    Not Telling
  1. I am starting to notice a pattern in the behaviour of people who have cats/kittens in their avatars.
  2. ...Plus, people complain but sign up anyway because they don't have a choice. In SA, it costs about R30,000 (Rands) for a top-spec iMac. A new car costs about R100,000 - that's a third of the price of a new car...for a computer. I realize an Apple Mac Mini is cheaper, though I'd still have to purchase a monitor and its specs will probably not be sufficient. Boo-hoo
  3. @ChrisP, This is exactly the point I have been trying to make. Adobe has the numbers purely because of its leviathan-like status and because the general public thinks that Photoshop is the mother-beast of all design - not because of streamlined, professional-user-focused products. BTW, anyone see this thread on this very forum? It's like the FAMILY rated version of what's been going on in here. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  4. @ChrisP, You are a gentleman and a scholar ;) What you wrote is true, agreeable and fair. Given the melodramatic/sarcastic undertone of some of my posts here, I may have overdone it a little. I apologise. Achim63, I may have entertained some trolling here, though I'm sure both you and Mr. Dams are affable people in person. So, go back to our earlier exchanges and have a chuckle at the silly things we write online sometimes. @Dams, Amaze opinion, such individuals, plz laugh (haha) Well, back to grindin' the ol' 'Photosuprette', as it were.
  5. @Diller Serif develops new graphic design software that solves productivity issues Adobe has been oblivious to since its acquisition of Freehand, etc. Thousands of designers jump for joy at the announcement Thousands more look on with disgust as Serif decides to only develop for hipsters Those hipsters then snipe & sneer at the excluded users while uploading yet another shot of their minimalist, Apple-clad work spaces to Dribbble The bulk of the creative community (who forms part of the 91% of the prospective market) are left to watch Adobe make much ado about features like 'linked smart objects' & 'editable corner radius'...after 20/odd years of having the oppertunity? ...Hipster.
  6. Most people can't afford Apple products - well, most people outside of the US perhaps. That's what it boils down to. That's why most seemingly 'anti-Apple' users in this thread (and those outside of it) are truly upset. Because they're part of the 91.02% OS market share of Windows users whom have been ignored and excluded from the minority (less than 8%) that now enjoys a much welcomed alternative to what Adobe has been 'offering' until now. Windows users would have only liked to be part of what's happening in the OS X camp. So, while a few 'rivals' have it out (as usual) on threads like these and the never-ending Microsoft/Apple war ensues, most of us will just wait quietly and continue to apply resourcefulness where we can. Like this gentleman.
