I think the Dock, Desktop, Expose, and Dashboards are overlapping to the point of being redundant. I think a unifying concept of windows, apps, and files "launcher" could streamline all these. They are all just containers. Expose-containe…

I'm happy to see portage on OS X. I installed Gentoo on my iBook a while back to check out Linux and it was the best of the PPC distributions, for learning how Linux worked at least. But I don't get the "Apple we have a problem" thing. It's a…

I'm all for minimalism but really, how is this different form their last case? It seems like the same thing only black. Plus just look at the back. The people who design the back off the case are the people who I admire. Sony isn't getting any s…

I don't think there is anything you can do about iPhoto (really all you have to do is hit enter anyway). But for the Finder there is possibly a hidden preference for that, though I sort of doubt it. Someone with some time an a strings log should c…

I looked at a Zire 72 today and it seemed pretty cool but input is still the limiting factor on mass adoption. To support the input, editing, and expandibility, they become complicated and expensive. It's kind of off topic but imagine a future i…

I don't know if this is what you mean by type ahead address, but i wish Safari would search for what the bookmark is named rather than just its address. Example: Other World Computing has an address of eshop.macsales.com, but I can never remember …

If that's right, that sucks. Is it because both ports are on one controller?

Are they using it [IGN] as a content creation system? Like a brute force way of doing PHP?

If anything, Apple will have to take Longhorn seriously and invest in some real breakthrough technologies like vector UI's, meta-data driven file system, compositing system handled completely by the GPU etc. I think Apple has proved they are crea…

Oh, it's ten times faster than my internal drive. Yeah, I edit right off of it and it screams. It's pretty quiet too, though you can hear the clicks. I would definitely recommend it over the internal one. You could probably capture to the inte…

I use Firefox for IGN these days. It seems handle it fine. I don't know what it is like on a PC but even with Firefox on the Mac, IGN's pages have a little lag. I'd like to know what the problem is on Safari. I've seen it hangs on one of their …

I have a Lacie Firewire external drive (7200 rpm) and it's butter for DV footage. I'm using it with my 12" Powerbook (rev A) so you should be more than fine. Plus, if you ever fill it up you can just get another one.

Quote: Expect services to be merged with ADD You know something I don't? I haven't heard about any movement on Services. For all I know they could be abandoning them. They would definitely need to become context sensitive, because as they…

After reading Bruce Horn's interview at Macthemes.net (plug), I wish Apple would bring back Apple Data Detectors. It was the slickest way to click on content and get options to send email, add to the address book, go to a web site, bookmark an url …

A couple things: -A real location manager would be cool, but I think it needs a better name. -Open up Menu extras to other developers and have some way to collapse them into a single icon or tab (a la control strip). -Pay more attention to …

I hope they add either a switch to turn shuffle on and off or a couple of customizable buttons where I could do the same thing. I spend a lot of time messing with shuffle settings.
