And, crucially, OSX is the only real option for running both unixy programs and high-grade commercial software such as the Adobe Suite on the same machine without dual-booting
- WorldMaker 10y agoDefine "real". Cygwin has been an option on Windows for a long time. It has its complications and issues, but isn't exactly "fake". Besides that, Windows 10's Bash on Ubuntu on Windows is a very interesting step in this direction. It's going to increasingly be a "real" option. ETA: Also, Virtual Machines and Remote Login are blurry edges of "real" that aren't dual-booting.
- cptskippy 10y agoHow about not half baked, incomplete, or restricted? Lets be honest, Cygwin is a joke if you're doing *nix development. Windows 10's Bash on Ubuntu is months old, we're talking historically on the order of 5-10 years. VMs and remote systems are fraught with compromises.
