Yet another gem from Gizmodo, where common sense is not required. It is Adam Frucci who must be desperate for page-views on his contributions. Spare yourself from reading the abomination that is his so-called article. A not-so-well-thought-out excerpt:
“Every single Mac app costs money. Where’s the freeware on Macs? On the PC, I used Texter to create macros for things I type a lot, which is free. On the Mac, there’s TextExpander, and it’s $30. There are loads of free FTP clients for the PC. On Mac, you use Transmit, and it’s $30. Tweetie is a nice enough Twitter client, but it sure isn’t $15 worth of nice. TextMate is a great, robust text editor, but no text editor is worth $54.”
Seriously? Every single Mac app costs money?
I guess Adam Frucci is the authority of computing world. He knows for sure that every single Mac app costs money. There are no freeware.
- I wonder what Filezilla is. It is an open source FTP client that is available for Linux, Mac and Windows. It is also free.
- There’s Cyberduck. “Cyberduck is an open source FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, Mosso Cloud Files and Amazon S3 browser for the Mac.” It is also free.
- There are other free Mac OS X FTP clients.
Evaluating the statement about the absence of freeware on Mac OS platform, we hereby award Adam Frucci as Moron of The Week.
Way to go for perpetuating the idiotic Mac vs. Windows argument, Mr. Adam Frucci. Please stop using computer now.
If you want to read his idiotic “article” just search for “Adam Frucci Mac Freeware” using your favorite search engine (Google).
