    I hate Apple with a passion. I've hated them for years. I administrate a bunch of old bastard Macs and their users and I hate them all.

    BUT! ....

    If you want a system like this done well, you'll wait for Apple to do it. They pour more intelligent research into the user experience than anyone else. You'll be garounteed ease of use, comfortable portable device, and software that doesn't break.

    Unfortunately you'll be stuck with OS X and the nasty Aqua interface. Oh, and the desktop will have a one button mouse (:

    i'm gonna plunk my karma bonus down to get this seen by the +2 doods. yeah.

    but just as it's easy to see things all happyshiny by focusing on the revenue, it's easy to see things as superpizacrap by focusing on the losses.

    despite the losses, transmeta _is_ pulling in more revenue. this is good. so if you look at the _whole_ picture, you'll see that transmeta _has_ been strengthening its position from very, very shitty to very, very shitty with little flecks of gold.

    yeah, i guess any way you slice it, transmeta ain't doing so hot.
