It's funny to see how many Hacker News writers use Mac, the most closed hardware+OS, most anti-hackish.

A Mac is the only computer on which you can legally develop for all major operating systems, including mobile.

Apple puts artificial restrictions on what tools you can use to write iPhone apps, and Macs are that allowed tool, so OS X isn't closed?
That is literally the dumbest argument I've ever read on HN.
