As stated above, first time through allows you to set the preference you would like to follow... if you would, at some point, wish to change that, you can do that via preferences (or via right-click).

The writer’s point seemed to be to make it appear that Apple in some way forces you to do something and then states (more or less) that Linux is better. So, if I missed some other point, I apologize. But, the tone seemed to imply something that was not correct. And adjustable *just as in Linux*

:D

^^^^^^^^^^^The writer’s point seemed to be to make it appear that Apple in some way forces you to do something and then states (more or less) that Linux is better.^^^^^^^^^

That essentially was the point, you read it correctly.

As I stated, all the machines that I’ve used acted the same way, so I had the same assumption that the writer had, that it was a choice that was made initially by apple inc.

Ok. Oh well. So what. I’ve been wrong before, will be again in the future. I’ve never bought a mac, so that experience is not in my memory. Take that for what it’s worth.

But I think it does bring something to light, is that macs(and windows also applies here) are just too bossy. Ever since os 10 was released, I’ve always viewed it as a huge step in the right direction. Most of my gripes with macs now have to do with hardware(and the obvious restrictions there) and pricing.
