Microsoft - Like entering your home and opening the stainless steel kitchen door, with a Popup: 'Do you really want to open this door'? Then looking for the dishwasher and finding it stored in the living room where you have to download a water supply from the app store, then you have to buy microsoft compliant soap, remove the carpet only to be told that it is glued to the floor.. Don't forget to make multiple copies of your front door key and post them to all who demand access to all the doors inside your home including the windows and outside shed.

Apple - Like entering your home and opening the oak framed Kitchen door and finding the dishwasher right in front you ready to be switched on, soap supplied, and water that comes through a water softener.  Ah the front door key is yours and it only needs to open the front door.

One Dimensional, surely that's a circle? Boxes have 4 sides so are surely Four Dimensional

Ok, this conversation is driving me nuts.....Mmm...a box with 4 sides is a cuboid.  Drawn it is two dimensional.  Now I know I am sounding very intelligent here to cover my tracks , the truth is I'm stuck in a muddy place and have to pretend to know what I am talking about.

One dimensional is making a point or to be even more pedantic a dot or a period

Yep, maths is not my strongest point, after googling desperately to find some crude manner in which I could refute your comment and appear to be superior in intellect I give in.

hmmmm .... a cuboid is a 3D shape. Cuboids have six faces, which form a convex polyhedron. Broadly, the faces of the cuboid can be any quadrilateral. More narrowly, cuboids are made from 6 rectangles, which are placed at right angles.  (Google was my friend here :))

X  has always meant Close Window/box without applying changes in every piece of software from China to the Azores.:)

Except that no app except maybe a few of the most poorly designed ones allow you to close a window containing any changes without first confirming that you really want to discard those changes.

If instead the changes have already been applied, no app I can think of requires confirmation, nor should it. Can you think of any that do? :35_thinking:

Regarding window vs. box, one does not have to be a pedant to notice the blatantly obvious differences that every OS (much less apps) enforces on their appearance & functionality ... although maybe a cup of coffee might help with that. :P

I think perhaps your use of the present tense (the present participle to be precise about it) is a trifle over optimistic. xD

The present tense form of "driving" implies that you have not yet reached your destination, which may be overly optimistic compared to a past tense form that implies you have already arrived.

I myself reached that destination many years ago & rather like it.

Yeah well, my brakes are in perfect working order, plus I have a retarder, so I guess I won't be seeing any nuts for a long long time to come.  I am sorry though for your predicament.:D

Brakes in perfect working order are not of much help if the operator is not likewise in perfect working order.... xD
