Er, perhaps you should look back at the list? I asked mostly about
newsgroup cliants, access to safari not being what it should be,
using the mac for digital editting, using it to access podcasts and
so on like that. Thing is, I got on with it, unlike you. You seem to
just be intent on pissing people off by sending thousands of messages
per day. We have better things to do than constantly answer your
questions because your inept and can't use your computer.

What the hell is that supposed to mean. I have learned alott. The
funny thing is that you haven't posted anything to help, you just
have negative comments. Don't like the questions then get off the
list like Jedd said. I wonder what questions you wwere asking when
you firsts sat down to learn the Mac.

Yes but your getting on with learning, unlike somebody else I
could mention. It isn't directed at the people who are "trying".

Good for you.
If you don't like the messages people are posting, then don't read.
Personally I have been a mac user for 3 weeks, and have learned a
lot thanks
to people on this list.
Personally, I'm not a read it manual kind of guy, and learn by
doing.

Hi folks,
What is it with some people on this list not bothering to read
documentation
or attempt to work things out for themselves? This Sean person or
whoever he
is constantly posts without any common sense. He doesn't seem to
obviously
read documentation. Alright, I have asked the odd question but
let's run
down what I managed to do within my first month:
1. Sorted out male
2. Sorted out newsgroup access.
3. Gotten myself a decent set of apps for digital editting.
4. Installed all the tools necessary for writing and playing
interactive
fiction.
5. Gotten myself aquainted with mac OS from scratch as it is a
good deal
different to OS 9 with outspoken.
6. Installed and used VLC media player.
7. Gotten Fusion for running windows and installed it independently.
8. Managed to update my blog and get to grips with Marsedit 2.0
Oh, let me
see, I bought my mac in august and started from nothing?
I forgot, people on this list seem to think I don't know what
the hell I
am on about. With a wide range of experience in music composition,
arrangement and engineering, not to mention mathematical research
and so on
I am well aquainted with computers and there abilities. I started
with
Eureka A4 systems, programmed them and used them for music
composition and
arrangement.
My point really is that it is getting rather boring to see the
same requests
on this list and people don't take time to learn things.
Why? If you buy a mac, invest the time in learning it.
Just my thoughts.
