I think

The problem is, you don't. That's what makes it witless.

Since Around Panther the only update that has caused problems was Leopard and that, it turned out, because companies like Logitech were using haxies in direct contravention of Apple's programming guidelines (for which Apple inevitably got the short end of the stick - I remember giles, late of this parish, demanding that Apple test every conceivable combination of hardware and software before release).

I'm sure that's all true, but I don't see any particular relevance to the post you quoted (and replied to).

Did you intend to reply to this one? It would make more sense that way

Possibly.

I'm sure the world will still turn on its axis, it will long after a theoretical vulnerability requiring special kit is forgotten.

Chill Ian, put on flame retardant pants and let the rants wash over you. Remember, at least one of the ranters has actually bought a Windows tablet..

You make a fair point (although I prefer this place when it is people asking for and receiving help on matters Mac and iDevice, without the chuckle brothers engaging in their favourite hobby).

Windows tablet. Blimey....

Who was dumb enough to buy a Windows tablet?

Someone smarter than one who has bought an iPad, possibly.

I have no problems using my Microsoft Surface or Windows operating system, then again I do have a brain and I usually conduct myself professionally at work, I suppose if I was a bit of a moron then an iPad or android would suit me fine.

OK, I am probably upsetting someone on here that I like now, but seriously, I wouldn't buy an iPad anyday now, overpriced compared to Android and not as superior as Windows.

In it's day the iPad was a good choice (the only real choice). Heck, I bought one for my son and one for myself. But I wouldn't buy one now. It would have to be a Nexus or one of the Samsung ones. Like most Apple products the iPad is part of history now - fondly remembered, but yesterday's technology. The share price says it all.

Aw, sweet. huddling together again.

Look, it isn't that you bought a Surface (although that is quite funny), but that you blather in about it the Apple forum.

STOP TROLLING.

Both of you.

I'm talking about Apple products in the Apple forum. Seems to be the right place, and the right topic, rather than irrelevancies about Windows tablets.

I think the trolling in this particular subthread was started by yourself and carlthebus.
