I am hardly at odds with everybody in this group. So your analysis is flat-out wrong. And that comes as no surprise since you are plainly trolling. You still have not offered a single shred of evidence supporting the assertion that Apple software quality is in decline. You're failing spectacularly. > But no one here really cares about your life. You're the one that brought it up - not me. What does that tell you? > It's your daily behavior here that matters ... which you > clearly refuse to see. My behavior with regard to this particular topic has been to remain skeptical of the claim that Apple's software quality is in decline until someone, anyone, presents evidence showing that assertion to be true. So far, the best anyone has been able to say is that there are bugs, which is not evidence of a downward trend. My behavior is to search for the truth. So far, this assertion does not ring true. Your failure to present a valid case for this assertion doesn't equate to my failure to see. -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter.
