[luau] Mac OSX in Linux Journal

I just received the latest issue of Linux Journal, wherein OSX is
objectively discussed and compared. The bottom line: they liked it
quite a bit, said that version 10.1.2 has come a very long way from
10.0, but still has a long way to go. The only "deficiency" I can see
is that the default filesystem seems to be HFS+, which I have on an old
Powerbook 1400 running MacOS 8.1. HPFS+ doesn't seem nearly robust
enough for the job, and is case-insensitive, which would seem to break
many things.
I would hope that ext3, reiserfs or a similarly capable journalling fs
would be made available for it soon.
