Last week's column was basically a rant about things that bothered me about Ubuntu's GNOME/Linux combination. Besides the usual 'I do not experience the problems you have, so you must be an anti-GNOME troll!' and of the course the ever-present 'How on earth can you complain about Free software!', it did what is was supposed to do: bring problems under developer's direct attention (for instance, Evolution's UI maintainer emailed me, asking for more clarification). Now it's Apple's turn. Here is a list of problems I find the most annoying about Apple's Mac/MacOS.

I have a mac mini core duo with 2GB RAM set up to dual boot Windows XP. OS X and Windows XP on this same box have equal snappy. That is to say, they are very VERY snappy.
My old G4 mini didn't really have teh snappy, especially when you would right-click on something there was an annoying delay before the menu appeared, but the new intel core duo is as snappy as I can imagine an OS being.
