So the mini tells me there is a 100MB update. Being Apple it does not use the word ‘Security’ (Apple? Insecure? Good god no. They’ll be pretending that the Mac was not cracked first recently. Or coming up some other excise) And being Apple it downloaded the whole lot without telling me, without asking me, without any notice whatsoever. That is WRONG. You ask first, you tell me first, you do what I want. You might say the software is licensed but the hardware it’s going into is most certainly not. And I watched as the machine shut down to restart at 16:25. It is now 16:30 and it just came back up. 5 minutes for a reboot? WTF? My XP could reboot in around 45 seconds on a cold day. And before someone says I must have a bazillion login items I have 2 - teleport and Skype. It’s not the programs that are sluggish, it’s the OS.
