Hawk Wings reports:
'A month ago Tim Bray and Mark Pilgrim torched off a mini-firestorm in the blogosphere by announcing that they were switching away from Mac OS X to Ubuntu.

'Hawk Wings covered it because of Mail.app's central role in Mark Pilgrim's decision to switch away.

'Now Tim Bray is almost having second thoughts. He has posted a
list of things that Mac OS X does better and things that Ubuntu does better. Mac OS X wins out in some important areas.'


So much for geek clout. Looks like function wins over form (here, the form is being k3w1) once this guy's finished trading wives. Not to say OS X won, but that after living with the mistress for a while, the guy finds out both choices are, underneath his fantasies and projections, real-life OSes.
