infernal machines posted:requiring airprint for 100% print compatibility and zero-config printing isn't really making things hard for anyone but poo poo-tier printer manufacturers while this is true, it is also poo poo easy for apple to just say "sorry vendors, while airprint is great yadda yadda, read pg. 1285 pph 5 section 4 where we say if in conditions we need to.... yea.. we're now providing base drivers for all common make/models of wifi enabled printers.. sorry" it'd be a new line in the settings app under general "Printers" to set up a printer by hand instead of having airprint. woopdiedoo still will prolly be better than msft's version

since they actually license airprint, there is slightly less than any reason for apple to do this. but yeah, it'd be nice

they're in w8 too sure windows hasn't had dos support in 14 years, but we'd better keep the icons in there for legacy purposes

actually, odds are there's some hardcoded resource link in something important that will break if the icon it points to isn't at an exact object location and byte offset in the file

For some reason Microsoft just never sees fit to update all of the icons used by the base OS. Windows 9 will probably have some slightly new visual style to it by the time it comes out so it'll be even more of a mess visually
