A recent article by Tony Smith from The Register titled "Mac OS X 10.3 Panther will not be a 64-bit OS" caused a good deal of confusion with many people, including me. It is also caused a heated argument here on OSNews. The basic point of the article is that Mac OS 10.2.7 and 10.3 are not "true" 64-bit OSes, but the article does not clearly explain what a "true" 64-bit OS is. This had led to a lot of claims that the article is false or misinformed, rather than just unclear, which is certainly is.

"Apple does not offer a Terminal Services solution, instead letting you log on remotely via ssh or telnet to a command line or X-Windows environment, where you are pretty much limited to using ported open source programs."
This is only partly true. Apple does have a product called Apple Remote Desktop which I've used very successfully to manage Macs without physical access. I think Apple is very aggressively developing remote user and multiple user environments. We'll see a lot more of this technology as we move forward.
