    Talk to important people?

    It is ridiculous to expect because it doesn't happen and the poster in questions seems to think since Apple is so cool, that they should. If companies apologizing for defective products was common practice the tune would change, I assure you. I don't feel like your pub analogy holds water...

    Microsoft Names Upcoming OS

    Actually vista is sort of a play on words if you think about their os name, Windows. window -> view -> vista I can see it.

    widget beef/suggestion

    I have a major pet peeve with the widgets and dashboard in general. The widgets eat memory like it's nobody's business. Add that to the fact that I tend to do things that require a lot of memory and widgets become a burden on my system in a hurry. Now, please, don't recommend I get more...

    Talk to important people?

    This has nothing to do with apple, actually. I'm saying it's completely ridiculous to expect a company, any company, to apologize when a product is defective. These things happen. You even mentioned in one of your posts that QC is another issue, so I'm not touching that. It sounds to me...

    And to follow that, if you sold me software you knew didn't work, we'd just be going to court or you'd be giving my money back. The apology would go where the sun doesn't shine.

    So you want an apology because what they sold you was broken. They fixed it under warranty, but you need that apology. Interesting. If I take back a broken dvd player to Wal-mart, I don't get an apology from the the clerk behind the counter, nor do I expect one. Maybe that is just how I...

    is it possible to program C on mac?

    an editor and the command line. XCode can be a bit overwehlming for class projects.

    Arstechnica on the Big Switch

    I think the notion that apple will focus the majority of its resources on iPod development & research is a bit misleading. It gives the impression that the computer side of things is going away. I may be wrong here, but it seems that the mp3 player market isn't as exciting as it was a year...

    As soon as someone writes a spotlight plugin, I'll give it a more serious look.

    Podcasting - who cares?

    No question about cost. Someone will start charging as they become more popular. My major beef is that there doesn't seem to be any of any great interest to me. Oh well. Time will give me more choices I suppose. Yes, wooby-jooby. Like mumbo-jumbo only with more funk.

    Sleep (and Wake) Hooks

    Is it possible to write a hook for Tiger to execute some mumbo jumbo when it goes to sleep and when it wakes up again? Basically, I have vpn issues when I shut the lid on my powerbook and I'd like to automate some applescripts I have. Any help would be appreciated.

    Podcasting - who cares?

    I'm a bit befuddled by the podcasting inclusion in iTunes/iPod. I check out the itms and wasn't impressed by anything available either. So what is the big deal here? It seems more like radio shows you can download. Am I wrong? I don't know. I just feel like it is a whole lot of...

    No way to do that, although it sounds like a good opportunity for a widget.
