Inferior?How so? I use both on a regular basis and Ubuntu is, on average, as good as OSX once you get it running. Like I said, it's on average, so Ubuntu's worse at some things(installation, some configuration is harder) and OSX is worse at some things(program installation, upgrading)

I can see his point. Mac OS X would surely run faster, given that it's designed specifically for that hardware whereas Linux is designed mainly for x86. And Apple machines are usually more expensive than comparable-spec PCs so it's only really worth paying the extra if you want to run an Apple OS.
