Avie Tevanian was not interested in games when he was with the company and running the software side. I don't know if that culture has changed at all. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple has written off games as something best handled by specialized ha…

I find it odd that ABC and CBS are more open-minded about distribution than NBC, which remains the ratings cellar.

My workflow on OS X is neutral to drawers. I don't think I'd miss them, even if they are a more organic window element. I imagine Apple will be very cautious about releasing any single tool with a Photoshop-like toolset. We all remember the hissy…

If I had to choose between 3G and GPS, I'd pick the latter. As cool as the Google Maps app is, it's ho-hum without GPS. It's like, here's this integrated tool that shows you where things are in a highly discernible format, but without a frame of ref…

Any takers on how long Rubenstein and Anderson will stick around? How much badgering are they going to get from the top Palm guys? For that matter, any takers on when Palm somehow folds to Microsoft as Sun just did?

Does iToner still work?

Press release, schmress release. I'm thrilled that Apple cut off NBC swifty. Apple wants to let NBC know exactly what the impact of pulling out of iTunes will be as soon as their Must See 2007 season begins. Good for them.

This further asserts Apple's standing in the market. Content holders and competitors are coming at them from all sides. I think NBC should try to go it alone. If hulu succeeds, then Apple might have to adjust. If not, Apple will have some hand ag…

Maybe Gateway didn't want what was left of their computers being chock full of lead. You know, because the Chinese put lead in everything. Zing!

They have a strong brand -- cow spots on their shipping boxes and empty spaces in strip malls where you can just make out the words "Gateway Country" on the sunbleached bricks above. How much stronger can you get?

Burgled. Burgled!!!!

What exactly has been addressed with VPN and L2TP? I've had difficulty getting my iMac behind a router (sadly not an Airport) to talk to my company's OpenSWAN software VPN solution. I've even had discussions with the solution's author in the Netherl…

Bring on the competition. Competition is a good thing. It's only logical that everyone else wants a piece of Apple's pie. (Whoa. Completely unintended pun.) Apple has the upper hand with stronger branding and a more integrated experience. For all…

Whatever happens, I hope it's retroactive. We just bought a .Mac account last friggin' week!

The 3D Dock was a "top secret feature?" Really? Spaces I can see, but the new Dock? Really?
