| 2008/12/5-10 [Computer/SW/OS/OsX] UID:52174 Activity:kinda low | 12/5 I suggest CSUA buy a Mac and run MacOS on it. Maybe run Linux in
a VM, too. I think students will get more bang for their buck
trying to run services on MacOS than with "Just Another Linux Box".
\_ On what basis? We do have an AppleTV, which we've yet to hack
so it runs full OS X, but as a OS X user myself, I don't see the
OS being useful for useful services except if we get OS X server

you need to reboot if it's being used as a workstation?
\_ Occasionally you will run into the Windows NT syndrome of the system
needing a reboot for a system software patch - I'd say about once
every couple of months on a stable release, and once or twice a
month on a new one. Other than that, I have never seen a piece of
