Is it really necessary to crank-out software for the macintrash? As 
long as people will do, there will allways be some poor dopes who 
will be sold (note that I didn't say buy) a beige toaster.

The OS is so convoluted and is a frightfull patchup job, well past 
the point of rightful work.

What the industry should do now is really pull the plug on macintrash 
software, so the half-abortive beast can die it's rightful death.

   Those who bitch against bugs in Windows obviously haven't worked with
    truly trashy system software, like the Macintosh Operating System.
