You know, i have always liked & defended Mac computers, cos they're reliable & don't crash much, but over the last few years I've been liking them less & less.
Cos:
1. their computers, laptops, etc are ALWAYS more expensive (Why? Anyone got a good reason? I'm serious, i'd like to know, cos then i can stop being cross),
and,
2. (far more important) their operating system is DELIBERATELY incompatible with everything.
Which I like about as much as i like Planned Obsolescence.
(It makes me personally selfishly grumpy cos when I try to download free music trax they won't download properly... but it's also an Ideological Thing.
Make stuff as open as possible!
Share, don't hoard, ya bastids!)
