I guess if you're stuck on a platform where you can't even install the latest major version of the operating system because it's still so buggy, it might be nice to get an update for your six year old operating system. It's a little sad, though. I think I'd rather stick to a platform where new major versions of the operating system are actually worth installing. I'll be installing one in the next three or four weeks.... -- "More than two decades later, it is hard to imagine the Revolutionary War coming out any other way." --George W. Bush in Martinsburg, W.

That was done for a reason. There are some tightass's there who come close to some of the maccies here.

Can you suggest any real good wines that are not expensive? I prefer dry over sweet. Seriously... even a decent Pinot noir would be fine. I try to stay away from added nitrates which makes things a challenge. |

It's not a matter of expense, it's using what's best for the job. If you don't want it, don't use it. No one is holding a gun to your head. Now run along and play with your toys.....shoo....

Likewise, Linux is > worth every penny you pay for it. And Windows is worth every penny you pay for it too to some people. To me OS X is lacking so it is not worth every penny I pay for it. Linux is worth every penny to some and to others it's of no use to them. Please don't confuse opinions with facts. I've used all of those OSes at one time or another and they all have good points and bad points. John |
