As much as I dislike Apple, the SDK looks cool
Watching the aftermath of the Apple event today, I couldn’t help but feel like my psyche is pulling me in several different directions.
Apple
Does Windows have a viable future?
Microsoft have enjoyed a long stretch as dominant market-share holder in the desktop market; but now they face stiff competition from two sides: OSX and Linux. Can they maintain their strong position?
Apple needs to respect its users
They warned you but Apple decided to follow through and give those iPhone enthusiasts exactly what they wanted: shiny, bricked iPhones. Well done Apple. Way to meet the needs of your customers.
The Abandon-Digg weekend is nigh
On June 29th 2007 we are going to witness an explosion of blog entries, digg posts and comments because the heralded iPhone is finally going on sale. Question is, will you brave the chaos or hide from it?
Has Apple tripped up with Safari?
Apple has recently launched their flagship browser to Windows. Any good? Any point? Despite animosity for most things Apple, I’m excited to get my hands on the Apple browser… But for how long?
Apple fans why can’t you just be happy?
After Apple introduces DRM-free tracks into iTunes people are getting in a hissy after they found out their personal information is injected into bought tracks
Linux is the only winner in the PC vs Mac war
As Microsoft and Apple duke it out, consumers are starting to realise there’s more than Windows
The Infinite Apple Monkey Theory
Reading some of the tripe that splats out of the Apple section of Digg, I got thinking that somebody (unknown) is testing out the Infinite Monkey Theory.
Microsoft dream. Apple do.
I’m not usually pro-Apple on this site but having seen both the “keynotes” from the big camps, and having read an internal Microsoft email from MS Exec Jim Allchin [PDF], I’ve got to say that I’m starting to see his way.
Has Digg gone nuts for Apple?
It’s the day after the big event. One press release known as a KeyNote, where the big man at Apple, Steve Jobs gave a talk about the up and coming things from Apple.
France to apple: “No DRM”
It’s a common view that the EU and all its member states hate everything to do with software patents when it comes to bit US companies. MS has been hit in the past with millions of dollars of fines and forced to release new SKUs of Windows XP to conform with EU anti-trust rulings but now France is taking on Apple.
