MacHack Theme Unveiled

Carlos Finque writes "After much consideration, this year's theme of the annual MacHack conference was unveiled today: 'MacHack 18: Unstoppable'. Read the press statement and don't forget to register while you can. Mindful of the inevitability of their own conference and the unstoppability of it all, the committee looked for a suitable symbol for things that keep moving no matter what. It turned out that the committee needed look no further than their own Mac screen. Apple's own busy cursor -- the SPoD or 'Spinning Pizza of Death' -- is the inspiration for this year's MacHack theme element."

  1. when I hear unstoppable I think of OS 9 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Which I still have to use for a variety of legacy programs. It would be so nice if one of those clever hackers figured out how to put OS 9 back into it's box...(like virtual PC does with windows) so that we could keep 9 totally separate and save OS 9 states and not have to boot every time we want to start it again.
