Okay, don't flame me. I'm a big Mac fan. I actually love Panther. It has lots of new great features.

Here is the problem with Panther. After installing the latest Panther, I haven't gotten much work done. I can't concentrate on my progamming. Spend too much time playing around with the new OS and all the new applications and utilities. It's just nuts and too much fun. It's just too distracting. I hope within a month or two, I can get back to doing some work.

What the nerd community most often fail to realize is that all features aren't equal. A well implemented and well integrated feature in a convenient interface is worth way more than the same feature implemented crappy, or accessed through a annoying interface.

No, I just realize this morning that I haven't gotten any work done and it's because I've been playing around with panther too much instead of doing real work.

Oh well, screw the deadline.

This happens to me every day, even without Panther... but to learn the entire summer for university exams calls for distraction

I have the MacOS to blame.

Not necessarily undocumented features only but can be those little things that made you glad to be a Mac User. You know, those little things that count.

Heh, that feature could be very helpful to some people because it actually help them to finish their works without being tempted to surf the net

Mac OS X 10.2.8 -- now with patented InternetKill!

If only Adam had been working for Apple, maybe they wouldn't have had to pull the update after all.
