I kind of appreciate OS X (written this way on purpose), for its NeXTSTEP heritage, and Apple pushing frameworks and alternative programming models that aren't stuck in being UNIX, C, C++ and nothing else. However I don't like at all their approach to hardware design, trying to be the Bang & Olufsen (or whatever) of computer world, in detriment of expansability. I rather keep my beige PC hardware kind of analogy.
