I entered the world of Apple hardware about 3 months ago now, with a second-hand iBook2. It was a 500mHz, 256mb, ATI Rage 128 model, with a standard CD-Rom drive. I spent the first few days trying to tweak Mac OS X to my liking, then a few further weeks installing and learning to use the applications I thought I'd need. Chimera, BBEdit, the developer tools, even the Fink X server so I could use Gaim.

You seem to be accusing him of not doing enough to make OS X perform. This is essentially a review of Yellow Dog Linux. I don't think the author uses his computer to prove to himself that OS X is powerful and that enough tweaking will make it run fast. Yellow Dog ran well for him without such tweaking. Taking it as a mortal insult whenever OS X proves to not meet someone's requirements is ridiculous. This applies to many Linux trolls, as well.
