I found myself using my dad’s Mac Pro workstation in the basement for several projects for school. It’s a nice machine to work on, however, when one tries to find the perfect ftp program without coughing up $400 it becomes too much for me.

I fumble around for a bit trying to get some files onto my server, then I realize. OS X is UNIX-BASED! That means that a lot of what I use in Linux carries over. I literally hit myself in the head because I hadn’t thought of it earlier.

What do I do next? I drop down into terminal and do all my file transfers through there. It was an actual comforting computing experience.

Not only that, but I have the peace of mind of stable hardware, drivers, and software. What else could I want except for a lower price tag??

Let’s just say, when I go to college, I will be getting a Mac that dual boots Linux. From the Linux session, I will be able to run Windows for any proprietary software I would need for class.

Problem solved!

Good night,
