No liquid glass? Weren't crowds surrounding the Apple spaceship demanding it?
As an optics person, I just have to chortle every time I hear that.
If glass has any liquidity after cooling, it's unobservable [0] (Note, it deforms, but that's not liquidity.)
> Window glass at room temperature has a nearly incalculable relaxation time, approaching the age of the universe itself.
More on point, Apple does drive me crazy when it changes things. The level of "How the hell do I do this?" is off scale. That used to be RTFM, when there were manuals and geeks who read them. I just found the color picker in Preview app. Features are like Easter Eggs, when so many are crammed into an app's window.
It feels like every app other than Preview app has a floating font/style menu. To change the font size, color, etc., you have to pull it down repeatedly. .... Oh well .....
I use it to do quick image hacks, rather than fire up GIMP. (did someone change the default behavior of layers in GIMP? I used to just edit stuff, and then had to merge down every time, until I (ta-da) found the layers window (in the Windows menu)) Oh well ...
