Does Mac need Mac OS X?

Macs are designed to function best with Mac OS X and the associated iLife software (iPhoto, iMovie etc.) but they can happily run Windows or Linux. Rather than change a Mac to the another operating systems you can run Windows using an emulator (Xp, Vista and 7 - use "Sandbox"). But for professionals that want more out of excellent hardware, Linux has tools for most - without the need for "Appstore". So, i run MacOS one one partition, have installed "REFIt" that enables triple boot: MacOS, Windows and Ubuntu Studio. I have installed some more eyecandy Ubuntu, music and video editing software, and this can access the MacOS HFS file system - and even fix it (install all the "hfs" tools). But things that I like, such as the Docking, is installed, but the top, shared menu line that changes for the window that is active, has been replaced by a "Windows-like" menu. The "ext4" filesystem is aparently more robust than hfs. There are some issues with the using the journalling in hfs from Linux, so be careful. Otherwise, things like email should be able to use the same files. I can "see" all my MacOS files from Linux, and all the Windows files - and when I need a MacOS tool, it is just to reboot and run MacOS - or Windows (this is usually just emulated in "Wine"/"Vm").
