[QUOTE="ovbg, post: 1175068, member: 162687"] Please don't take this the wrong way, but not everything Apple does is perfect. Sure, Apple innovated in many ways, and to be honest Microsoft copies many of them to improve their O.S. But sometimes it works the other way around. And not everything is more intuitive or more efficient. The increasing windows discussion is perfect for this. Obviously Apple wanted people to be able to increase the size of the window, but why only offer one inefficient way to do it? One little corner which you can drag, compared to multiple methods on a Win7 machine. Any way you look at it, bar one, it is more efficient on Win7. You can enlarge at the corner just like on a Mac but you can also enlarge on the sides, you can drag the window to the top and it becomes full screen. Drag to the sides and it becomes half screen (perfect for pairing two windows together) These are other options and they really work well. Now, I also love the Apple + button which makes it the size to fit what you need. Win7 lacks that. In fact, with the Win7 snap feature, the windows + is pretty pointless now as the snap feature replicates it. So, with Hyperdock, I get the best of what Apple came up with and the best of Microsof ;O) The Plug in doesn't make my machine more Windows. It just makes it better. I have more options, and options which are very useful. I could say the same for your way of thinking. Why stick with something that is not as efficient? Maybe if you gave that plug in a try, you would find it is actually an improvement. What if Apple decided to add that in to the next release? Will it suddenly be useful because Apple did it? I gave OSX time, and yes I love it. But in that time I found that [I]some[/I] things were not as good as what the latest offerings on Win7 is. Not all. It's not me saying Win7 is better. It's not me saying OSX is not as good. It's me saying that some things Mircosoft came up with in their latest OS is actually pretty good. And whilst I'm at it, there is no way in the world I can think one hand on the keyboard and one on the mouse is more efficient than a right click. Then again, at least Apple came around to this one ;O) I love my Mac and it's OS, but I that doesn't mean I'm blind to advantages the competition comes out with. Maybe you should open up to some of these as well. [/QUOTE]
