That's funny because there's over 30,000 apps (not including the thousands of aforementioned Linux/Unix apps) for the Macintosh platform. Name me a piece of software and I assure you there's a facsimile for it that is arguably better on the Mac platform. Now if you had mentioned games, I would have agreed with you. Windows is a lot better for games, but really, I don't spend over a thousand dollars just to play games. I use my computer to do serious stuff. If I want games, I'll play a Playstation or Game Cube. And for the record, I'm a dual Windows/Mac user. I was originally a C64/Amiga user in the eighties (and also dabbled with Texas Instruments, Apple II/Atari Falcon/Tandy/Mac computers) who then went on to use DOS and later Win 3.1 in the nineties. I used Windows exclusively from '91 on to 2001 (Win 3.1 - XP... although I secretly lusted for BeOS). I got my first Mac in 2001, and since then I use both Windows and Mac (Mac 9 and OS X). I also dabble in *Nix, but find that the Mac does everything I need since it's a fully functional Unix platform now (based on the respected *BSD branch). -- Mr. Tangent [the binary police] www.mrtangent.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

That's cool. I don't really care how many apps there are for Mac. I'm just saying that Windows is the development target. -- The best show killed by Cartoon Network/Adult Swim: Home Movies.

Key word in your statement above: "probably". I don't want those programs: they don't do what the ones I've mentioned do: those two are it.

So you own a Mac? Somehow I doubt you've used all of them. The point still stands that there is a Mac version of any Windows software, or facsimile thereof. As I showed, there is actually more eBay tools for OS X than there is for Windows, apparently.

I asked if you had used all sixteen Mac programs I pointed out. You said something to the effect that they didn't do what you wanted them to, and that you had used them. It's obvious you haven't, and you disregarded them without having used them. In effect, you lied. -- Mr. Tangent [the binary police] www.mrtangent.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

And the others aren't? Pshaw. Besides, off-topic conversations are sometimes fun. I didn't bring all this up. I'm not just going to stand by while people spread falsities about the Mac platform.
