Sun exec: ZFS to be default file system in Apples’ Mac OS X Leopard

And FUSE has been ported to the Mac by one of the top Google guys.

You're lost dude. Linux needs Fuse to run ZFS, while Mac's will have it directly integrated into the kernel. Fuse is a compatiblity layer that only Linux requires that kills performance, especially for a file system. If you want ZFS, run it natively with Sun Solaris, BSD, or soon to be available Apple OSX Leopard (10.5). I would recommend the Sun or Apple products, not the free/foreign knockoffs.

I don't need a lecture on FUSE. I just don't accept that Linux will never have a native ZFS filesystem. You think it won't or can't. We'll see but there are a lot of cooperative efforts in the open-source community now, drawing together to challenge Microsoft's business model.

I’m just stating the facts, as of now. ZFS doesn’t run natively on Linux, only Unix. I could care less about your “cooperative efforts in the open-source community”.
