>Man that cracked me up. I can relate, my inner child was once killed by
Wi98 and Adobe Premiere during a deadline project that I eventually had
to entirely redo on another system, finishing just hours before the
plane took off. Wasted an entire week and lost a lot of sleep.
For the Mac, OS7-OS9 sucked harder and harder as they struggled to keep
the legacy going, frantically working around decisions from the early
80s. OSX is significantly better. Not perfect, but a whole different league.
