I'm not stating that an Apple laptop is so cool that you would want to install FreeBSD on it, however, if one has an Apple laptop, FreeBSD is so cool that you would want to install it on one. I develop applications for a company on an Apple laptop for Mac OS X, and finally I can use FreeBSD on it when not needing to be in Mac OS X, rather than having to switch over to another laptop. Did you get the impression that I was calling x86 users ignorant? I'm an x86 user as well, and by the way, an Intel Mac is x86, so I'm not sure what your point was exactly. Anyway, cheers.

So tell us, ignorant x86 users, what is so cool about Apple notebooks that makes you want to install FreeBSD on one? [SorAlx] ridin' VN1500-B2
