    Did Microsoft pay Adobe against Apple?

    How can you bitch about the iPod?

    If Apple did send the letter to those magzines and drive our expectations this high, yes, we will quietly ignore it. There is absolutely no "break through" in this product. It's stylish looking doesn't justify it's ridiculously high price. I like Apple and I have higher expectation for it.

    DAVE for FREE!

    Read apple's site carefully. a smb client will be integrated into Finder. in other word, files shared by windows machines can be accessed right in Finder. one thing they didn't mention is whether OS X can use printers shared by Windows machines. actually those things are not what made me...
