True, you are able to use Transdroid with a torrent client with any PC OS. However, the port configuration and “sharing” on Mac OS X I find is so much easier to do and restrict. If I wanted to I can add iptables/rc.d/inetd (files that can restrict ports) to my Mac very easily.

But great reply, the first you are able to do on any PC OS. However the other is interesting.

I use it with my G-Nex. The beauty of Mac OS X is that it’s kernel-unix based; just like my Android phone. With OS X I can easily install unix programs. The security on my OS X computer is amazing too; easy to configure and access. iOS on the other hand is a completely different story. iOS is locked down! It’s not unix based and proprietary to Apple. iOS and OS X are similar is look, but different in customization, power, and functionality. Here’s some examples how my Mac and Android work greatly together:

Transdroid: I have Transdroid on my G-Nex with Transmission running on a Mac home server that is locked down with the exception of that port I need. I can easily send torrents to download from my phone to my Mac at home from anywhere. Managing it all from my G-Nex.

Flashing, Rooting, Unlocking: The beauty of my Mac is I don’t have to download drivers to flash, root, or unlock my phone. All the drivers are already on my Mac.

Those are just some of the quick examples I can think of off the top of my head.

My intention wasn’t so much “Everyone in the south calls it all coke” but rather “Everyone I’ve ever known who calls it all coke is from the south.”

Seems Windows or even Linux would fit that mindset better. You hate closed walls on your phone, but love it on your PC?

I grew up in NC and it’s all coke there. My wife is from upstate NY and moved to NC as a teenager, started working as a waitress. Someone would order a coke, and she’d write it down. They’d say, “Wait, what kinds of coke do you have?” “wait, what?”

I know Kellen has an iMac and while I love Android, I’m also big on Mac computers. Looking to buy the new retina MacBook Pro for school actually. I guess I’m biased since I use it for music production though.
