Torvalds said he was using a Mac back in 2005: <a href="http://news.cnet.com/Torvalds-switches-to-Apple/2100-1003_3-5606030.html" rel="nofollow">http://news.cnet.com/Torvalds-switches-to-Apple/2100-1003_3-...</a><p>He said the Mac was better than Vista, but called its FS "utter crap" in 2008: <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/news/technology/q-and-a-with-linus-torvalds/2008/02/05/1202090403120.html?page=fullpage#contentSwap1" rel="nofollow">http://www.smh.com.au/news/technology/q-and-a-with-linus-tor...</a><p>Note that in the 2008 interview, he also said that he thought that Linux was better than both.
