Apple computer makes some of the most wretched software ever. iTunes and the iPhone “3.whatever” software are the ones driving me up the fucking wall right now. Take a look at this screenshot for offending item #1:
- The upper right hand is lit up, but doesn’t work.
In this picture, my mouse is hovering over the “close” button in the top right. It’s not in the dead center of the “x”, but it lights up the button so that you know that when you click, it will close the window. Guess what – it doesn’t close. This horrible false positive feedback is laughable for a company that supposedly knows how to do interface design right. What they know how to do right is piss me the fuck off.
That’s not the worst though. The worst part about the close button is that it doesn’t extend all the way to the right. In fact, the top right of the screen in the picture isn’t even covered by the close button. So, if I have another program maximized behind iTunes, and I don’t remember to be Apple’s bitch and instead move my mouse to the top right hand corner of the screen like I can in any other windows application, I close the application behind iTunes. lololololol the joke’s on me because I didn’t fellate Apple’s self importance by adjusting my mouse out of an infinte-depth position. GOOD DESIGN APPLE.
And finally, I just want to bitch about the fact that the newest version of the iPhone software makes my phone run much slower than the prior version. Oh, and the fact that sometimes now my iPhone’s screen will black out. It was really fuckin fun when I got a call and couldn’t answer it because the screen was black. Real good job on your new slow ass bug ridden software, Apple. Burn in hell.
