Re: Why Apple should let HP build its workstations

[Frank Gothmann] "Metro on a Desktop machine is stupid and I'd rather not have it but it's one click on a tile and I am on the windows desktop as it used to be."

But with no Start Menu, you are slammed right back into Metro to do anything, though I suppose you can just saturate your task bar with the software you use most of the time and try to avoid the Start Screen.

[Frank Gothmann] "Avid/Adobe on Linux - unfortunately I can't see that happening. Too much that would need to be tweaked to bring functionality on par with the other OSes, Apple would have to port Quicktime to Linux (and Quicktime is dead) etc. etc."

Do you mean tweaking of Linux or tweaking of the apps? Neither Adobe nor Avid rely on QuickTime. They both have their own playback engines. Pro Res would be out though.

Best,
