>You didn't use mac during the notarization system outage?

No, I didn't even know it was thing until I read about it here. However, I don't use a lot of apps from the AppStore, so I dont' know if that was a contributing factor. I'm also not one to close and launch apps regularly. Terminal, Browser, TextMate are open 100% of the time. I usually have Photoshop and/or Illustrator open in the background as well. Don't be a quitter, you don't have to be a starter.

>And don't get me started on the completly stupid difference between ctrl+c and cmd+c. One (the standard for everything except macos) is used in terminal and the other in every other app.

The Mac has had the Cmd key sincd the very first days of Apple. In fact, it was originally two separate keys: open-apple, closed-apple. It was around well before Linux was a glint in Linus' eye.



> However, I don't use a lot of apps from the AppStore

I don't have any from AppStore, besides those that are factory installed and as I wrote previously, after resume from suspend my keyboard and mouse werent' working I was thinking that this macbook just died (and it was only 1 week old).

Thank god I found out that it needed only simple block of notarization server to make this stupid "security" stop usability.

BTW. You could try to see what happens when you are far from WiFi (with poor connectivity) and try to wakup laptop from sleep - the same, keyboard and touchpad don't respond for 1-2 minutes.
