@tuomas_h @512pixels frankly, I prefer the former.
@octothorpe @tuomas_h @512pixels As do I. It’s ‘easier’ to make better hardware than it is to make better software, especially when you start going down a certain path and forget what made software good in the first place, and your obsession shifts from product to revenue.
@morrick @tuomas_h @512pixels Faster is an inevitability. A good UX is hard work in constant need of gardening.
