Are Microsoft users abuse victims?
Oct. 14th, 2003 11:34 amOmaha asked me this, in relationship to her Mac, but I have to wonder about it in general. I mean, it really does start to sound like it sometimes: "Oh, it's not Windows' fault, it's mine. Really. If I worked harder at our relationship, I wouldn't have the crashes and the viruses and the spam. I just have to do what Bill tells me, and it will all be okay, right? I mean, that's really the issue. I stay because I know it'll get better. It will. I've put too much time and effort into it to give up now."
Just musing.

In Dock Preferences, uncheck "Animate Opening Applications." End of bouncing icons.
I'm forced to use Windows at work. Pity we can't trade...
