What you say makes a great deal of sense and is very close to my own views. I use OS X and XP on a daily basis (ok, some days I do not use XP, but most) and tinker with Linux from time to time. You mention ease of use with OS X: can you expand on what you mean by that with specific examples? I have been having a similar conversation with several people in COLA and all they can do, for the most part, is look at one hand picked example of a task best handled by a CLI and then claim that since that one task is no easier in OS X then the claim of OS Xs ease of use must be bogus. Their argument is, of course, silly at best.
