I'm sorry, Apple, but that's really lame. I'm using a Mac because I want it to just work... if I have to go copying and pasting gibberish from blogs / bulletin boards into my config files in order to get things done on my computer, then I might as well be using Linux.
I kind of gave up on Macs after having WAY too many hardware problems (yes, the OS is possibly the most user friendsly if less-than-open thing ever, but still.)
I've been dual-booting Ubuntu myself though (on my AMD-based notebook, with, I admit it, Windows) and I love it except that I can't get my wireless card to work in spite of months of tinkering with NDISwrapper and various drivers.
When it actually works, the copying and pasting gibberish is actually kind of fun though!
