6 Months with Mac
* Inspired by Lior’s post, here is my 6 month adventure with Mac OS X.
Since, I have dual-boot with Debian on my Macbook, and it works perfect; there are only 6 hours for Mac for me at work. Still, I can use ‘Free and Open Source’ softwares as much as possible
Firefox
Adium
Songbird
Colloquy
GIMP
OpenOffice.org
VLC
Vim
Frozen Bubble
X-Moto
Nope. Still, I am use Mail and iPhoto/Photo Booth. Shame on me, but will move to alternatives soon!
Note to potential Linux developers who want to buy macbook: Don’t buy it. You can get better performance and don’t have to fix things and you can spend that much time in other useful work!





As for Lior, probably you don’t need it but others might find it handy:
