@ParallelsCares Replied as I wanted to express a desire of “please don’t become one of those companies.”

via web in reply to ParallelsCares

@ParallelsCares I always have a strong reaction in general to ducking behind a “that’s not supported” stance for things that should work.

via web in reply to ParallelsCares

@ParallelsCares Oh, ya, you all seem to be trying to figure out issues and resolve them, hope tweet wasn’t seen as a complaint per se.

picked a bad time to update @omnifocus. Had moved off of 1.7.5 once only to go back, finally decided to update again, same root doc problem.

via web

@OReillyMedia Thanks for the update, thinking it may be time to expand / update my Windows reference collection.

via web in reply to OReillyMedia

@ParallelsCares Guess what I’m saying: ducking supporting such things descreases the value of the software.

via web in reply to ParallelsCares

@ParallelsCares I understand beta nature of Win8, but one of the big upsides of @ParallelsMac is the abilty to test new/upcoming releases.
