ggendel, blame the closed system on jobs. woz was always for open systems and sharing. jobs always was for closed systems and making a buck. look where they both are today. my first home system was a cobbled together z80 running cp/m. but i also had knowledge and training to make it useful to me. people these days don't, computers are just black boxes to surf the web on, play games, chat with friends. heck, look at our cars. i am lucky i can change the oil on my newest vehicles.
in any event, i've lost enough interest in writing my own code to care about coding on my ipad. i just want it to work for me and work well.
