I am by nature fairly impatient. I am not prone to sitting around or waiting for things to happen. I like to move quickly and I sometimes forget that there are good reasons that the entire world does not move at the speed that I would like it to move at.
A great example of this is the blog of Dave Nanian, the maker of SuperDuper my very favorite Mac backup program. SuperDuper is still not Leopard compatible.
Now I have been using Leopard for a couple of months and was starting to become impatient with how long it was taking for SuperDuper to be updated. I love SuperDuper and was really growing tired of waiting for it to get bumped up to being Leopard compatible . I mean it is just a backup app, how long could it really take? (Forgive me for thinking this!!)
Well if you take a look at Dave's blog of his and his team's progress, it is taking a while... and for good reason. Really, read his blog, it helped me take a big super-sized dose of patience.
Sometimes I forget that behind the smooth interface and reliable performance of my favorite apps, there are people hard at work trying to make them better. And after reading Dave's progress with SuperDuper and Leopard, it details all the work they have done in fixing some major hiccups due to the new OS, apparently many of which were Time Machine based.
I appreciate companies like ShirtPocket Software (Dave and the other creators of SuperDuper) who take the time to make everything work right together... Time Machine and SuperDuper so that when I install it and use it, it will work great and not mess up the other software on my Mac...
Even when it doesn't happen on MY schedule.
Take your time Dave, I can wait.
