The Mac platform was always considered a premium platform, hence much of its software is shareware or commercial. In the recent days more freeware applications have emerged, but the majority are small utilities and not full scale applications. Enter the world of GNU which can not only provide "free" applications as in beer, but most importantly, "Free", as in Freedom.

No, it is not pathetic. I simply wrote my article with a DIFFERENT standpoint. The problem here is that most of our readers ARE Linux weenies,
What the hack is a Linux weenie according to your temporary lapse in wisdom?It would be not done likewise from a objective point of view to entitle MacOSX as a gay/lesbo OS,only good for editing pornpics , doing some infantile development and initiation of brainfarts.
I get a bit ambiguous feeling about the fact someone wants to ride premium has the cash but wants to have applications for free without contributing something back other than FUD and misinformation.I guess something must be apealing about OSS after all from the point of view of MacOSX jane/joe average.
