  What hardware platforms does a Macintosh run under?

  What hardware platforms does NT run under?

  Which one is proprietary?

  I'm so tired of hearing uninformed persons crying "windows is
proprietary".  I mean, get real.
AMD?  Cirrus?  Intel ? And let's not even talk about hardware add-ons such
as sound cards,
video adapters, modems, etc...

  How can anyone seriously put forth that windows is proprietary... ???
Which O.S. do you think
supports more hardware platforms AND options ??  UNIX?  Depends on the
flavor, I think.
