    Yeah GIMP isn't Photoshop... nut I do have to say that I liked PS3.0x better in one respect over the newer versions.

    Back then I could rotate a selection instead of the whole damn image. And what's this obsession with creating a new layer every time a bloody mouse farts? I don't need a seperate layer for a simple line tool segment.

    I hate the changes made mostly because they are annoying.

    The only thing I can see in that article is the "staffing costs" that could make windows better. Becuase MS has so many more users, the up front training cost is less, thus they think it costs less.

    Go figure.

    It makes little sense.

    You can use statistics to prove anything, which is what Microsoft did in that "report". 78% of people know that!

    Hmm.... A MicroSoft funded report saying that using MicroSoft products is better. Isn't that similar to all the tobacco company research concluding that smoking does no harm whatsoever?

    No bias here, just like Fox news.... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/rolleyes.gif[/img]
