I think I've shared this before. Macs have their uses, I think your needs have just exceeded the parameters they are designed for, that's all.

But, but, but...
The purpose of RTF and RTFD was to unify text documents across applications.
Even this version of Apple's own TextEdit can not be opened by "Pages 5+"

So, I disagree about my exceeding the design parameters.
It is what I've been calling the "smoke-stacking" by these companies (Google, FB, MS, etc)
to create their own customer base for advertising and marketing purposes.

Apple seems to be going down a road away from computers towards phones and pads.
Maybe one unintended consequence will be to drive MacAddicts over to MicroSoft... {/shudder}
