Hacking Mac OS X
Bill Hamm writes "DB is carrying a deep interview with Jonathan Rentzsch, who created an open source technology to allow other developers to inject their code into any running process to alter its functions and written papers for IBM to program the PowerPC correctly. The interview is huge and technical, and all over the place in terms of content. Some of the things discussed are the reasons for corporate America's resistance to buying from Apple, software optimization, the importance and history of 10.4's Core Data, why WebObjects is no longer relevant, the status of PowerPC compilers, and why Mac OS X's Finder should be killed off."
Umm, Dock works just fine for me. Maybe you need to go get a book or something.

So, suddenly if a vulnerability appears in <s>internet explorer</s> safari that lets <s>activex</s> applescript interact, though the web with <s>windows media player</s> VLC, and we've got all sorts of problems on our hands!
The truth isn't offtopic. When we need to buy a new Mac, it's a mjor production with lease options considered, capital budgets, etc. It costs about $5000 to buy a new mac once you add in all the prepress software you need.
A new Linux box on the other hand, it's a quick $500 and then it's over.
I've had enough abrasive sigs. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.
Are there Macs or PCs in that abortion clinic?
