Quote: Originally posted by midwinter The misplaced adverb is also a split infinitive. Less egregious an error than the comma splice, but an error nonetheless. Not an error at all, just an outdated notion of "proper" style. See here. [/…

Quote: Originally posted by TJM I'm confident the economists and accountants at Apple know what they are doing. Prepare to be branded an apologist. Don't you know that everyone here knows how to run Apple better than Apple?

Could Apple have moved WWDC back to June simply to undercut IDG?

ThinkSecret is about as close to a "reliable" rumors site as we have right now, which may not be saying much. But I did think their pre-MWSF calls smacked of a lot of unnecessary attitude, all that stuff about Jobs putting a lot of positive spin on …

It's a pretty machine. I'd give in if I were you. (Or if I were me with more money.)

A great show. Being perenially cash-strapped, I like getting new toys to play with that aren't very expensive. And tonight I'll have new iApps to play with, plus what appears to be a kickass new browser. And when the glow wears off of those, I can r…

I'm not up on my Apple history as I should be, but wasn't the whole "slash margins and compete on price" caper tried at some point in the days before Jobs' return? I seem to remember Apple has a very good reason for not trying to lowball its way int…

Yeah, you pretty much described Bill Gates' wet dream there.

That article pointed out an issue that should be troubling Apple management: a lot of Apple's most important customers are running very tight workflows on their Mac systems, and they can't even think of migrating until every piece of software they r…

And I thought I was cynical. Do you all have such a heinously low opinion of the public to think that a mere number ending in "Ghz" would sway a consumer from the iMac to that POS? Forget all the reflexive defensiveness a lá "Of course I know the…

I'm a copywriter, and would be willing and able to copyedit a couple of articles a week. I can't volunteer to write though as I have a few other commitments.
