Desktop Linux is free.
Macs cost about 2.5x what a Windows system does on average.
Desktop Linux can run on almost any hardware.
OS X is supported on the hardware of one OEM.
Desktop Linux has a cult-like group pushing a "philosophy".
OS X has a lot of people who respect its ease of use.
Desktop Linux has been promoted by Dell, HP, Walmart, and more.
OS X is promoted by one company.
Desktop Linux can be migrated to on "Windows" hardware.
OS X can be migrated to only if you buy a new system [1].
Desktop Linux can be had in many, many forms (distros).
OS X comes in only one "distro".
You repeatedly try to equate the two - which is absurd. More than that,
given how you have been shown this repeatedly and have no response you are
lying.
