Too much detail, text to small.

Both are good, but nowhere near perfect. Possibility is to install Virtualbox for installation of Windows x.x. No idea if it might accommodate a MacOS install as an app under Linux.<br /><br />Nice new Gab avatar -- can provide SVG or CDR file of the outer elements if you want to build in greater detail, as I designed it.Man of the Atomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039232840539102510.post-85259936443482855872017-01-04T15:45:21.238-05:002017-01-04T15:45:21.238-05:00I'll be looking into it too.

For better or for worse, while Linux has gotten "good enough" in a lot of ways - mostly not breaking things anymore often than MS does with updates - thoroughness of getting the UI consistent, nevermind aesthetically pleasant, still lags. I'm comfortable enough with Mint, can get 1Password to work under wine, supposedly, and can with few exceptions do almost anything I need to do in Linux now. <br /><br />THAT said, it would be a pain to migrate everything over, the mail applications suck - though that's a universal for me, but it's still worse - I'd be beholden to google/android for mobile, and I'd still likely have to keep a mac VM and Windows VM around for various odds and ends as my job involves support and I have to be able to test within said environments.LastRedoubthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17099887288125584869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039232840539102510.post-34768692101591539222017-01-04T12:28:00.492-05:002017-01-04T12:28:00.492-05:00I've played around with and tested ElementaryO...I've played around with and tested ElementaryOS and it's pretty decent and certainly pretty to look at, and still my favorite ubuntu-based distro, but the last release was pretty rough. Hopefully, it's improved over the last couple months.jaerichohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08721378819936697447noreply@blogger.com
