You like paying for highly polished mediocrity

Maybe they could mimick the sharp edges on my wrists with some sort of blinking device.

if their attention to detail is so good, then why are the edges of their laptops sharp as hell?

I used to work in the building next to the 2checkout guys and I've attended a couple of Perl user groups at their offices. I also know a few people whom work there and they are all good guys.

In short I'm biased - but I will tell you that over at 2checkout their customer support is very nice, and they are all very helpful.

What does this have to do with HACKING though?

Crap this site is going down hill fast.

Therapy bud. Therapy.

Denial and hesitation seems to be Apple's modus operandi (they aren't the only ones).

As a software developer the bit about their algorithm for determining signal strength is absolutely ridiculous. IMO they probably released an update that actually faked your signal strength in order to cover up the crap antenna. That sounds more reasonable to me.

Remember back when Snow Leopard was deleting user data if you used the guest account? Refresher here: http://news.cnet.com/8301-31021_3-10373064-260.html.

Does anyone remember how long it took apple to solve that problem? It was despicable and completely disrespectful.

IF Microsoft had the same issue with Windows they would have patched it overnight; not waiting to fix things with the same time table that BP uses to stop an oil leak.

I'm a linux user (#!) and I also own a mac. I use windows professionally for my job. Things do not "just work" on a mac. If you think so then IMHO you're not using much of your OS.

In the end I would choose Linux, Windows , then OSX. I used to claim that Apple's hardware was superior, but never again.
