Probably the nicest thing that Apple does. Of course it makes it easier for you to give them money too, but wtf. "></outline>

This is important because I like to run a lot of &lt;a href=&quot;http://bloatware.org/&quot;&gt;bloatware&lt;/a&gt;, concurrently. More speed is goodness. It means I can keep more balls in the air. "></outline>

			<outline created="Fri, 21 Dec 2012 16:34:14 GMT" pgfnum="16221" text="They keep changing the plugs in the back. So old devices stop working because there's no more Firewire on the thing, for example. "></outline>
			<outline created="Fri, 21 Dec 2012 16:34:37 GMT" pgfnum="16222" text="The keyboard has the Control key in a different place. This meant that for the first few days I can't type quickly, everything has to slow. down. so. I. can. be. sure. my. fingers. are properly. positioned. over. the. right. keys. Try typing with a period after every word and you'll get a good idea what the re-learning experience is like. And what will it be like when I go back to the MacBook Air, which I still use when traveling? I'll let you know."></outline>
			<outline created="Fri, 21 Dec 2012 17:14:11 GMT" pgfnum="16227" text="A few pieces of software I depend on required upgrades to run on the new OS. One of them wasn't free, VMWare, which charged $45 for the upgrade. Not sure if I get any features I need for this, but it does work on the new OS."></outline>

That would be a glitch. But the travesty is that there are things you can't do on the new scrollbars that you can do on the old ones. "></outline>

This would be like Fender moving around the frets on a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_Telecaster&quot;&gt;Telecaster&lt;/a&gt;. Or the knob that adjusts the pitch of one of the strings. Maybe I can adjust by composing my song in a different key, but tell me, what the fuck were you thinking when you did this, Apple??"></outline>

That's why I have to write this review now, to vent the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sputum&quot;&gt;sputum&lt;/a&gt; they added to what otherwise would have been a mostly-lovely experience, for which, btw, I paid $2500."></outline>
