No. "Macintohs HD" is the default. Or it was. No idea what it is now.

> which would , by default contain a space ?

That's not the issue. you have to have two things

1) A Hard drive you boot from with a space in the name

*AND*

2) another drive with the same name as the boot drive up to, but not
including, the space.

Still "Macintosh HD", at least up to and including my MacBook Pro
(Retina, Late 2013), which came with Mavericks preinstalled.

Even though there is no "hard drive" in the computer.

As the name of the startup drive is rarely used in command line
contexts, I don't care about having a space in its name, so I changed it
to reflect the computer's name with " SSD" as a suffix instead of " HD".

That's surely not the point. Personally, I have never nor have ever 
considered naming my drives with spaces in them, but then my first OS 
was os-9 (look it up). That said, spaces in filenmames has been 
something Apple has been proud of for years, so why not drive names too, 
your average user might think. It's not up to Apple or anyone else what 
I call my drives. I have one called "Mohammed Sucks".

Again, spaces in drive names was not the issue that caused the bug to
surface.

And unless you had one named "Mohammed" and the "Mohammed Sucks" drive
was the boot drive, you would not have encountered the iTunes 2.0 upgrade
issue.

The root cause was a shell command using unquoted paths containing
spaces.

Yep.

Wi-Fi works fine for me in 10.10.1, as it did in 10.10.0.

That particular problem is apparently affecting some Macs, but it is not
a universal bug affecting every Mac. That makes it difficult to fix,
because the conditions required to trigger the problem may not be
obvious. It may also be multiple problems with similar symptoms, each
affecting a subset of Macs. 10.10.1 may have fixed some of the problems
but not all of them.

In your case, earlier posts indicate you think you are affected by a
Yosemite Wi-Fi bug because your computer doesn't immediately connect to
your Wi-Fi network. Have you investigated the other possible causes for
that behaviour?

An obvious one is if you have connected to a lot of Wi-Fi networks and
built up a large list, the system tries each network in the list until
it finds one. A big list means it will take longer to find a particular
network. The list is searched from top to bottom, so you should have
your most freqently used networks near the top of the list.

Reordering my Wi-Fi network list and purging networks I'd probably never
use again made a big difference to my Wi-Fi connection times in earlier
OS X versions.

Sometimes there is a delay, which I think is because the system missed
the network the first time around, and it needs to get to the end of the
list before trying the first network again. Keeping the list short
reduces this delay.

Yep. I have had that exact same experience with my wife's MacBook pro,
which had over 20 remembered networks, of which our home network was not
first-most. We had taken the thing on a road trip and accumulated a
bunch of WiFi networks during the trip. After cleaning up the list and
ensuring our home network was first in the list, the slow connectivity
issue was gone. And this was before Yosemite was released, so I know
very well that problem existed long before Yosemite came around. : )

The point of this story is that the warnings of lower software quality
do not come from one user, they come from some developpers and some high
profile prople like Gassée.

The fact that non-Apple fan boys agree with this adds to it, but the key
people's opinions is what counts.


BTW, Apple supports a limited set of hardware configs. It ism't that
hard to do QA on its new software on all the hardware that Apple has
certified will run it.

And in the case of Wi-Fi, they only need to test it with laptops and
compyters that came equipped with wi-fi.

This isn't like Microsoft which runs on a gazillion different machines
with different hardware and very loose standards.

Anyone can fall prey to faulty memory. Selective memory isn't evidence
of a downward trend in quality over time. You still have yet to show a
shred of evidence to support your claim. Fail.

> The fact that non-Apple fan boys agree with this adds to it

The only thing added is more nonsense.

> but the key people's opinions is what counts.

Actually, what counts is the truth - and nothing much else. So far all I
see is a bunch of people conveniently dismissing the fact that bugs have
always been around while pointing at recent bugs as supposed evidence of
a decline in quality. You haven't proven your theory that there is a
downward trend in quality. Fail.

If hardware were the only variant that might mean something. Your
naivety is showing. There are many more variables.

More naivety.

Frankly the people who I have heard complan the most about Apple's 
software degeneration are Apple users and Apple fans themselves.  Look 
at Apple's own support forums and you'll see legions of loyal Apple 
users complaining about bugs and literally PLEADING for resolution.  
Some of those bugs are over a decade old now.

Part of this is Steve's legacy, too - while Steve was very wise in not 
asking the general public what they wanted when introducing a new 
product, he instituted a policy at Apple that problems and complaints 
receive no official acknowledgement either.  It makes it impossible to 
determine if bugs are going to be fixed, software supported into the 
future, and so forth.

This policy assuredly makes it easier for Apple to deal with complaints 
- by pretending they don't exist - but it also demonstrates a lack of 
care for the customer.

In other words, same shit, different day. So far I've seen zero evidence
of a decline in quality - just a bunch of fools claiming the existence
of problems magically equates to a downward trend.

I have no clue who you are but J-R's a solid dude other than wanting 
harder proof of things when one states something about Apple.

I get that.

He's wrong of course.  But I get it.  ;-)
