Title: The Nasty
Post by: xsphat on Tue, 23 October 2007, 14:21:33
this is the way iMav refered to Windows in a thread once a while back, and I have to admit, that is what I call Windows now. I am in Windows to play some games to get rid of post exam anxiety, and I just thought of this, and felt it proper to comment. I shall now slay pixels - the only thing I use XP for.

Have a nice day, and please post your hateful names for the worst OS to ever hit a Mac.

One thing that is nice about the nasty (http://www.microsoft.com/windows) is that it helps keep us IT security types employed.

No game is worth defiling your MacBook like that...you should be ashamed of yourself!  ;)

That may be so, about me defiling my shiny Apple 'book, but sometimes in life, allI need is a good and heavy, solid bloodletting, and Windows has more options than Mac (for now).

I thought I'd need it for school, but as it turns out, I am smarter than that.

Does Alt F4 quit programs?

I need to learn some of the Nasty's shortcuts.

Alt-F4 closes a program (OS-X equiv of apple-Q).
Ctrl-F4 closes a window/document inside a program.

Thanks, I would like to know XP better, mainly because I feel so dumb for not knowing it at all.

What do the other F keys do? If you have a shortcut-link in mind to send me to, I'd love it.

You da man, ashort.
