When you say for a desktop do you mean GUI interface or actually on a desktop, because I thought MACs used a unix or linux platform. Yeah we created a cluster at our school using Linux as our OS. It's like a supercomputer in our lab. All the comp sci geeks, oh I mean students *-* go there to do their programs. I hated typing all the line commands...but it helps to know all that stuff. I hated typing in DOS at one point, so it's not just biased dislike against linux. Maybe I just like seeing color or something...I don't know..I mean I have to type hundreds of lines when I program, so I don't know what the big deal is. The one the school used when I was there was the latest version of Red Hat. It was kind of funky...


EDIT: OH yeah I don't like linux cause of the vi editor lol...it blew..


I mean in Desktop use.. I use KDE.. its a really nice GUI.. and Mac OS X uses a Posix standard.. which is what all Unix/linux's are based off thats why you can take a linux program with a few ports get it to run on Mac OS X.. but what i man for desktop is for useful well features apps.. I mean its getting there but slowly.. and yea Clustering is really nice which you can do in Linux easily..

you just hate CLI type interfaces.. hehe just load new linux which like Redhat all them are graphical installs.. and start up into a GUI .. hardly any CLI .. unless ssh'ing or actually going into a xterm
