Wow. Someone on this newsgroup (in this case, Chris) actually understands.

The ignorant iKooks like Alan Baker & nospam can't comprehend that they
incessantly claim Apple gives long-term hotfix support and yet all the
iKooks are completely ignorant that full support is only on _one_ release!

At least Chris understood that concept. Kudos to Chris.

For those who comprehend what it means to support an operating system...
*Apple OS support is the _shortest_ in the industry*

Today is the first day of the rest of your lossage.
