Tog Takes on Mac OS X 10.3

Posted by pudge on from the go-get-em-tog dept.

Rick Zeman writes "Bruce 'Tog' Tognazzini, founder of Apple's Human Interface Group years ago, has finally pointed his electrons to Mac OS X 10.3. He's been dormant for while, and hasn't said anything since the early days of Mac OS X. His new articles include 'Panther: The Good, The Bad and the Ugly' and 'The Top Nine Reasons why the Dock Sucks,' all coming from A Guy Who Knows."

    That's what you get for talking bad about OS X. Punkass.

    I prefer a void in conversation to a vacuous one.

    That's the thing about HCI people. They're part of an entire field devoted to telling you that your opinion is wrong.

    Or, as the joke goes:

    "Give an HCI person a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach an HCI person how to fish, and he'll give you a Visio diagram detailing why your way is all wrong." :)

    making the dock affect the actual item makes it dangerously powerful.

    Not to mention the fact that if the critics were to succeed and actually strike down the Dock, it would become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
