Well its kinda hard to place a price on OS X when it comes bundled with the
machine itself. I don't even know how much it sells for. I think Windows works
too, quite well for people who enjoy it however I refuse to personally use it. 
Fact OS X is proprietary software, so is Microsoft Windows. There is a similarity.
I keep looking around and watching Free Software people (thats a pretty vague term,
but I guess people who some what advocate the use of FS) using OS X as if its "okay",
like "oh, I don't use Windows, I use Mac." Just keep in mind that Apple is generally 
proprietary software (same people who put out quicktime and iTunes....ewwww). 

I think I kinda butchered the editing in vim, when I started editing this as
to avoid a flame war (my point is merely that Mac OS X is in the same
proprietary software boat as windows, as is Opera, Flash, and Cisco),
my "set TextWidth=80" got in the way, but it looks ok I hope.
