Spotlight Improvements In Leopard
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard is set to feature several new enhancements to Spotlight, Apple's desktop search, and ComputerWorld outlines them. The improvements include searching across multiple networked Macs, parental search snooping, server Spotlight indexing, boolean search, better application launching (sorely needed), and quick-look previews.
You know, Windows used to be like Linux back some 12+ years ago.
Click RUN type D:\setup.exe
if you steal from one source, that is plagiarism, if you steal from many, well, that's just research.
People who claim linux is ready for the desktop need to figure out how many grandmas want to type "sudo apt-get install beagle python-beagle" in a fricking terminal window to get search working.
Oh come on. Even my grandma can type grep and find, and that's all anyone needs. Pussies.
How many grandmas can figure out a Windows "next, next, next" type install?
Especially since you can use the "Add/Remove" programs applet in Ubuntu to (gasp!) actually add programs (unlike in Windows), your rant is kind of hollow.
A deep unwavering belief is a sure sign you're missing something...
switch to Vista now. ... Then you could search your kids stuff if you wanted, but if you didn't want to treat them like a 'criminal' it is easier to just use the parental controls so you know they aren't into crap an 8 year old shouldn't get into even accidentally.
Wow, that way I'd not only get a system I can't trust because it has a wiretap "feature" I'd also put M$ blinders on my kids. Do parental controls do like Steve and "brainwashed" them from iPod to Zune?
I've got my kids brainwashed: You don't use Google, and you don't use an iPod.
Like I want that man controlling anything that has anything to do with my kids.
Friends don't help friends install M$ junk.
Shhhh. Don't frighten them. The mac zealots are actually dissing a mac feature. This gets them upset and kinda weepy, so be nice and don't even mention Windows thingys, it will just work them up even more.
Faster! Faster! Faster would be better!
