(Are you listening Google? Strike him off your fan boy list immediately!) (can you make his phone blow up while you're at it? Sorry, they're the iphones, I forgot)

They pushed me a Nougat OTA update that made my phone turn off at 15% power every time as punishment for my transgression.

Had to get an RMA replacement...

I'd be shocked to discover that ANY Apple user actually knows how to use a computer.


Still miss translating into binary?

Nope.  And I don't miss transferring files easily from one folder to another, or one device to another, because I don't have to screw around with virtual synching BS.

Yeah, the extra button press is stifling.

Command+C, Command+Option+V.

I waste so much energy with that Option button, I almost have to take an extra nap most days...

Its pretty easy to shock you apparently. I was a PC tech for many years. Made a decent living at it. Built all my own PC's and servers, the whole bit. Now I'm down to two non-mac boxes. My music machine and my shop computer. The computer in the shop is an ancient PC that runs a linux install. My music creation machine is a homebuilt win10 machine because I've used Sonar for so long that its like my native language when it comes to DAW's and everything else I've seen just gets in the way of creativity because the workflow is so different. 

Everything else in the house is a mac. Why? Economics. A mac that costs 2-3x as much as a pc tends to last 4-5x as long IME. Can't argue with the numbers.
