My comment about the App store was a reply to someone who had mentioned something about the App store and having to get software only from there. Imagine if that was the only place to get Mac software and downloading was the only way?

I hope so because as nice as it seems to some and as great as the whole icon thing is on my iPhone and on the iPad, I still prefer the "old" way of working with the Finder. Also the multi-touch can get tiring after awhile. I much prefer my mighty mouse (although it does get frustrating when the tiny "trackball" on the mouse starts acting up due to dirt). -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
