Sometimes, when we have young aspiring engineers as interns here looking for a job, normally with their own laptops, I get them to turn them upside down and look at the base to see the side the engineers and designers forgot. Then I show them a Mac laptop. Inside, outside, upsidedown or not, the designers didn't forget their job… which was to design and engineer.
>From the English Guardian newspaper. reprinted in the SMH. "I know Windows is awful. Everyone knows Windows is awful. Windows is like the faint smell of piss in a subway: it's there, and there's nothing you can do about it. It's grim, it's slow, everything's badly designed and nothing works properly: using Windows is like living in a communist bloc nation circa 1981. And I wouldn't change it for the world, because I'm an abject bloody idiot and I hate myself, and this is what I deserve: to be sentenced to Windows for life." "That's why Windows works for me. But I'd never recommend it to anybody else, ever. This puts me in line with roughly everybody else in the world. No one has ever earnestly turned to a fellow human being and said, "Hey, have you considered Windows?"" http://www.smh.com.au/digital-life/computers/better-the-broken-windows-than-life-with-the-mac-monks-20091103-huew.html I'm glad I did not start this topic. _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list [email protected] To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
