I set up a quick experiment by sending an email to myself from work … attached was a Microsoft Word document containing containing a unique text phrase. When I got home, I fired up the iMac, started Mail, then started Spotlight and typed in the unique phrase. Spotlight found that phrase in the email attachment, and it happened so fast that I didn’t finish typing before the attachment was identified.

Spotlight was quick and efficient at finding a text phrase inside a file which was attached to an email message. Did I misunderstand his problem?

Macs can run Windows applications, including Windows itself, and just as fast and stable, if not faster and stabler.

Think the reverse will ever be true? Never in your wildest dreams.

And, to the guy right above me, and to you too, Walt, I regret to inform you that you both must be hallucinating. There is no X in a red circle. There are three wet/shiny-looking buttons at the top left of every window, red, amber and green. None have an X in them.

And, we Mac users tend not to quit open apps, so we don’t need a Quit button staring at us all day. The multi-threading Intel processor is not taxed in the least by leaving unused apps open in the background.

Look dude this guys going to push the red X thinking it’s going to Quit the Application. Look He Did it! Hey Bob the programs still running! No it’s no I pushed the red X! See all I have to do is push the Icon for the program on the Dock. The application opens and everyone laughs.

Don’t get me wrong, I think that’s absolutely Hilarious, and I Understand why someone would do it but why did they actually decide to to ship the Damn Operating System like that. If Someone did that at my company I would fire them right away. But no they’re not that stupid they know that people are going to be driven crazy by this feature, and they may have to go the Mac Store and ask why Applications aren’t Quitting when they push the Red Button with an X on It. Red as In Red Light which Means Stop, and X which Means don’t do this. I Mean seriously this is the most screwed up thing Ever.

Also I ROTFLMAO every time Someone on Here Says I Accidentally Quit the Application.

REALLY YOU PUSHED A BUTTON WITH A BIG FREAKING X ON IT AND YOUR SURPRISED THAT THE PROGRAM QUIT!!! WHAT DID YOU EXPECT IT TO DO KEEP RUNNING, OH WAIT THAT’S IT DOES ON YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM!!!! PLEASE CAN SOMEONE TELL ME THAT THEIR JUST KIDDING ABOUT ACCIDENTALLY QUITING APPLICATIONS!!!!!

PLEASE!!! PLEASE!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

I MEAN I CAN UNDERSTAND HOW SOMEONE COULD ACCIDENTALLY CLOSE AN APPLICATION, BUT I NEVER THOUGHT SOMEONE WOULD ACTUALLY BE STUPID ENOUGH TO ACCIDENTALLY QUIT AN APPLICATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOOK WHAT YOU DID NOW I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
