Ok let's clear this up guys: Cocoa itself is GCD enabled. You see, Apple introduced API's that were somewhat like GCD called NSOperations. That's the high-level threading tool generally. With 10.6 Apple pulled these API's closer to the core of th…

Okay, First, I can confirm 10.6 the Hard Drive icons are gone by default. Reactivation is simple. I am presuming this is because file management is a task for the Finder app, not for the desktop. Apple is slowly moving to new concepts in SL. I…

Snow Leopard's gamma is 2.2 as standard. It looks just like Leopard after you shift it's gamma manually, but yes, there is a significant difference. I much prefer the look of Snow Leopard overall as there is more "pop" to the colors. Combined wit…

Lilgto64, the issue is more that there are two ways this could go. Either Schmidt does the wrong thing by Apple, by being biased against Apple's success, or they'll join forces and try and collude to take the market. Either way, it's wrong. What if …

One issue I think is central. Some company is selling upgrade / restore DVD's as full OS installations, for the intent purpose of breaking end user licence agreement. If I sell a program to someone, and say "those who have paid can get a $10 u…

While not having a DVD drive is a great space saver, the question in today's technology industry is "Is it practical?" I love my MacBook Air. I love the thinness and efficiency of the design. But what happens if your hard drive gets corrupted? Yo…

Sorry to anyone who was offended. I didn't mean to be condescending.
