This is because a developer typically needs little more than a few text apps to do their coding, a copy of Dreamweaver, a Web browser, and in some cases, an image editor for working with low-resolution graphics. The fact that Apple released any hardware at all at WWDC is fairly rare (though it has been happening more frequently the last few years). Ok, what part of DEVELOPERS CONFERENCE don’t you understand? Yesterday wasn’t Macworld Expo, it was a relatively small conference for DEVELOPERS. Is it possible, just slightly possible, that YOU are the problem, and not Safari? Please shut up! What, no new MacPro?: You dolts are the only people out of hundreds of thousands that appear to have this problem. Why the hell would Apple do such a thing? The little rotating arrow from the beta was so elegant and out of the way… Grrrrr! For the love of God people, just look at the damn page – does it look loaded to you? If not, wait just another half a freaking second! Is that so much to ask? And to the 40 booger-eaters out there that post in every forum, support board, and blog article about how Safari constantly crashes and has completely hosed their entire computer, let me just say this. So Apple made it a little bigger, a little bolder in color, and painfully obvious at even a brief glance that a page is loading. No, you just couldn’t live with the little round indicator taking up relatively no space in the URL field. First you had to have a blue progress bar behind the URL field to indicate a page was still loading – as if you were so stupid that the half-loaded images on a mostly blank Web page weren’t indication enough that it was still loading. Progress Indicator – And what about that Load/Progress indicator. How could Apple do such a stupid thing? I mean, you’ve had Tabs below the toolbar in every browser available for many years, but after just 4 months of a beta app, you’ve completely fell in love with Tabs on top.
#Mac os safari sucks mac
So what do I see in the comments of virtually every article about Safari 4 yesterday – after just four months of having them on top? No, not people happy to see them back, ohhhh no! Now everyone wants to throw their Mac in the trash and switch to Windows because Apple had the freaking nerve to move the tabs back below – where they obviously don’t belong. Fast forward to yesterday, Apple releases Safari 4 and because of all the bitching and moaning, the Tabs are now back where they were in Safari 3, below the toolbar. People immediately threw their Mac in the trash can and switched to Windows because Apple experimented (IN A FREAKING BETA) with moving the browser Tabs from below Safari’s toolbar to above it, thus saving approximately 20 pixels of space by placing it in a relatively useless window bar.
Tabs – Apple released the beta of Safari 4 back in February. Today, just one day after Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), I have a whole new dump truck to unload on you… Let’s start off with Safari 4:
Back in February, I went off on Apple’s utterly stupid lack of menu bar customization. It’s time for another rant here at The Graphic Mac.
