Apple is serving every xbox developer too! ;-)

It's all about consistency. You can have the most amazingly creative design but if it doesn't hold up the whole way through it breaks down in the mind of the consumer [...]

iTunes is useful for anyone with CDs and some
hard drive space who wants to turn their computer
into a smart jukebox.

I guess that's not you, but it doesn't require
iPod, digital camera, or video camera.

I think it's good for kids to create stuff, and
they like to do that sort of thing. So digital
editing for schools makes a lot of sense to me.
My fifth-grade class performed The Mikado, and I
imagine it would have been pretty cool if we could
have filmed it and made a DVD from it. I think
kids should know that DVDs don't have to be made
by Hollywood, they can be made by people too.

Big Deal
