As much as I loved mac in the days of Windows 3.1, it was much more user friendly, I have now lived in a PC environment for over 15 years. While my HP is in the shop, I am using a four year old Toshiba laptop with XP. I obediently downloaded iTunes so I could use iTunes U. and take EDU 505 at the University of Saint Francis. A few days later, Apple had an update for my software. I downloaded and my IE-7 promptly stopped working. It thinks I am off line and will not connect to the Internet. Thankfully, I already had Firefox on my computer.
The Microsoft, Adobe wars are even more frustrating. Microsoft has introduced its own pdf format that is infinitely inferior to Adobe, but that they want PC users to use. Now we have a seemingly unending stream of competing updates from Microsoft and Adobe. Oy Vey!
