Well, fine, I don't see how I was being childish, but I'll try not to be. Was it the 'my' documents complaint ? ... they even made me do that when I was taking C++ classes, all the functions had my prefixes, and after forgetting to type the my prefix when calling the functions like at least 1,000,000 times, it really started to piss me off when my programs wouldn't work cuz I forgot the friendly my prefix ... I suppose that anger stayed with me so that I hate any 'my' prefix anywhere. But, ok, maybe it was a bit childish to get angry over such a seemingly insignificant thing as a 'my' prefix.
WMD:
That's among your best posts. Retain its content, please. You don't have to shout out about the my prefix to hate Microsoft. ;) Oh, and you used the $ a few too many times. :D
On another note, here I have "Macintosh HD" - it's Macintosh's hard drive, not mine? What is Macintosh, anyway? :D
H_TeXMeX_H:
Mac is supposedly named after the McIntosh apple, a red and green colored apple ... I suppose that's where they got their older Mac apple emblem (it used to be red and green ... not anymore)
WMD:
So...my hard drive is owned by fruit? :D
(I actually knew what they named the computer after, I was really wondering if "Macintosh" really was something tangible. It's not...a more correct title would be "Apple HD.")
