Talking Buy Thursby

Hey, Apple,

Here's my two cents on how to immediately improve OS X: Acquire DAVE from Thursby Software. Or, just buy the company. Seeing that you're still not able to browse a Windows network without 3rd-party software, acquire the software and integrate it into the OS. Network browsing would speed the adoption of Macs and OS X in lots of businesses where Windows networks are in place but users are clamoring for Macs.

There's a chance to make serious inroads here. Don't blow it.

Yours,
techmeister

I'm guessing Apple will just build a GUI ontop of Samba in 10.2. We've got the core Samba files already with 10.1, we just need a GUI in the finder that takes advantage of it.

If they do it this way, it'll be free. No need to buy up any companies :-)
