Apple have the following purposes behind making apps themselves, in the following order: 1. Apple is a hardware company, therefore their reason to make software is to persuade potential buyers & switchers to buy macs. Another simple textedito…

Sound like reasonable reasons I agree with the genius of supporting stuff through frameworks. A stand-alone application is more of what I wish for, especially in the case of the Word processor, as the implementation in the not yet released …

Quote: Writing an office suite from scratch is a huge job, which is why we are seeing it done peice-meal, with Keynote first. . That sound reasonable. Not being a programmer myself, I can't tell which open source alternative is better to star…

I think you're right on the mark there, Amorph. The only real difference between a DTP app and a word processor, in essence, is the ruled page vs. the empty page. DTP uses text blocks, and Cocoa's text objects work just like a word processor in th…

Concerning the above remarks about some superpowers intervention being the only way to solve the israel/palestine conflict: And what superpower would that realistically be? There is only one left you know, and its hardly going to intervene at thi…

"to·ken n 1. something that represents, expresses, or is a symbol of something else" I guess I am that regular kind of guy that wants to stay a part of the anonymous mass and therefore pictures himself as a typical example of the general middle …

I have been to China for a couple of months and I tell you - the situation is really bad there- I was horrified to watch public executions and humiliations (the crowd spitting on the prisoners, etc...) in television and on marketsquares, all under t…

"This is unrelated but you guys in europe (well the EU) have until July 2003 to get things taxless over the net." Yes Outsider, it is funny, this whole international protectionism/free-trade discussion. On another string, in the EU we have to eat…

The second point about smallness making states stick together against others is perhaps correct. In relation to the EU, yes, theres is hardly any perceived danger from other external powers. EU is a giant economic and military zone. The "yellow dan…

Arakageeta: Thanks for including the 'n' ;-) We have in the EU three 'houses': In (growing) order of power 1. the EU parliament, with a number of elected national representatives based on population size. 2. The EU commision, consisting of pe…

The original question in this thread was - as I understood it - if there was greater benefits than "red tape" bureaucracy in the EU. I think this question is very difficult to answer, being that there are so many aspects of being in a union like th…

in reply to: "I don't know enough about the people in your political parties to know if they are like the nazis or not. Consider this though. If you want to hold on to your political power and fear someone from the "right" why not go ahead and labe…

What makes me really sad about the comments about growing up in homogenic sorroundings in the middle of the USA, is how things are developing here in Denmark and other european countries like Italy and Austria.. Being relatively "close" to people sp…

Its absurd to imagine an actual war between _any_ of the current EU countries. All of these countries are members of NATO or are associated 'neutral' states like (peaceful) Sweden. Besides, why attack the market that gives you bread on the table: th…

"I'd like to see Apple sell the rights and code to another company or opensource OS9.x so that somebody else can keep it going." THAT is highly unlikely .. imagine some 13 year old kid hacking the code to give it protected, dynamic memory, symmet…

"I'd be surprised if we see 9.5." Well, I have been surprised by Apple before But I buy your argument to some degree.. It would be most sensible if further improvements/ additions was made in the parts of the OS that had to do with classic/X …

Its should be possible with a combination of this motherboard, a linux installation and mac-on-linux. Mac-on-linux is now cabable of booting into MacOS X and state explicitly on their web that they support these motherboards. See:

I will add to that wish. I hope to leave 9 for X in the near future, but my Cable provider 'locks' the Internet connection to a specific MAC hardware address, making it impossible to use to different computers on the same connection. This is…
