Why I hate working on a Mac

-- The "user friendly" interface sucks
-- I cannot figure out how to rename documents without "making an alias" or having to copy, change the name of the document, and then erase the original document
-- MacShapa deserves to die a million deaths

I'm sure it has its good points. Just about everything has some. But I just spent the last hour slaving over problems with a file and the Mac's awkward features (as coming from a person who primarily uses a PC) became glaringly apparent.

... Sheesh.

To rename a document, you click on the name of the file, like you would on a PC. If you click it once, then it'll light up and you can type a new name in. Hope that helps!

Thanks. I ended up having to double-click several times to get it to work; I guess the wireless mouse is dying.

But... But I love my iMac. ._.

And I'm sure you're probably used to its interface, which is the big difference here.

Oh, you've played Animal Crossing Wild World, right? Would you recommend it? I was thinking of buying it for my brother.

AC:WW is delicious. You should definately purchase it for your brother; it never gets boring.

I have hot monkey sex with my DS everytime I turn it on. *rawr*

That's too. I hate working with the PC at work sometimes. ^^; I think tt's just hard to use a type of computer you're not used to.
