Grubby.
But at a very basic level, the fact that I have two operating systems available on one laptop is just incredible. You simply hold down the Option key at startup, pick which operating system you want to use, and you're up and running in seconds. No emulation or sub-par performance. Both run natively and at full speed.
Todd Dominey has always had a faint whiff of Macfundie about him, but this is too much. OMG. It is incroy-AH-bluh that the supernova design minds at Apple have produced a -- like, you're not gonna bleeve this -- boot loader. Good Lord, how could anyone not have thought of this before. It reminds me of all those "BBEdit is so teh editbomb!" commenters who think it so rad because it uses like regular expressions and shit. I love Macs, but this fanboy gush stuff is teh worst.

(I'm envying y'all mac users lately, I'm stuck on windows all day for work compatibility reasons)
