But, as far as all those Windows users running iTunes on Windows, I'm sure that sounds like blasphemy to you. So, my suggestion ix to tell all those errant "PC" users to dump their junk boxes and get with the program and play their music on the "real thing".
Five days a week, 8 or 9 hours a day, I work on a Mac. If I had my way, I drop the thing off a second story balcony and replace it with a PC.
First, there is no justification for two operating systems in the same building. With most the company operating on PC and only a small percentage usin Macs, it only makes good economic sense to do away with the Macs.
Even if the Mac was better (which it is not), it would not be better-enough to justify the added expense and aggrevation caused daily by its presence in an otherwise PC environment.
And, if anyone tells me again that the Mac is a more stable environment, I will surely puke. There is nothing stable about a Mac when it can not handle a font delievered from the outside world without crashing one of more open programs (and worse).
Mac is a fetish. Support of a Mac over a PC is no more justified than is someone's preference of a Ford over a Chevy. Both the Mac and PC will take the user where they need to go. With a PC, however, you no longer need two sets of mechanics around to fix the things when they break down.
Rah Rah, Go Mac? Yuk!
Oh, and the Itunes thing. Do I really need a desk top computer to play music? Seriously.
You said -- "Mac is a fetish. Support of a Mac over a PC is no more justified than is someone's preference of a Ford over a Chevy."
Ahhh..., I see -- it's no more than a Ford over a Chevy. Okay...
Now, if you want a Chevy, does that mean that Chevy is better for the "rest of us" -- since you say so?
Or perhaps, what you're saying -- instead -- is that we should simply shut down the Ford plant -- so we all have to drive Chevys -- like is "your fetish". Is that it?
Makes sense to me. Your fetish is the best... yeah....

And you are still working on OS9... as you have admitted many times before in your rants... so your comments are irrelevant.
