You betcha! :-)

The Maccies don´t even acknowledge Linux does exist.
"OSX is built on top of the secure UNIX foundation" they scream. But
then they also deny the existance of something called OpenSolaris.

In fact, when they take GPL open source software as in FFMPEG and
compile it for OSX with a native OSX GUI, they say they´re using "the
FFMPEG Unix tool".

See:
http://www.ffmpegx.com/

"The power of 20 Unix tools in a single application for OSX"

FFMPEG a "unix tool" ?.... Mentioning the concept of "Free Software"
(as in Freedom, GPL) is forbidden in Mac-land.

Sheesh... it sucks to be a Church of Cupertino zealot...
