It goes away! It's gone, it's shut down. 11 00:00:35,900 --> 00:00:38,938 You didn't push any buttons, you didn't close, you didn't even save! It's just gone! 12 00:00:39,216 --> 00:00:41,833 Unless you want to shut down a mac! Oh, that's a whole other story. 13 00:00:42,253 --> 00:00:46,788 I mean you try to close a program, and it locks up! And then you do that funny, what is it, the clover-leaf/period thing? 14 00:00:46,865 --> 00:00:49,510 The unnatural and ultimately useless interrupt key 15 00:00:49,562 --> 00:00:52,577 Then nothing moves! Then you push the power button, and it won't turn off! 16 00:00:53,087 --> 00:00:55,075 You go around and unplug it, and you better hope you're not on a laptop, 17 00:00:55,624 --> 00:00:59,035 cause then you have to find the damn battery and try to pull that out, or the thing will never shut down! 18 00:00:59,414 --> 00:01:02,765 So i put my cd in the cdrom tray, and i'm copying media of that cd 19 00:01:02,903 --> 00:01:05,986 dragging'em on my desktop, dragging'em on my desktop, dragging'em on my desktop 20 00:01:06,301 --> 00:01:08,192 I eject it... and where did my files go?! 21 00:01:08,392 --> 00:01:12,768 It's the only OS i know of where "click and drag" does not mean you actually copy or move anything 22 00:01:13,024 --> 00:01:15,033 No! you're just making shortcuts on your desktop! 23 00:01:15,199 --> 00:01:17,717 So i got my next cd and i slam it into the cdrom tray 24 00:01:18,163 --> 00:01:20,381 And 'lo and behold, it starts playing, all by itself! 25 00:01:20,626 --> 00:01:25,082 I'm looking for a way to turn it off, finally out of desperation, i click-and-drag the cd into the garbage can 26 00:01:25,472 --> 00:01:26,687 The system locks up! 27 00:01:26,891 --> 00:01:30,781 So i go to the clover-leaf/period/spacebar thing, hoping i can stop the program 28 00:01:31,005 --> 00:01:32,259 And i get a little caution window, saying 29 00:01:32,315 --> 00:01:34,981 "Careful, interrupting this program may lock up the system." 30 00:01:35,279 --> 00:01:37,677 I try to click OK, BUT THE SYSTEM IS ALREADY LOCKED UP! 31 00:01:37,792 --> 00:01:41,999 I like the handle here.
