Also, I know this isn't the time or the place, but comparing Windows and Mac is one of my pet peeves. Windows is an operating system and Mac is a computer. Mac OS X is the OS that comes with Mac, but even comparing Windows with that isn't exactly fair, because (supposedly) it is not possible to run that on an ordinary computer, which is possible with Windows.

ROFL or LMAO?
It would be a more correct assertion to say ˝Mac˝ is a brand name of personal computers. In the other relation referring to naming of the operating system, ˝Mac˝ is often used as abbreviation for ˝Mac OS X˝, simply because a regular word is nicer to use in place of ˝OS X˝. Formerly, it used to be called ˝Mac OS˝ before version 10 (X), and I doubt anyone would refer to it as ˝OS˝ when that could cause a lot of confusion. It's also a similar case with ˝Linux˝, normally the name of a kernel, it's often used as abbreviation for ˝GNU/Linux˝, which is the actual term that covers the operating system, while it furthermore comes down to the distribution name (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, etc.) in the end. I've seen these kind of abbreviations numerous of times, and do not consider them erroneous. In another note, it's absolutely possible to run Mac OS X on hardware that isn't provided by Apple because of the Hackintosh/OSx86 project, on the condition that compatible drivers exist for a native installation, while virtualisation is another solution possible on either VMware or VirtualBox. Even though I despise Apple, I used to have a well working Mac OS X installation on my MSI laptop, but it got removed since I didn't use it for 9 months almost. I only plan to install it again as virtual machine when I'm finally ready to carry out some development on it, mostly to port my applications and games for both desktop and mobile.PluMGMK wrote:Also, I know this isn't the time or the place, but comparing Windows and Mac is one of my pet peeves.

Radioactivity or Chemical Bonding? (referring to chapters in my Chemistry book

Personally, I don't like using just "Linux", because so much important stuff other than the kernel came from the GNU project. Normally, I avoid saying either by just using the distribution name, but I guess that's technically not fair either.PowerPatrick wrote:It's also a similar case with ˝Linux˝, normally the name of a kernel, it's often used as abbreviation for ˝GNU/Linux˝, which is the actual term that covers the operating system, while it furthermore comes down to the distribution name (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, etc.) in the end.

I'm aware of that, which is why I added "supposedly" in parentheses.PowerPatrick wrote:In another note, it's absolutely possible to run Mac OS X on hardware that isn't provided by Apple because of the Hackintosh/OSx86 project, on the condition that compatible drivers exist for a native installation, while virtualisation is another solution possible on either VMware or VirtualBox.
