[Closed] PC stupid basic question..

Mac is just a GUI for Linux

Mac is (kind of) Free BSD not Linux.

Mac OS is BSD unix not Linux based. It's a common misconception that it's Linux.

Wild made up guess is almost right. Think I need to invent some perpetual motion before the fizzy stuff wears off

I want to like linux, it's doing well on phones, still not there for [i]home*[/i] desktops (the few versions I've tried).

*normal homes not geek homes

I've narrowed it down to that or a worn rubber washer.

Try switching it off and on again. If it still leaks then my money's on the rubber washer, or if it's the same as my old one that leaked a little rubber concertina pipe that goes to the top of the drum and had just popped out.

Come on now, enough of this perpetual motion lark...
