Looks like a programmers dream. I gave up with that style of writing in early 2000. My experience was minimal at best. I mostly made cheesy little programs in Visual Basic, tried to teach myself C and then gave up about halfway through C for dummies.
Nowadays I write with words instead of syntax...I think I do a better job of that.
I'm the opposite of you Nathan. I played around on the early PowerPC iMacs. Didn't like them. It pretty much drove me up a wall.
I came back for OSX
And after spending 8 hours yesterday trying to install W7 on a PC, I'm glad I did.
