Apple Fanboy complains shokka
MULESOURCE CEO, and self confessed Apple fanboy, Dave Rosenberg, has created a bit of a stir for daring to suggest that Apple's new operating system Leopard is shonkey
Speaking to
Cnet, Rosenberg said that he had been a sworn Mac user since 1995 and could not use Windows to save his life.
He was one of the first to buy the fruit themed manufacturer's Leopard OS and the new iLife.
However, he said that Leopard takes computing back to a time when you had to save everything every ten minutes because you expected it to crash.
He said that he was bred into a "save early, save often" because the early Macs used to crash more often than a car driven by Stevie Wonder.
However he thought that had became a thing of the past with OS X. The OS was also rock solid and the applications crashed far less.
With Leopard he has at least one Apple brand application crash every few hours. Mail.app and iCal are particularly flaky.
The computer crashes and computers, Blackberrys, the calendar gets corrupted.
Garage Band is highly unstable and after a few hours of just being on GB, it starts to slow down and crashes repeatedly, he said.
Despite the fact that Apple has clearly flogged him a lemon, Rosenberg refuses to tell people to change operating systems.
He said his Mac problems don't even come to close to the 'screwiness and nightmare' that Windows can be. Although it is not clear that when in the last 12 years he has actually used Windows or Linux.
Rosenberg wished that Apple would stop focusing on iPods and get back to making computers.
It seems that Rosenberg has got brickbats from those who think he is a retard for not being able to work Windows and from other Apple fanboys who feel he has lost his faith in the Tao of Steve Jobs.
