Value

Built on a Linux/Unix foundation, this Operating System was a game changer. It was the reason I left Window in the first place! The OSX Operating System came pretty much out of the box ready for software development work. XCode, PHP, Apache, MySQL - Considered MAMP (Mac, Apache, MySQL, PHP) was pretty much identical to the Linux LAMP stack I was already used to for many years. I found that it was very akin to the Linux world already, and actually found many packages written for Linux, worked on OSX as well with ease. This became my primary Operating System for well over a decade as workstations and MAMP servers.
