Data Reinforcing Good Decisions

It’s things like this (Daring Fireball: BBEdit 8) that make me happy with my choices in computers and software. I mean, when the only major complaint about a new piece of software is that they’ve changed the icon, you know it’s a damn good update.

On the flip side, it’s things like this (Why does my mouse/touchpad sometimes go berzerk?) that make me glad I’ve made the choices in computers and software that I have. While the Windows world was futzing about with (very, very ugly) 1-way byte stream protocols, we in Mac land had a nice, 7-device, packet-based protocol that side-stepped a lot of nonsense.

I’ll probably expand more on these at some point this weekend, but first I need to actually put BBEdit 8 to use, and I need to get some homework started so that I can avoid doing the homework by updating this post. [Convoluted sentence? Perhaps.]
