Apple Tester Fired for Showing Wozniak iPad 3G

[Rocket-Boy]

XP and 2000 gave the the most *** of any OS. Mac OS X the least.

Thats probably because all 15 people running it were too ignorant to report the problems

Damn PC users are so insecure.

Its like comparing a Sharp Elsimate calculator - with fixed functions to a programmable HP calculator with dynamic functions.

I'm sorry that's just trolling.

 

[Rouxenator]

Its only trolling if you don't have a reply for it. That is why I am a firm believer in the fact that there is no such thing as trolling - its just in fairy tales.
What we have here is a dead end and someone has to admit they ran out of defense and basically lost the argument.

OK I'll reply.

Yes, you may find that as more and more application run services in the background your responsiveness get affected on NT5 systems. That is just the nature of its highly dynamic abilities. What you describe there with your OSX scenario is pretty much all the apps ever made for OSX running at the same time. Because they have such tight control over the OS and what people run in it they can build it so that the system remains responsive even when you use every feature it has to offer or comes bundled with.

I've found with OS X that there are way more high-quality apps compared to Windows. Really Windows has nothing on software like Pixelmator, Coda, Transmit, BBEdit not to mention Logic, Final Cut Studio, Aperture ...

I understand Apple's firing of the guy,(I dont agree with it) even inside Apple development teams ppl dont know what the other teams are doing, very very very compartmentalised structure they maintain. This helps them maintain focus on what they are building.

I don't think you know what you are talking about.

Do we know that this was the reason behind the firing or even that this is true...? If it is true it totally sucks balls but we don't know the whole story so i would not be so bold as to come to drastic conclutions. For one: for all we know this might not be the first time he has done this...
