I live in Latin America, where the cost of Windows is prohibitively high

prepare a budget for their desktop computers. When they do this I always
give them the choice
1. Buy Windows.

A lot of great answers here, but I don't think anyone has mentioned *deli
etiquette* - something tourists and new comers often get wrong, pissing off

This is actually a good question. The real answer is that Gravity doesn't
magically turn off when you get into orbit. You are still falling back
towards the earth. But once you reach a horizontal speed of about 17,000

known way to stay in space is to be going really fast and maintain an
orbit. So unless and until we...

Well it is not the *most* exclusive credit card. It's *very* exclusive in
that only those who are invited can hold the card, there are strict
qualification requirements (that are not officially disclosed, but rumours
all say that one must spend about $250,000 per year on their existing
American Express charge, not credit, card), and to get the card *after
being invited* will cost you a $7,500 initiat...

All desktop OSs can end up with a state which impairs performance.
So the answer is yes. OS X can sometimes become slow over time.
But in my experience it's less commonplace than in Windows installations.
There are a few of reasons for this.

That record for the fastest speed any human has ever traveled relative to
the Earth was set by Apollo 10, which reached 39,897 kph. That's

For comparison, the fastest unmanned craft ever launched to date is the
Helios 2 solar probe, launched in 1976, which reached approxim...

It would be great news, because Windows would then become open source code.
Linux is licensed under GPL, and that license has a "share, and share
alike" principle. In essence, the license says that if you distribute a

under the GPL. Linux shares its source code with you, and you must share
alike. Of course, all of this is ...

I am in my early 20s, earning between $110-180k/yr depending on my bonus.
Would it be inappropriate for me to drive a $50k Mercedes-Benz?

I feel qualified to give you an answer, since I bought a $50k Mercedes-Benz
SLK at age 26, and I earn in the same range. Let me first give you some
caveats:
- I have a stable office as a civil servant. Are you sure that you won't
