Recently, a person on this newsgroup, who claims to be a Mac user,
wrote the following statements on the same issue (making aliases in
OSX) :


"It is true, though, that the bug he has found exists with both List

... and


"Yup, you found a bug Steve."


Aftfer these "bug" *type statements this Mac user then wrote these
kinds of statements on this issue:


"And Steve wants people to now believe that this does not work the
same on ?his machine... when the problem is *undoubtedly* user error.
Undoubtedly."


... and


"The problem is user error. But Steve likes to make up stories about
the problems he has with his Macs... he does not
accept the fact he is just an incompetent user. "


In the past, this Mac user has also written the following statement
about how he believes he differs from "many in csma""


"Unlike many in csma, I do not focus my views on personalities".


If this person isn't merely focusing on a personality here, isn't this
person being an Apple apologist for claiming something he himself has
labeled as a "bug" in OSX is *"*undoubtedly*" an example of "user
error" by an "incompetent user"?


The "person" you refer to is an idiot who is consumed with his hatred for
you. *Even though he admits it is a bug from Apple he blames you. *He think
you and Steve Jobs are the same person. *I guess last names are too
confusing for him.



(snip some BS by Snit)


* Steve was right to note that with the other views it is not
* quite the same


Yup... it's what you called a "bug"... an "inconsistency".

- the keystrokes have to be done in a very
* particular way. *


You recognize this, yet, you're saying the "error" here is mine. LOL!

Hint: This is an Apple "error".

While this way works with icon view, other
* ways that work with icon view do not work with the other views.
* This is a minor bug - an area of arbitrary inconsistency.


And, notably, you're *still* calling it a "bug"... an
"inconsistency"... while you simultaneously call it my "user error".

Put the crack pipe down now, Snit

Because Steve does not understand how things are not always black and white
he is, again, lost. *


Apple did something even you admit is inconsistent... I pointed it
out... and you call me lost. What meds can you possibly be mixing
together that would get you this high? LOL!

Steve showed he was


.... right about the "inconsistency" of OSX, that you're labeling a
"bug"? Yes, I did show that.


Oh: and I predict since I responded to a post of his (well, his socks),
Steve will insist that this means I read *all* of his posts.


It's far more than obvious that you read all of my posts. People just
aren't as stupid as you need them to be.
