It's nice to see that Apple is still giving some of its attention to Mac widgets, but it's a feature on life support until Apple relaunches the feature on the developer side. The current Apple site for distributing widgets doesn't allow for develope…

If this patent becomes a product, I have no problem with it as long as it extends the Mac experience, rather than replace the Mac/Mac OS X. The iOS is a great OS for touch applications, but it's certainly not a replacement for a full, general purpos…

Tis only a matter of time. . .

Programmer, do you think there's any possibility at all Apple will change course and commit the Mac to being an open architecture platform that will use processors best suited to the respective product lines, whether they be from Intel, IBM, AMD or …
