Help Forums - Littered with Helpful Buggers

The great thing about help forums is that there are plenty of nice people who are willing to help new users with whatever problems they have.

Veteran Linux users will tell new converts to type unrecognized jargon and ask them to compile programs with required libraries from various distros etc.

Mac users are the most helpful. Reinstall OSX being the most common solution with the odd 'fire up the terminal' and type unrecognized jargon and start messing about with apple scripts.

PC users are also helpful too. Again, reinstall Windows being the most common solution with the odd 'works for me' solutions that only works for and only for 'me'.

iPhone help forums are also littered with helpful users. They meticulously explain the solution to a problem with detailed steps and then when it doesn't work, they helpfully inform you that it needs to be jail broken.

Helpful buggers.

Aluminum Keyboard - Plain and Flat

I have come to the conclusion that the iMac flat aluminum keyboard is one of the best looking keyboard ever.

However, it is also one of the keyboards that is absolutely terrible for aspiring, brain starved, burned out writers.

The flat design makes it so uninspiring, so plain, so cold, so simplistic that the IBM clickety clickey keyboard just positively trounces it! The IBM keyboard just beats in on sheer ' I want to write a novel on this damn keyboard' feeling.

Where as on the Apple aluminum keyboard, it just squeaks in a tiny voice, " I wanna twitter".
