I use whatapp for group chats, also sending funny pics and videos for free. Handy for that!

Whats App must be fuming as iOS5 brings a built in messenger that EVERYONE will have effectively making Whats App redundant . . ?

Except people with non-iOS phones, segmenting the messaging market, again. Which the millions of apps available have already done.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Some things I take for granted in windows (like renaming a folder I've created) I can't find the option for  :laugh:


Just hit enter on your folder or file and type in a new name. It wont open said file / folder like windows does.  :tongue:

yeh you need to press CMD and O to open stuff.

I transitioned from MS-DOS to Windows to OS X and the transition can be quite jarring from Windows to OS X  and it took me around 2 weeks to fully understand what the heck was going on. Lots of google searches like "how do you uninstall programs in OSX" and "Why can I only resize OS X windows by dragging the bottom right hand corner"

Once you get used to the interface it's usable.

Wow.  That is possibly the most damning thign I've seen written about OSX.  :grin:

I'm sure the Apple User Experience team must be delighted with this sort of assessment.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Well I can't gush over OS X as it has some strange design choices and complete lack of transparency. Case in point. Screen Capture.

What's wrong with a button on the keyboard that say's Print Screen?

Oh dear.......been playing a bit more with the iPhone and urm.....i like it  :lipsrsealed:

Not totally convinced by the OS but in terms of how its screwed together its way above most phones ive used.
