What!?!?
No. Definitely not correct. They might be doing that now, but if so that change is precisely the complaint at some level. I used to buy Apple computers precisely because I did understand computers, but now I buy them in spite of that.
- Rury 6y ago>I used to buy Apple computers precisely because I did understand computers Maybe because computers were always complicated and messy to use - so someone who understands computers would appreciate a 'friendly to use' computer? My Dad is the same. Steve Jobs anyhow, always wanted to make the computer as user friendly as possible, so that anyone should be able to use them - not just some super skilled tech person (which is what I meant in my above post). Hell, Steve even hated the concept of a multi-button mouse... deeming it as something unnecessary if the UI was simple enough.
