This post is from one of several previous incarnations of this site and probably doesn’t quite fit the current format. In a former life this was a group blog and a tumblelog before it became a static jekyll site. If anything looks broken or is worded oddly that could be why. Pardon the dust.
I mean, what’s this supposed to be?! It looks like they haven’t finished the front off. And where’s my flat-panel iMac?
It seems they’ve painted themselves into a bit of a corner with their fancy stylings these days, in that whenever they release a new machine I just check to see if it looks any good and barely glance at the specs. Surely there’s only so many shapes and configurations that can be practical. Besides, it seems a touch odd to be releasing hardware that mainly appeals to one audience on looks while releasing software that mainly appeals to an entirely different market on internals.
Though, I suppose that’s the whole idea.
While I’m on the subject of Apple, OS X v10.1 (how clumsy is that?) is due in September, and by the looks of the preview page they’ve finally fixed a lot of stuff they should have had down in the first place. For instance; a movable dock, a genie replacement, some finder tweaks and all the DVD you can eat.
