We God-fearin' folk north of the border clearly know the difference between right and wrong. Can't have two consenting adults who love each other going and marrying each other.
One of the mid-90s Macs (for some reason I think Classic or Classic II) had a copy of System 5 in ROM for last-resort troubleshooting. I think that was a great idea -- a bare bones version of the OS that's guaranteed to be good. Ah, Apple.
The chimes of death scared the hell out of me the first time I heard them. When they replaced it with the car crash in the Power Macs (I think that's when it was,) that scared the hell out of me, too. In fact, hearing anything but the comforting Mac "bong" would scare the hell out of me.
Yea, but the whole OS looked like warmed over then re-frozen crap. This is flamebait, I know, but I have never seen anything as hideous as the Amiga GUI.

all day long? That and the god-awful flickering interlaced mode that seemed so popular. If it wasn't squished it was vibrating. Ghastly, ghastly OS.
Actually, it's a rainbow "beachball." When NEXTSTEP was released in 1988, the only media the NeXT Computer had was a 256 MB optical drive. The wait cursor looked like a spinning optical disc. When the NeXTDimension 32bit color board was released, NeXT users were delighted (or dismayed) to see it spinning in all the colors of the rainbow. The wheel looked like diffracted light off of optical media.
I, for one, was delighted to see that very same wait cursor in Mac OS X 10.0-10.1. Unfortunately, it's now bigger and more cartoony in 10.2 and doesn't look a lot like its fifteen year old predecessor.
I have her "Be Good" t-shirt (with the Pope icon on it.) I always get good comments on that one.
If you really want to be impressed, check out her five dots and six dots fonts. They're beautiful. I use them regularly for detail work in my webpages (including my homepage.) Just great. Well worth the money.
My biggest bother is that function overloading isn't supported in a stable fashion. Half the times I'm inclined to use objects, it's because of overloaded constructors.
If you can install Debian, you can probably get through the ballot. Once the software/leader is in, it's all easy from there, but getting to the point where it all works is half the fun and effort in learning.:-)
Or as sensible people call it, playing games. I don't know why, but the term 'gaming' really irks me. I think I might be responding poorly to people who aren't doing anything really worthwhile convincing themselves that they are and giving it a worthwhile-sounding name.
The next time you want to make a first post, you may want to consider the fact that your participial phrase is dangling. And as a result, you've made an error with your plurals.
A brief explanation: The phrase must refer to the grammatical subject. The grammatical subject of your sentence is your balls. They are what are being covered with duct tape. When you refer to ripping "it" off, you are accidentally referring to the grammatical subject -- your balls -- so you're saying something really awful and you're saying it incorrectly.
Note that I didn't say that I don't line non-IB apps. What I was implying was that IB creates results that emphasize the differences between Carbon and Cocoa.
I was disappointed that the programs I was currently running were so obvious. How about this: Open Backup or iChat. Think about using those programs. Then open up IE or the Script Editor and think about how those programs feel. You can't tell me that -- previous knowledge or not -- the programs aren't clearly different.
I can see each cartridge having a signature. The printer keeps track of which cartridges have which levels and if the levels ever go up, the printer rejects the cartridge.
After ten years, you have to get a hard drive upgrade for the printer's DMCA storage. Fortunately, they're designed to fail after a year.:-)

As we don't know each other and can't know that the other is being honest, it's awfully difficult to come to some sort of conclusion. And it's hard to be specific about things like feel and nuance in a program. I'm sure I'm wrong sometimes, but I suspect that I'm right far more often than I'm wrong.
For some background: I was a NeXT user before I got my previous PowerBook, and the Carbon apps made me scrunch my nose every time I used them. It was more obvious in the past, but the differences persist. Some are specifically the result of Cocoa practices and tools (like IB.)
The heck it doesn't! Tell me that you can't tell if you're using a Carbon or Cocoa app within a few moments of launching it. The look and the feel are substantiall different. Even the UI design motivations appear to be different. At least to me, they are.

Isn't retalliation for crimes the antithesis of our modern legal notions?

I knew someone would point that out. Well done. I tried to think of another sound, but a "bong" really is the closest onamonapeia I could figure.

Optical disc, actually. I wrote a little bit about it up above. Pretty cool stuff.
It's a reasonable font, but I have nothing but praise for un-antialiased Monaco 9 and 10 for my code. It's amazing.
Uh, it does.

When everyone knows it's pronounced 'seksy.'

Bravo. The almost anti-people perspectives of some people really piss me the heck off.
