I heart my Mac :) , no really, couldn't be happier.
I have Ubuntu dual booting and all, but everything I want to do in
Ubuntu is imminently more doable in Mac OS X. However, to hear the
benchmarkers, Linux should outperform the Mac
(http://www.anandtech.com/mac/showdoc.aspx?i=2436)... not sure I'm
buying that, but, could be.
As for impact on Linux, hmm... maybe put some pressure on Linux
developers to improve their UI's. Oh, I know - ask Linus, he's a
Powerbook user.
