They did a better job with typography in particular. It was a very pleasing to the eye design. Just needed someone at the helm who wasn't a buffoon going on about "A 600.00 phone? Without a keyboard? guffaw".

@kdfrawg I simply dislike smug superiority coming from people who can't do a simple web form.

My that was cathartic

Everytime I hear Jony Ive in the background of an artsy fartsy video going on about form and function, I think, "Your author interface was coded by someone with a head injury"

You cannot claim to be "all that" when your high-end, professional workstation looks like a midget's trash can.

Please restrict your design brainfarts to mice like you did in the old days

Now to recapture my earlier, calm mood after having to go through a completely new submission process for a store cover art and description change….because you can't do that from the web interface…because they are idiots.

There's a reason Amazon is kicking the iTunes bookstore's butt.

Thing I would wish on my worst enemies: Deal with the iTunes Book Store.

Pausing idle chit-chat to address a OMGEMERGENCY.

Cover art must be changed on Apple…Like NOW!

..Deep breath..I need to accept that we will never see eye to eye on what constitutes a emergency

@kdfrawg Marriage has largely reduced me to prop status socially.
