[ubuntu-in] Ubuntu on Apple Mac's

[Ramnarayan.K]

Am being a pest here, but my own favorite laptop series / company has
been the IBM /Lenovo Thinkpads - T and X series (dream about the later
only)

So Hardeep, what are the "hard" facts that you dislike in a mac - not
the moral / philosophy.

The reason for my insistence on knowing how good or bad Macs are
simple , i have to help friends decide between macs and the other
laptops. And the think is of late half a dozen people have waltzed
through our lives all flaunting macs, though none with linux , and
obviously all the macs lokked (and performed) flashier than my
unstable / on the bleeding edge misbehaving ubuntu. hence the need for
hard facts

however, all your comments and discussion, so far, is much appreciated.
