You probably should never use a Mac then.

I’m pretty positive on mac OS, as an OS it’s technically quite good, but their preferences app has always been atrocious almost entirely for this reason, I want to have two preferences windows open to different pages please…

I hear you. I have always been a power user so I was pretty shocked when you could not open two file managers at once in OSX.

The thing about Apple devices is they work great, as long as you do it they way they want.

You can have multiple finder windows in OSX, thats perfectly normal, but you cant have the network settings open next to the printer settings.

Got reminded yesterday when trying to find a way to clear and apps cached information.

Windows was a simple path, but osx needed 5 steps to find where osx decided to put it.

I honestly don’t understand why macs are so popular in IT. Flexibility and configurability are not the words that can be used to describe their system.
