    "I dont know, SkyPoo. Apple's moves with Final Cut Studio have been excellent."

    Gil Amelio's Apple served its customers well, Jobs' Apple has ushered in the codification, packaging and resale of creativity to the point that everyone is a photographer, a film maker, a band, a graphic designer, a retoucher, a web designer, an animator, an 'artist'... and the value of all creativity has been decimated to the point where the industry, and applied creativity, will eventually collapse. That's not purely Jobs' doing, no, but he was emblematic of the new democracy of creative endeavour, and he was a key architect of it... and he profits from undermining the very industry that made his Apple the behemoth it is today.

    "let's go back to OS7, quark and 3 inch screens then"

    No, lets have progress and advancement, but lets allow creativity to be the exclusive domain of the creative, and lets allow their tools to be focussed on creative tasks, not feature creeped into buggery so they are bloated and divided and reek of built in obsolescence by this domino effect of New Browser... needs new OS system... needs new hardware... needs new apps... needs new peripherals... neeeds new software... needs new OS...needs new hardware... needs new browser... needs new itunes... needs new etc etc.
