Amen! I've been doin' some PC window-shoppin' lately, just to prepare myself. They're all so damned ugly though. :/

Here's to hoping it doesn't completely suck. I just installed 10.3 and by god I have never seen such a monstrosity. :/ Am I alone in thinking that it feels incredibly unfinished? Did 10.2 feel this way at first?

Something simple, please, designed by people without toddlers. And some distinction between active and inactive windows would be grand. I could write volumes about what I don't like about Mac OS X's UI, but I'm a terrible writer with no audience. :)

They seriously haven't fixed FTP yet?! That is absolutely unacceptable. I'm shocked. And the fact that Safari uses the Finder as an FTP client... Wow. I hope everything's still shiny. :/ :::Quietly weeps for Apple's software people:::

Is it possible to add an alias to ~/.Trash? Perhaps a symbolic link? It sadly wouldn't work for ejecting/unmounting volumes, but for normal file deletion, why not? :) Now that I think of it, it probably wouldn't be too hard at all to put out an AppleScript to mimic the functionality of the...

Now I think #1, or some variation, is the best way, just because literally, years are not on the same level as months are not on the same level as days. It's a little bewildering to parse sometimes, but I think the peace of mind is worth it. For transforming, I've been using the XSLT...

Hasn't it always been like that? I haven't come across two copies of the same window with toolbars off in 10.2, and I don't remember it from before either. And isn't snap-to-grid under View:Show View Options? That's where it is in 10.2. Oh dear. Am I going to not like upgrading? :/

I'm making my band a shiny new website, and I've decided to store its innards as XML instead of the weird custom markup I was using before. Parts of the site's data are based on dates, and I've come up with two possible ways to format it. Way one... <event_list> <year n="2003"> <month...

*clap clap clap clap clap* Honestly, that's quite well done. And I am rather hard to please. And I'm not the type to take time to complement strangers for the feel-goodiness of it. I'd really like to see it printed on recycled brown paper with silver and white ink. Yum.

Demoability.

Boo yah!

I haven't seen one post about the new wireless keyboard and mouse. I like the way they look, but I'd be quite worried about battery life. Of course, the mouse still has only one button. :mad: So stubborn. I'm lookin' into getting a wireless Kensington. :D

Holy crap. That is niiice.

I just got my hands on a G3 All-in-one for my house because my G4/800 is goin' to my apartment. I'll have to to try loading X.2 on the G3. :) It currently run OS 9, and it feels so ... old.

The only files I've got shared are the ones that my bands put out. I don't get many people downloading them though. :/

I'll just throw my complaint out here. :) Comcast recently broke my email without telling me, and they blocked their users from any site hosted by ICDSoft. Boo!

I thought Apple already did that with iTunes. :)

Wow, people are still doin' the Mac vs. Windows thing? Are we stuck in 1995, people? GROW UP! :) And by the way. My dad can beat up ALL your dads. No, seriously.

I will not upgrade until FTP works in the Finder! :mad: Okay, so that's a lie, but come on! It's been broken since it appeared, and it seems like such a trivial thing to fix. Not to mention I've been waiting for it since System 7.

I saw the singing one. Had I seen Tommy Lee, I'd've known it wasn't an Apple commercial; I like to think that they have a lil' more class than that.
