How about the author's argument against macports: "You will learn a lot more than you ever wanted to about source-code and build systems." Um, we are talking about why a developer might want to use a mac, right?

What I find more ironic about that is I use ports a lot, but I've never thought about the source-code and build systems aspect of it.

That's exactly the same idea that I was getting from this guy. He's annoyed by people who make broad claims, yet he seems to have done this himself.

As a Python/ Django developer who's tinkering around with Objective-C I couldn't be more happy with OS X. But maybe that's because I used FreeBSD exclusively before OS X? Which he seems to think isn't comfortable.

So, I assume your computer has a steering wheel, just like your fridge.

Right?
