"Because Apple had rewritten the Finder using Carbon in order to prove to third party developers that Mac OS X could run their existing classic applications with minimal work" Oh yeah right. You have a source you can cite for that incredible mout…

"Windows 95/98/Me promised to deliver preemptive multitasking, but the instability of the underlying system similarly meant that a crashing application would frequently take down the entire Windows session with an "illegal operation" error." It's…

It would be so great - SO GREAT - if writers stuck to the truth and cited references relating historic fact. As things stand this article is not swaying enough from the truth to incur wrath but just enough from it to be really and truly annoying.

1. "Suggested" has one 't'. 2. A "handful of bugs"? You really believe your own dog food, do you?

I can't wait to see the real Leopard and dump this beta but I doubt they're ready. You can't just say "we'll release in October" and then be ready no matter what. 10.5.1 must loom already. OTOH I'd like to see someone assemble a list of annoying …

What happened to your NDA? Or did Fox instruct you to write this?

Cool! Today in the mountains, tomorrow the world! In related news computer manufacturer Hewlett-Packard now report they have 23,001 outlets in the US alone - plus they're not bound to a specific OS. "Sales are GREAT!" say HP representatives. An Appl…

Ah. iSales! Yes they helped this erstwhile computer and software corporation when their rigid tactics didn't allow them to sell their award winning OS across the board; but sooner or later the iFads will be no more and then iApple will be back in i1…

Gateway: suckiest OEM in the world. Take away Windows and you have an uninspired version of the new iMac which in turn is only a somewhat inspired copy of ugly Windows PCs - of course with the system in the screen but still and all. You think Apple …

Their latest betas already did this BTW. They're doing the same thing Microsoft did: they're moving out of reach of their core consumers. They make a system that too many people can't upgrade to because of hardware requirements. And these hardware r…

This is terrible news. Orange France are a horrendously mismanaged company with at present insurmountable infrastructure issues. No one there who knows anything uses them. They're close to the equivalent of AOL today in terms of quality of service.

I hope every wannabe corporate executive watches this case closely. Nancy was with Jobs for something like twenty years. She has integrity coming out her pores. She's not accused of stealing for herself - she's accused of stealing for her boss Steve…

If this is an RC then they must all be working 34 hours per day 17 days per week because the bug reports still flooding their inboxes show no sign of abating. If this is an RC then I am definitely not upgrading until at least 10.5.4. I'll let the…

Ah. Elephants can remember when fanboys used to deride people with computers with Intel processors. Fanboys can't. Kool-Aid has been medically proven to induce "benign amnesia".
