  • What secret features? The new OS won't have secret features. Do you understand why they do pre-releases of the OS? If so, then you understand why there aren't secrets. Imagine a release of the new OS X in April which breaks Microsoft Word and A…
  • "I was just wondering when/if Apple would update the nomenclature for file sizes through-out the OS? " If you're going to be that anal about it, then shouldn't you be using "octets" rather than "bytes"? Only the French care about such nonsense.

  • Surely, if it was a canary trap (or, at least, if it was an EFFECTIVE canary trap), they wouldn't have had to go to expensive litigation to find out who leaked it, eh? Am I missing the point here, or what?!

  • There's no market for 'proper' video devices. There are plenty of portable video devices out there already, and they don't sell. For every video device I see being used on the train to work in the morning, there are 200 or more iPods (audio).
  • I don't understand the desire for 'themes'. Windows has dozens, and I only ever see people using two of them. What's the point of Apple spending so much time/money/research into the look of OS X only for people to ruin it?

  • Same old, same old. If you need it now, buy it now. If you don't, wait.

  • There aren't any secret features. The whole point of Beta testing is that features get tested. So you don't suddenly do a release with loads of stuff that wasn't in the test versions. IF (IF IF) there are secret features, then the release o…
  • Oh? If it's worth anything, it's worth backing up. Only data this is worth nothing is not backed up. By definition.

  • Just restore from backup. If you haven't backed it up, then you've already declared it worthless, so it doesn't matter.
  • Why does it matter?
  • "Apple definitely needs a new enclosure with the MacBook Pro for the next revision" What's so wrong with the current one?
  • Truly viral?! It's on bmw.com FFS!
