This is highly unlike one of my threads

Does anyone else think "Tog" is an idiot?

Seriously . . . That guy always seems to get on my nerves.

I haven't quite figured out why you post here to begin with. From what I can tell, based on the few of your posts that I have read, you are NOT in anyway a Mac user. So, why come to a Mac site and insight problems? I'm note sure where either of the Register's articles make any difference to you at all (or myself for that matter).

I think a response to this response would be far more interesting than any of the threads I've seen you start so far.

I will probably be getting a Mac next week, dont know which one though. Will wait and see what jobs shows us on Monday.

If you dont find any of my posts relevent to what you find interesting dont bother with them. Simple as that, we have had quite a few good conversation on here before.

Wow, what a change in attitude. Didn't you want a response? And as for good conversation, answering my question would be a great way to start one. You did want comments and clever come backs didn't you?

FrgMstr,

I'm glad you're going to get a mac. I think you'll be able to do *most* of your schoolwork on it. However, I'm thinking of getting VPC so that I can run windows apps too. For example, I was thinking the other night that if I was designing a entity relationship diagram (your homework assignment) I can't think of an OSX based tool I would use to help me.

In a nutshell, OSX can only do 90% of what I need. Windows can do it all but it's no fun. I don't want Windows, I use it all the time at work and it's just not fun to use.

As for this article, I don't really have any thoughts that I didn't publish in your first thread. He nitpicks at really minor stuff and seems unwilling to make tiny changes. (Also, what's his deal with the dock being unmovable? I put mine in the upper right corner and it's never in the way now.)

I think it would be fun to nitpick on the UI of his article. He only uses the middle third of the browser and that makes for a very narrow and long article that's incredibly hard to read. He's such a lazy SOB that he didn't bother to fix the formatting on emails that word wrapped improperly. What I get is stuff like this:

blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah .

He seperated his feedback into pro, netural, and anti but the seperaters are so visually insignifigant that I didn't realize that I have switched.

Sorry, the UI on his article is so lousy that I simply can't use it. I'm switching to slashdot until he gets his act cleaned up.

This hasnt been a change in attitude at all, ive always been like this.

Vanguard tell me about it, there are No CASE tools that i know of for the MAC. I.E SSADM, SEQSIM.
