How well would OSX run on a 300Mhz CPU and a 6MB video card... I've heard
pather would be usable. I dont know for sure.
- Its Open-Source by design
- Durability: It breaths new life in old hardware. Out-fashioned doesnt
mean non-fonctional after all.
- Portability: Its a good thing for the developers because Linux is an OS that
run on *many* platforms...
- Choice: The user's ability to choose him environment according to his
needs and/or tastes.
- Stablility: It can run forever and a crashed application will (likely)
not bring the whole system down with it...
(I've heard OSX can do this just as well. Does it?)
- Who made OSX ?
Thats the most obvious one I could think of about "Linux over OSX". I have a very
little experience with OSX. I used, no, played with it mostly at the stores...
It never won my heart. A look at OSX's requirements ashamed me 'Nuff said :-)
