This quite simply is the best fucking way to reply to what most of most exchanges between artist, programmers, designers, editors, directors, creative types i know in Mexico City are like.

Apple alienates yet another long time Mac/iPhone... →

This is a fairly niche problem. But if it helps anyone then i will have done my good deed.

Most people assume that the only reason to jailbreak an iphone is to install cracked apps when in fact there are a slew of very useful, legitimate apps and hacks that make the device that much more useful.
