On one hand, I’m disgusted that someone would mutilate books. On the other hand, it’s just beautiful.

How cute!

I am currently sitting in my first college class.

That is all.

This is a nice little terminal process that tells you what components in your Mac are OpenCL compatible.

This thing is awesome.

This TwistedMac gallery gives you an excellent feel for the evolution of  Mac OS X over the years.

At the time Mac OS X 10.0 was revolutionary and very pretty. Looking back,  it was hideous. Matter of fact, 10.0,10.1,10.2, and 10.3 were all pretty ugly.

Apple can now sell the iPhone to the largest mobile phone market in the world.

Snow Leopard, the next major release of Mac OS X, is now available for purchase.

May I politely point you at the links to the right of this post. If you buy Snow Leopard through that Amazon link, you will make me fabulously wealthy.

I have a life long friend named Sam Lyden. His father oversaw the recent Oklahoma IBA project. That facility was completed in 27 months, a full nine months ahead of schedule.

Why should you care you ask? Well, if you have a tumor in you head and live near Oklahoma, chances are you’ll visit that center. IBA also has two other facilities in the US, and still more in Europe and Asia.

This week the Horny one discusses sales numbers, and the new Apple ads.

Cheater.

Daniel Eran Dilger:

Microsoft’s monopoly lock over the PC hardware business has been threatened by Apple’s growth. The clumsy, years late release of Windows Vista only helped to accelerate buyers’ interest in evaluating Apple’s offerings. Many Windows Enthusiasts now have the idea that a strong release of Windows 7 will turn things around and rob Apple of its newfound growth, returning the PC to the glorious position it enjoyed in the late 90s.

However, Windows 7 won’t help Microsoft win back any significant market share from Apple because copying what worked for selling Macs won’t work for Microsoft. That’s because, as I like to point out, Microsoft is not anything like Apple. Microsoft almost exclusively licenses its Windows software to PC makers, which are then pitted against each other to sell commodity hardware to consumers. Apple sells a unique, integrated product directly to consumers.

Godspeed sir.

This is interesting, but I still call bullshit.

Great video showing the different designs the developers of Convert went through before settling on the one we all know and love.

Out of personal experience I know designing these things is hard work.

This looks amazing. Especially as a child’s teaching tool.

I’m also a typography geek, so take this with a grain of salt.

I love the jam labels personally.

Although it’s officially not meant this way, it’s hard to take this any other way than retaliation.

I can hear Steve Jobs now: “I’ll show those bastards.”

Awesome new encyclopedia for type.

I’ve always loved typography. My friends can vouch for that. But I think this toot from the incomparable Jeffery Zeldman sums up the current atmosphere surrounding typography.

Good luck with that.

I formally believed several of these myths sadly.

Also, this is another very intelligent article from Cracked, and demonstrates a continuing theme of more and more intelligent argument coming from them, and not just dick jokes.

This defines Windows in a nutshell for the common user.

Just as the rumors predicted. You can pre-order now through Apple’s online store.

I would much rather you click on one of the Snow Leopard links to your right. It makes me fabulously rich.

I think this was a “premature” slip-up, however all signs are pointing to an imminent release of Snow Leopard.

Speaking of pointing. May I point out the amazon links to the right. Buy Snow Leopard through that link and I become fabulously wealthy.

Make your own progress spinner.
