Lloyd, I have currently about 70 different virtual machines composed
of various OSes including NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Solaris, multiple
versions of Linux and practically every version of Windows and Windows
Server ever made.  I've got some old SCO Open Server and BeOS disks lying
around somewhere too.  Maybe I'll VM them one day.  I am quite familiar
with the different computing environments that are now (and have been)
available.  I've used Macs at work and *hated* them, because I like Unix
and OS X just doesn't cut it as a Unix.  I've been using Linux for about
20 years now, and I haven't found a reason not to like it yet.

So if you come from a Windows/Mack environment and dabble with Linux
a little and then all you do is whine about how it's not dumbed down
enough for you, then yeah, you're a Mactard.

Oh, and Android, Windows Phone, and iOS are irrelevant to a discussion of
desktop OSes.
