The only thing more pathetic than a PC user is a PC user trying to be a Mac user. We have a name for you people: switcheurs.

There's a good reason for your vexation at the Mac's user interface: You don't speak its language. Remember that the Mac was designed by artists, for artists, be they poets, musicians, or avant-garde mathematicians. A shiny new Mac can introduce your frathouse hovel to a modicum of good taste, but it can't make Mac users out of dweebs and squares like you.

So don't force what doesn't come naturally. You'll be much happier if you stick to an OS that suits your personality. And you'll be doing the rest of us a favor, too; you leave Macs to Mac users, and we'll leave beige to you.

what is useful about GNUstep? I read throw the Wikipedia article on it, and I got the impression that it is yet another GUI toolkit.

The only thing more pathetic than a Linux user is a Linux user trying to be a NeXT user. We have a name for you people: switcheurs.

There's a good reason for your vexation at NeXT's application framework: You don't speak its language. Remember that NeXT was designed by artists, for artists, be they poets, musicians, or avant-garde mathematicians. A shiny new NeXTStep Cube can introduce your frathouse hovel to a modicum of good taste, but it can't make NeXT users out of dweebs and squares like you.
