Call me crazy but does anyone feel like I do?? A not so interesting thing happened to me yesterday, but I felt it showed a fine illustration between the computing world, that of OS's, and the real world... Here's what happened

So I am driving home in my little 1988 Toyota tercel. A small 80s Japanese car with over 180,000 miles, some rust, and a large dent in the hood, but she runs like a champ. As I'm driving I get behind a brand new Toyota Prius. Now I understand why hybrids are so important in the world we live in and I try to conserve as much as possible, but I still think the cars are very ugly and I think we should be looking more into hydrogen power than anything. Anyways so we are going up a hill, not to steep, but this car is going 20 mile/hour!!! Ok I know these things can go faster, but as I come close to the silver probe from a bad 60s space movie, I see to my surprise a Mac sticker of the back!

Now I must explain my feelings on Macs in order for you to get the point. Apple Computer **shudder** has the iPod, good product, iTunes, another good product, Mac, BAD PRODUCT, OS/x build off of a Unix Shell, wants to be "hip and cool" but users just fool themselves by paying a large price for a mediocre product.
My friend, a music major, bought his first mac and thinks its the coolest thing ever, but there is one problem, HE CANT USE IT!!! He doesn't know the first thing about them, and refuses to learn! I had to port over all his mp3s. I hadn't the slightest clue howto but with a quick google I had in done in a few minutes I love him but he's an idiot!
..back to topic...

So as I start to tail this slow hunk of plastic I realized the irony in this as he pulls over to the side and lets me pass..

THE IRONY? A old not so pretty machine is still better than the new crap on the market!!! The Linux box, not always so pretty, is such a superior product to all the others on the market today.
