the words 'arrogant' and 'boneheads' comes to mind ...
hello, ma!
yeah, sorry i was wrong.
no, to watch the videos of your only son in japan on japanese tee vee, you have to buy a windows machine, or try someone's linux, if you can find anyone. oh, and i can't change the language in itunes store (only location) and the japanese change all the titles so i can't find that movie you mentioned.
no, sorry, there is nothing apple computer wants do about it. yes, they know about it, but they don't care about customers anymore. no, no, that was back in the 80's and 90's when they were struggling. they're king of the hill now, thanks in part to loyalists like me, so they don't have to care anymore.
yeah, used to enjoy running my mac the way i wanted, cutting edge stuff, assigning ram, cache work space, tossing unused weight from aps, yeah fun. today's apple cuts services i use, charges for former free aps, and now, with no cd/dvd optical drive on imac, insists i put my entire life on their cloud. yeah, the one they share with the nsa.
since the videos run on linux too, i'm seriously thinking of switching over soon. have to brush up on terminal code for tweaks, but the GUIs look great and the software is free.
I can help you when i get back home, ma.
cheers,
