OS X Blues Haiku
I love Apple and OS X and would never really consider using any other platform. OS X delivers far and away the finest user experience in the realm of personal computing. However, that doesn't mean the system is without fault. Even the best computers and operating systems are still prone to frustrating little quirks. So, for fun, I've put together some little quips, roughly thrown into haiku format, to decry (in a goofing sort of way) some of the little annoyances I've come up against. These are totally stream of consciousness, really awful as far as haiku goes and likely the first of many.
Painful grinding CPU
450MHz was once fast
Must find $3000
Mocking beach ball spins
Damn you Illustrator 10
Why are you so slow
White block frozen screen
Dock icons pogo like punks
Classic crashed again
Finder lost it's way
Still it is better to be lost
Than use a PC
Error type -37
What the hell can you mean
My file won't copy
I'll add more as they come to me. Please feel free to add your own via comments.
