Dear BBC: We don’t want your set top box. We want your content where we want it, not where you want it. - http://www.macgasm.net/2009...
When are these companies going to learn that we want to access their content on a multitude of platforms, and not just some proprietary box. Blows my mind that in 2009 we're still dealing with this crap. - Joshua Schnell
Or, the forbidden fruit. ;) - Joshua Schnell
It’s time to abolish free apps on the AppStore - http://www.macgasm.net/2009...
Don't forget about in-app purchases feature, which was recently introduced for free apps. Some of the apps (namely, Eliminate) made a fortune off in-app purchases, while remaining free. - Pavlo Zahozhenko

Am I the only person in the world who maximizes the icon size on the desktop? - http://www.macgasm.net/2009...
It really unlocks some powerful tools. The ability to see what the file is clearly, and the ability to preview video is a big plus for me. - Joshua Schnell
Like Charlotte I keep only one vertical line of desktop icons on the right side. Large enough so that the bottom-most icon is actually at the bottom (usually ~90 for me). And I only keep drive icons + aliases to my Upload & Download directories on my desktop. - rønin

I use Windows daily, almost, and I’m a Mac user. - http://www.macgasm.net/2009...
Apple touted the first intel Macs as a machine that was best of the three worlds, it wasn’t because they had the best operating system (which I’d argue they do), but it was because the machines ran OS X, Linux/Unix, and Windows. All three, on one device. Heck, if you really want to get down to the nuts and bolts of it all, Apple plugged Windows in an attempt to get traditional beige box users to check out Apple’s products. Why couldn’t Microsoft do the same thing? That picture from the Cult of Mac could be the perfect marketing tool for Microsoft. “5 out of 7 Journalists are using a Mac, but how many of them are also running Windows 7 on their Machine?” I’d be willing to bet that a large majority of them have a virtual machine with Windows running on their laptops. - Joshua Schnell
that's just it tho, since Apple moved from PPC to intel machines, MS automatically supported them. Tho NT is built on the ability to run on different architectures - HAL (or Hardware Abstraction Layer) was designed for this very purpose and is how NT was capable of running on alpha based processors (the RISC CPU from Compaq) and on the Itanium (the totally 64bit chip from intel, which struggled because of it being expensive and not providing the performance unless you specifically build your software for it). MS didn't need to do anything really... Apple did it for them by switching to off the shelf Intel hardware. - alphaxion
tho MS market driods have been very poor in pointing any of this out. Sometimes I think I'd make a fortune if I applied to work for the MS marketing team ;) - alphaxion
alphaxion, maybe we should storm Redmond together. ;) - Joshua Schnell

Ads in our OS? What Apple’s interest in AdMob means for the rest of us. - http://www.macgasm.net/2009...
Do NOT want. - Roberto Bonini
It may be on the horizon, but I think I'd rather pay the 30-50 dollars for an OS than let a huge corporation datamine my content to find appropriate keywords (if it turns out to be anything like Google's ad model) so they can feed me "relevant" ads. - Joshua Schnell
Do you guys think they'll implement either system specifically, or try for both at the same time? - Joshua Schnell
