Why are Apple customers so loyal and enthusiastic? PING

If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.

You know, on the iPod, if after filling it with songs, you go to the computer in which the songs are backed-up, and delete them to free up some space, and then change the auto-update feature on iTunes, all the songs on the iPod disappear without warning.

Apple may be “easy-to-use” and this aspect appeals to a lot of users, coupled with the delibrate hiding of advanced settings, but there are some aspects of it that will drive one mad. Processes that don’t ask for user confirmations, for instance. For others that annoying box that Windows keeps popping up for every tiny system change, is appreciable.

My first Apple was Mac+, purchased new. I latter added an external Jasmine 20MB HD. I started doing repair for Whole Earth Access, then Computerware, back when the Quadra 700 was hot stuff.

Now I do technical support for a newspaper running almost all Macs.
