Re: Why Does Apple Hate Me?

I did skim it, but only quickly. You appear to have posted to the wrong
group. I think you wanted to post to alt.random-whines-and-obscenities.

No I'm not an Apple fan-boy. If there is one thing I have learned in
nearly 40 years of computer experience, it is that things change and I
should re-evaluate my preferences every few years. If I hadn't done such
re-evaluations, I wouldn't have made the transition from paper tape to
punched cards (or anything later). At the moment, I tend to favor Macs,
but that's a relatively recent preference (new to OS X); my preference
might change again in the future as it has many times in the past. I
also have currently used boxes at home running Windows (XP and 98) and
Linux.

If you actually want some helpful suggestions, then you might get them
if you post coherently asking. I didn't find it worth reading through
your whines carefully enough to see if there was something I might help
with. Odds are it isn't in aan area I'd be the best one to answer
anyway, but I suspect I'm not the only one you turned off.

If you just like whining, then... well, I guess that's up to you. My
killfile can deal with it if needed.
