Well, maybe I can take your point. :^)
But on the other hand, my answer to your question would be: YES. Somebody "out there" can help me.
The question is: Will I meet up with this person before I go insane??? :^)
A little historical background: I have been a Mac person since 1985. I am completely "cross-platform," and much of my professional work over the years has been done on a Windows operating system (holding my nose all the while).
Notwithstanding, for typography, for graphics capability, no operating system even comes close to the capabilities of a Macintosh "box," when push comes to shove....
Assuming it is working properly. And until recently, it has always done so.
A little history here: Microsoft completely ripped off the GUI ideas of the earliest Macintosh machines, and actually won in court.
Apple got those ideas — and actually paid down good money to acquire them — from Xerox, who did all the early spadework into the "graphical user interface," but did not at the time think the idea worth developing, for commercial reasons.
Steve Jobs saw otherwise. Bill Gates, who got his start at Apple, was an early contributor to this vision. But he hardly was the originator of it.
And as I said, when the dispute reached the courts, Bill Gates somehow managed to prevail.
post a vanity and I bet you will find a few people here
