Apple well understood the need of ultimate design supporting an extremely easy and logical GUI.
Cheetah 3d windows plus#
As a long time Mac user, from its very early beginnings, going as far back as my Mac Plus and Aldus Pagemaker just out of high school, and as a professional Graphic Designer 30 years later, I always have stood by the real and obvious superiority of the Apple Operating System in design and function. (Though I expect to own this iMac for a number of years yet) I would be sad to leave Cheetah behind but I am not sure how much longer I can justify paying over the odds for outdated hardware. As for developing iOS apps for me at least it is painful (mostly because of Xcode which I wouldn't describe as a professional IDE), and I am only on my first one!!! Xcode is mostly awful and like much of the Apple eco systems misses out on stability and useful if uncool features in favour of flashiness, which is a shame because MacOS has some really nice features. The only two apps I have that are Mac only are Cheeth and Xcode. I think the only thing that keeps me a Mac user is I prefer MacOS to windows, and Linux just seems to much effort. A bit of thought and their much vaunted user experience genius and they could have realised ports on the back are not helpful or accessible, and with the thickness of the previous style they could have added slide in bays for hard drives. I was happy with the previous "fat" design, the current one not looking much different form the front. I sit in front of my computer not off to the side gazing lovely at how thin it looks. That right there was the moment they lost it. I remember the ads for the new(current) iMacs style gushing over how thin they are when viewed from the the side. hell I would settle for eSATA (Thunderbolt again is overpriced). The hardware seems to be at least a year old and the prices are more and more ridiculous, the machines less and less user upgradable, I don't want much, just to be able to swap memory and it would be nice to be able to add new internal hard disks. It used to be easy to justify paying the price for a Mac, but not anymore.
