OS X is free, period.
Elementary is "free", but the developers will shame you for not "donating" and call you a cheater for stealing their hacky distro.
>>51787426
that's beautiful tbqh
>>51787101
if all care about is looks.
>>51787462
OS X is only free if you bought previous updates.
Just because the OS is included in new machines does not mean it is "free".
>>51787426
Fuck off with elemementaryOS, you didn't knew about how they ranted on the people using it because they don't donate?
Fuck, people got to develop under the open-source logo and demand donations otherwise they get butthurt
That's what happens when broken feminists get to use linux and "contribute" on open-source projects.
Again, gtfo with your shitty OS, linux is not for GUI faggots like you ( and if you like GUI, use something mature like GNOME/KDE)

>>51787484
Are you really upset because some devs complained that they wanted people to donate more? How does that affect you? They made an OS that is lightweight, easy to install and appeals to tech illiterate Apple drones. You don't have to use it or even acknowledge it's existence. Why the fuck do you morons always have such an elitist attitude towards other people? If anything, babby OS's might get more people interest in Linux.

OSX forces me to switch to Apple hardware, a cost I am not inclined to bear just to use an OS that offers me no real advantage over Windows besides aesthetics.
Maybe if I were a musician or doing video editing on regular basis, I would invest in a Mac because that is their unique selling point.
For a workstation/gamer perspective, Mac is a useless toy.

Don't bother with eOS since it's slow as fuck, and has been bloated to oblivion and back.
>>51787631
you mean it doesn't have shit icons?
>>51787701
i wish a linux distro would go full material design.
>>51787426
First, it does not look the same. Not that aesthetics are everything, but seriously it doesn't. ElCap has lovely frosted glass effects everywhere which are borderline impossible to achieve with any Xorg compositor. eOS is basically just a Gnome 3 theme with slightly graduated grey borders. Also, although the handful of bundled applications are quite consistent, that doesn't spread to basically any third party application.
Secondly, depending on your job it cannot do the same things. Sure you'll be okay if you're just running Sublime and a terminal, but if you need any high-quality specialised tools you're very likely out of luck. And you'd better hope your client doesn't send you a PSD or DOCX to study because you're at best going to see broken bastardised versions of them.

Gnome 'werks', but only as single touch for most sensors. I have an Asus Vivobook X202E and it works just as a mouse emulator of sorts. I mean, it moves the cursor to the absolute position you touch, but only one position at a time, unlike Windows were the cursor is hidden and you can use all five fingers at once (you can see the trail for all five when you move them). Also, neither Midori, Firefox nor Chrome support touch and drag scrolling as in Windows per default.

People pay money for Mac to have a hassle free, highly polished computing experience that is offered by a single computer to minimize incompatibility and bugs and maximize efficiency and uniformity. That's why until now iPhones still only had 512mb of RAM.
Buying a Dell, an apple, custom building your own rig to look nice and perform are all entirely different sections of the population.
>Buy pre-made cheap variant of business oriented pc system
>Custom build high end workstation to fit my particular needs
>Purchase pre-made high end hardware quality controlled by a single company for consumer use.
It's that simple. Macs are for people who want to create media and to consume media. Pc and Linux are for people who mean business. And that's just the way it is. Price is negligible and completely reflects what the market is willing to pay.
>>51787101
You could probably make linux to look like that, the problem is most programs won't look like that.

I've had working touch on XFCE in Arch and Fedora. In fact, when I originally installed XFCE in Arch, my trackpad didn't work, and without having any of my keyboard shortcuts set up, I had to rely on touch to install my trackpad driver.

>>51789883
>he thinks eOS can have the moral high ground when it literally copied the entire look of OS X, albeit poorly
eOS is like OS X's retarded little brother, and "fit to content" and fullscreen make it so that the dock autohide window feature is pointless
>>51789907
fit to content + fullscreen >>> maximize
>>51789930

And here we have it folks, if OS X doesn't have something it must be pointless, until it finally gets it and the argument will change to Apple were the ones to finally "get it right".
Expect the same for window snapping.
>>51787101
Who cares about how it looks? The UI's usability is shit.
>OSX will never look this good

Try reading my post in context, fullscreen makes the dock autohide feature pointless. Guess what happens when you fullscreen a window?

Meh, I think I'd like it more if I'd never used OS X before it. Also, the trackpad goddamn sucks hairy indian female ass compared to OS X's based trackpad support
I wonder why /g/ hates os x, just because it's legally available only on dem macbooks n shit? You can install it on pretty much any modern desktop.
Also, /g/ still faps to them thinkpads? New ones are pretty much crap compared to new macbooks, and old ones are just… old?

I dunno, I never give anything an opinion until I try it. First I tried os x on imac and was pretty disappointed because of shitty mouse, hotkeys I didn't know and that retarded UI like "if you want to install an application, drag'n'drop it in this fancy painted window". After that I had to use old unibody macbook for about a week, that's when I liked it. Muh hotkeys, muh freebsd inside, no x for no crashes and whatnot. The trackpad is really nice, before this I never believed this type of pointing device would be comfortable for me. I'd never buy an apple desktop though, any modern PC can do the same.

>>51790510
C'mon mane, the idea is not only look but feel. I like OS X font rendering, compared to shitty blurry gnome, xfce and whatnot fonts.
Wow I can just tell that all the macfags here accidentally bought a mac or were given one, and since that's the only thing they use and don't know much about technology, they try to justify having the worst OS available out there. They try to sound like they know what they're talking about and their only argument is "looks" even though they've been proven that those traffic lights look ridiculous and the icons look as if it was a fisher price machine. I don't even like elementaryOS' look but I can recognize that it has a better design than OSX.
Really though, I feel there should be an outrage since Linux is free and OSX isn't and OSX doesn't even support all applications, yet they have the nerve to charge for updates lol. What makes people who don't know anything about technology change to OSX? Nothing but shilling and advertising.
It's just counter-intuitive to start using an OS which many apps don't support as a normie. Sure there are alternatives, but we can use that same excuse for Linux. It also has wine.
