Mac OS X Software Roundup

zpok writes "The Register runs an interview with the two only Mac OS X coders on the OpenOffice Project. In short: no, OO.org for Mac OS X won't be delayed until 2005, but they could really really use some help." jeblucas writes "There are new versions of Macromedia's media suite: Macromedia Studio MX 2004 with new versions of Dreamweaver, Flash and Fireworks. There's also a professional version of Flash (for PDA, phone, and video authoring with direct links to Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premier, and Avid Express) to be had for $700." A user writes, "Cricket Media has released a Mac OS X application for hardcore Netflix users who want to manage their accounts without using the website. The app is an interesting example of what can be done with WebKit." lordDallan writes "Opera had recently released Opera 6.03 for Mac OS X. Purchase of this version includes a free upgrade to 7.0 when it becomes available."

SubEthaEdit or whatever is a mind-numbingly STUPID name. I'm going to continue to call it Hydra, just like I still call Phoenix "Phoenix" and Chimera "Chimera". Good lord. Any idea on what the BS "legal issues" are all about? Can't be much of a trademark as I've never heard of any software program called Hydra before. Oh well guess when the C&D hits your mailbox you better fold unless you can afford to win.

I would've just named it "Tafkah"...

Also, just because I"m feeling rude: those guys are really dorky-looking. Except the guy on the left he looks pretty cool. Looks to me like he's trying to get away from the others.....

Say, isn't the guy in the OSX shirt a member of Kraftwerk...? Hmm...

You're funny

My Hotmail account is for anti-spam purposes. I use other e-mail addresses to communicate at work and with my friends, but I use this disposable address for public stuff like my Web page, Slashdot, chatrooms and whatnot. I think preserving my inboxen clean while filling MS servers with junk is definitely a win-win situation, moreover when you consider that I got plug-ins to block their ads.

As for the Flash stuff on my site, it's just getting pretty old :) I've made these animations like last year, and at that time I didn't know much about alternatives to mainstream software so I took the obvious path. Anyway, I've been thinking about new stuff to put in there soon, and of course I'll get rid of Flash stuff at one point. Thanks for your interest in my Web pages sir, any suggestions ? ;)
