@ Spr0k3tYes we are happy, us Mac users get the best of both worlds.The stability and security of an open source (mostly) foundation, and the usability of Apple's GUI.While it's nice that Linux is getting better, it still is not an OS that you can get work done quickly... the Linux guys at my uni can never seem to get their wireless working, any decent software or games.Mac users are happy with their proprietary machines because we can be productive, fast, produce awesome content and not to mention the best reason, Mac users can run OSX, Linux and Windows all quite easily on the same machine. The Compiz rainy cube gizmo thingy just doesn't cut it.

hagnar, you're a moron, don't you think it would be in nVidia's best interest to keep their Linux drivers updated & patched against security flaws & continue bug fixes? you can bet your bottom dollar nVidia sure would if they want to stay in business...
