[HM] Re: HELP: OSX File Format Fiasco

[Bob K]

A) It does not appear to be an OS X bug to me.

B) Have never had security or transfer problems in OS X since I started
to use X in its beta stages, though, the admittedly, the pre-v10.1.5 
days
were bumpy.

C) There are APPLICATIONS which, if released buggy, act strangely in
any and every OS environment, no matter how stable the OS.

D) Why don't you hold off your unwarranted attacks on OS X until
it's shown that the problem was with IT, and not with either the 
application
or the user?  Then you can blow horn real loud, but hopefully, not in 
this
discussion group.

E) I apologize to all others for sending out this message, but I am fed 
up
with useless, content-free messages, like the two below.  It is hard to 
keep
up with the high volume of messages in this group, so let's try to keep 
the
reading of all of them to be a worthwhile learning experience!!!
