This is an idiotic posting. Mac isn't out to make money....the company's name
is Apple Computer moron. Secondly there is no evidence Apple will charge for
system update downloads. They will charge for major version changes just like
everybody else. May I remind you that many FreeBSD users pay a subscription
fee...
Go ahead and hate whatever you like...just so long as I get to use what I want,
I really don't give a damn, but you might want to hesitate before showing the
world what an sophmoric idiot you are.
