One reason why macs are so efficient is because they have complete control over hardware and software and they have no need to make the Mac OS work with anything that is not from their stable. That way even Wincedows is a bit better , atleast they are not restricting anyone in choice of hardware, the fact that most hardware would be Wincedows compatible is another matter. Imagine if Opensource folks had control over the device and the software - it would be wow. And i thing in the phone segment that is what is happening openmoko is an example, as there are others. @ all One reason for the mail was to provoke debate ;-) i would like to repeat i really like Ubuntu and what they have done to Linux, basically make it accessible. And in a way life is easier because i know how it works. ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
