Has anyone else noticed some creepy similarities between Windows and Leopard in those extremely annoying pop-ups asking something along the lines of:
\n“This application has been downloaded from the Internet, are you sure you want to open it?”<\/p>\n
My answer to this is simple:
\nYes, and before this, that was why I was using a Mac in the first place! Because it would trust my judgment as a user, to know what on earth I was doing. Otherwise I probably wouldn’t have upgraded to Leopard in the first place, I would have gone back to my desktop Windows PC. And if this is a way to make it easier for Windows users to switch (because God knows they’re used to popups being part of their lives) then that’s just smoke and mirrors. Switching to Mac is a pain, it _will_ take months of adaptation, but it’s worth it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
