I think GSZX1337 is expressing discontent that the iPad doesn't have OSX?

One is an open operating system with no limits on how you use it, one is a closed operating system where all apps have to be downloaded and sync'd through Apple's iTunes platform. Aside from the glossy looks the 2 platforms couldn't be further apart.

That's why I asked.
What does Mac OSX do that the iPhone OS doesn't do? I've only used Mac OSX at schools, so I don't know much about it. I thought that the iPhone OS was just a stripped down Mac OSX.

After reading Niode's post, I'm disappointed that the iPad doesn't have OSX.

OOOH!! Haha, I thought you were being sarcastic saying that the fact that it didn't run OS X wasn't a significant reason to not want to buy one.

Gotcha, I'm sorry for misunderstanding you.
