I don't have to imagine. Bought my first Mac (an SE) in 1987, and my last in 2009. The '87 SE still works, the 2009 mini no longer does and was a buggy piece o' crap all its life. Unusual, yes. I was unlucky. I still use a G4 eMac running Tiger for some audio work, you can't beat macs for that -- but I can't stand to use one as an all-purpose computer. If you have to move large amounts of data around Finder is horrible. Of course it's fine for lite duty use like moving data to your usb stick. And Apple Mail will screw you over, refusing to wrap properly or suddenly composing in html without telling you and after it's already been told text only, etc etc. I've had plenty enough experience using a Mac to give an informed opinion and submit rational observations, thank you. :) Of course, there are *many* conflicting informed opinions, it depends on what you do and how you prefer to do it. For some people OS X is the bee's knees. As for the "low standards" crack, I apologize if you were offended, it wasn't meant to be serious. -- caveat utilitor ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤
