff, keyboards, mice, PC enclosures, monitors, etc..

But Linux can not play games and everything else that windows can do while also having a significantly worse setup then OSX for simple things like installing software on your own. OSX is a closed experience but is a very good one, while Linux is an open experience but rather poor. Windows 7 being the best of both!

Apart from playing certain games what exactly is it that linux can't do that windows can?

Installing software on linux is a piece of cake, and what makes linux a poor experience? because there are a lot of people that much prefer the linux experience than windows or mac

I don't think that Apple's naming scheme is based on German Panzers of World War II.It would be interesting though.

You're right, Leopard is post WWII ;-) As for Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, & Lynx. They're all German WWII & post WWII German Panzer.
