I slid those 400 files over USB from iOS to the Windows filesystem Time = 1 minute, 55 seconds If anyone has a *faster* system (my equipment is ancient and it's still faster than anything you can actually *do* and prove you did), let me know. 1 minute 55 seconds from the Windows file system to iOS' DCIM folders: http://www.bild.me/bild.php?file=9185854windows_to_ios.jpg If anyone has a more *universal* system (it works with iOS, Android, Windows, and Linux file systems, no matter who owns them and no matter the "ID") system, let me know. If someone has a more *free* system in addition (there is zero software added to the native operating systems), let me know. If someone has a *simpler* system (you just select and slide) let me know. If you can't come up with a faster, freeer, simpler, and more universal system, and yet, if you claim that the method is "obvious", then (a) you're full of ****, and (b) let me know and I'll test your "better" system. HINT: Everyone who said it was "obvious" already proved they can't do it. Meanwhile, it takes two minutes for me to transfer 400 photos, where I can easily transfer scores of Gigabytes of movie files as I did in the OP. From anywhere to anywhere else. Sans a shred of additional software. All this great, but the 90% of the computer users don't care about this. My 2 co-workers and I support around 800 computers in house 200 in the field, Windows and Mac. The users just want to do everything the simplest way, without leaving their browser, Word, or email application, let alone having to restart their computer or run virtual software. We have people who don't understand that a simple restart could easily take care of many of their small problems. I work in the real world and we simply don't have time to run around and transfer images and files for people. We teach them the skills they need to use their computers in the environment they work in. What they use or do at home is not our concern. I am glad you have this hobby of pointing out the shortcomings of people using Apple products, but I see people everyday that are steadfast in their love and advocacy of the Windows and Android utilizing devices. I figure whatever works for them, meets their needs, and they are comfortable using is great for me and my coworkers in IT. Earlier, in another thread, you asked me what I had to contribute and to try to prove you wrong. First, whatever I said would have been shot down (as you will probably do with this post). Second, I beleive you are out to prove everyone else wrong and you want to pound your own chest to prove intelligence, experience, and knowledge. We each contribute to society what we can. Some folks want to just do their job as best they can and others want to be King of the Hill. I have received some good tips and knowledge on USENET that I can use in life and my job. I am confident I will get more in the future. I wish you the best in your quest to belittle many here and Mac users in general. One last thing, which claw hammer is the best, curved claw or straight claw? My answer, what you have and what job you are using it for. I have both and use them on a regular basis. YK |
