Lloyd Parsons
While it is possible that you find it hard to believe, most people make choices about things they use because of how they look as well as how they work.

So here in this thread I get my credibility challenged suddenly because this isn't praising Apple. And my selection is challenged because my choice isn't Apple.

But the reality is that I didn't change, Apple decided to. And in a direction I don't like. Since I can switch with no issues and no out of pocket expenses other than some trivial things, why stay with a product line that is going in the wrong direction? And the overall way you interact with the devices is close enough to equal that it isn't all that big a deal to change either.

Still got all my email and my web browser and my usenet client and my music engraving software. And all easier for me to read now without uglying up the screen.

Hey look, everyone. Lloyd decided to change. It is something he thought about for a while, and he made an informed decision.

You may not agree with his decision, but he made it nevertheless.

AFAIAC, we should leave him alone and let him live with, and hopefully enjoy his decision. He isn't like Nashton, who now comes back to insult everyone here and say everything he has is better than anything any of us own.

He is doing this gracefully, and he has the right not to be insulted because some disagree with his decision.
