Journal Geekboy(Wizard)'s Journal: Laptop just crashed 1

I just had my first system crash in OS X. I have had apps crash, and classic compat mode crash, but never an OS crash. Until today. I was trying to reboot, cause I noticed my system got a little unstable, and it dumped into the debuger. Ohh, well...MUCH better uptime than my Windows machines, but not quite as good as my OpenBSD or FreeBSD systems. I'm thinking of putting OpenBSD, or NetBSD on my laptop, but I want there to be Mac binary compatability. The libraries aren't a problem, I have a legal copy of OSX. Something like Wine. I doubt Apple would be to happy with something like that. I know there is a Linux version of that at http://www.maconlinux.org I wonder what apps are OS X only that I use. Esp, with no equivalent in BSD. Well....there's only one way to find out...;-)
