Looks like s*** to me. But I gave it a go. After all its those "i'll give it a go" moments that make a difference ey?

After 3 hours I started to realise, damn! Its beyond me why I have just rammed a huge toolbar at the top of my desktop, spanning the whole width of the ****ing screen. My desktop was a virgin no more. Raped i tell you, and by the worst kind...the AOL kind.

It was just there, big, fat and savage, just like the hairy quivering mole my grandma had above her lip. I'd cringe at the thought of it even now.

Go get yourself a MAC, use it for over 8 years, bond with the usability, appreciate WHY the MAC is minimalistic and designed to be clutter free. Then come here and review.

Don't hate the reviewer, hate the review.

Why would someone punish OSX this way. Is this some sort of sick joke? who would use this? There are no useful features that cant already easily be done and yea...i'm not even gonna bother explaining how much this sucks.
--------------------------------------------------Please explain why. I'd love to hear your excuse. But then again, you probably don't really have one.

OMG I've never encountered a bigger pest in my whole life. Seriously you've built up a pretty bad rep, I aint gona crack down on you like i know a few others have done concerning your statements around beta news, but do you seriously go round all the reviews reviewing the reviewers? How about I do a review of your review on a reviewer?
-------------------------------------------
You're really quite funny and I thank you for the compliment. Do what you say you're going to do and then move on.
By the way, AOL for Desktop is not likely to go away for either platform any time soon so get used to it being here.
