I’m not minimising the importance of technical users. I’m just saying that ugly POST messages aren’t helpful to most people. Hell, I’m technical and I don’t miss them.
I’m not sure about your point that mostly technical users buy MacBooks, since they don’t show POST messages. Doesn’t that suggest I’m right?
May tiny, but tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands is still "significant" in any sense of the word.
> Also, minimising what I’m saying by using diminutive language - “messages makes my computer unpretty” - is lazy.
Like how you're minimising the importance of technical users?
Lets not forget that it is primarily technical users who buy macbooks; developers, designers, etc.
