[G4] Don't bad mouth just sign out

[Eric Wood]

Yeah, maybe, but so what? I for one am disappointed at Apple's sole  
use of Intel and not AMD, it makes an already dominant chip maker  
even worse. I've run into issues, such as with Rosetta, running OS X  
on an AMD, so if I want to boycott Intel, that leaves me with PowerPC  
or other OSes on other chips.

And since Fedora 10 has managed to stop starting XWindows because of  
proprietary vs open driver issues, I don't think Linux-based OSes are  
about to replace anything. So frustrating. My best computer is a  
speed-crippled G4 iBook :/
