I never used the original Wordperfect, I was only near people who were using it, but by the time I wanted to do any word processing at all I had an Amiga. And while I still had it, Workbench 2 came out, and brought scalable fonts along with it.
Of all the DTP software of any description, I align myself with PageMaker -> InDesign. I have used a number of packages and still go back to Adobe when I want to do some layout and typesetting. I go back to before they required a sub, though. My experience with it also goes back to Aldus. I've tried Quark, and yuck, they never did get the UI figured out worth half a shit compared to Adobe... or even Aldus.
That goes for anything you can't eat, live in, or fuck.
Pokemon may be a fad, but it's been incredibly durable.
And from this follows: there is a ton of ways one could fuck up performance with a shoddily implemented custom file system for a particular disk image format.
I only know a little bit about filesystems (I haven't dug into any deeply since using fsdb on SCO Unix) but even I know that. I want to know, in what particular way did Apple fuck up?
There Aren't Enough Cables To Meet Growing Electricity Demand [...] The International Energy Agency estimates that 80 million kilometers of grid infrastructure must be built between now and 2040 to meet clean energy targets

They will have to, they cannot stop the industry going to downloads. This is the smartest thing they could do.
It's very interesting that game shops were mostly replaced by video game shops which now need to become game shops again.
I read the GP question as how did apple fuck this up in the first place?
You didn't offer me anything and a comment is not a signature, so no and no.
"Honest question"
You have never in slashdot history asked one of those
Ok bot
If you can waive it, it's not a right.
Wordperfect was fine, and I mean the GUI version. It still lived on for a long time (and may be in use still) because it was FAR better for forms and formatting.
The Linux app for Debian just fails silently for me.
Zoom is shit.
That's the opposite situation.
It's almost like elections have consequences, and America has elected that it and its businesses are going to be treated like the plague. Well, even more than that, even visiting the US is dropping, and now with US Marines on city streets in a major US city, well, fuck that banana republic. I will never enter the US again.
I'm always looking for a new idea that will be more productive than its cost. -- David Rockefeller
