Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - a cocktail in one hand - a smoke in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming - WOO HOO!? What a ride!"
Books I have read and recommend
- Faithful - Stephen King (for you diehard Red Sox fans)
- I Am America (and so can you) - Stephen Colbert
- Black Mass - Dick Lehr & Gerard O'Neill
- Under And Alone - William Queen
- The Dharma Bums - Jack Kerouac
- America (The Book) - Jon Stewart
- Silent Bob Speaks - Kevin Smith
- Our Endangerd Values - Jimmy Carter
- A Salty Piece of Land - Jimmy Buffet
- A Pirate Looks at Fifty - Jimmy Buffet
- A Pirate Looks at Forty - Jimmy Buffett

I'm thinking your hatred is just because you're not getting enough exercise because you're not throwing non-working Windoze machines around the room any more. I recommend some weight training and giving in to simplicity itself (the Mac, that is).
True story on how easy Macs are, compared to Windoze: A friend got a used iBook from an uncle, and she wanted to make some room on the hard drive by dumping some of the programs she didn't need. She tried for hours looking for the "Uninstall" or "Remove" functions. Then she asked me. We opened the applications folder, dragged the ones she didn't want over to the trash can and emptied it. As a skilled and typical Windoze user, she couldn't believe it was that easy. I told her everything on the Mac is just as easy. And it is.
Being forced to beat your head against the wall daily becomes a habit, and when you move to a Mac and no longer have to do things the hard way, you might miss the head beating for a while. It's understandable. It will pass.
sorry I'm not drinking the Mac Koolaid. The stuff that I'm doing is not the average user stuff and there is way to much work mounting and un-mounting things. I'll stick with MS.
