  1. The deal with VT first positive thought by danigiri · · Score: 5, Insightful
    My first impression on the news is that the new advantatges look fairly good and are a welcome deviation of the NIH (not invented here) syndrome that plagued Apple in the past.

    Apple has looked for -and seemingly found- which websites, tools and goodies its users actually use, even if they do not come from Apple, a big-name VAR or software company.

    Then, if the deals themselves are good or not is a matter of debate. I am a .Mac subscriber and I am right now debating wheter to renew my subscription, as thousands of Mac users are doing as well. These benefits might tip the balance... Paid web services are still on shaky ground, I think Apple any many others are still getting the hang of it (users too).

    My two eurocents...
