Comment Re: How? (Score 2) 219

Apple already knew they needed to replace Classic Mac OS and had been trying unsuccessfully for years. That's when they decided to go with a pre-built solution and started looking at NextSTEP and BeOS. They picked NextSTEP and Steve brought the NextSTEP devs with him and overhauled both hardware and software in a remarkably short period of time.

But it didn't take Steve coming back for Apple to realize that Classic Mac OS was on it's last legs. The crazy amount of time and money Apple invested in replacing Mac OS, and failing to actually do so, is part of why they were near death in the first place.

Comment Arch (Score 1) 5

I like Arch based distros because those people are the ones who provide the KDE help I need when I google issues. :)

I'm running Fedora, have been forever so I doubt I'll change unless something crazy happens but since I don't use the default DE - it seems the Arch folks are always the ones who have my answers. So I appreciate them even if I don't use it.

Just saw this and thought I'd say hi. I'm in the last few days of a visit to the US. I'm in Phoenix until Wednesday and then I head back to Hungary.

I hope you are doing really well.

Comment Hungarian was a bad choice (Score 1) 100

I am a native English speaker living in Hungary and I can say without reservation that Google Translate is really bad at Hungarian. It can handle individual words ok sometimes but anything beyond that and it falls apart quickly. So even without sound issues, it's not really something you can use for any communication beyond the most basic.

I've still got 80% of a novel I did for nanowrimo that I want to finish and put out there but I never seem to get around to it.

I hope you are doing really well.
