I've worked/developed on HP-UX, DECstations, NeXTSTEP/Openstep on Motos/HP-PARISC/x86/SPARC Windows on all sorts of boxes and soon I can't wait to get my hands on a G5 Dual 2Ghz.
Have I ever bought a fucking game for any platform?
No!
Have I played a lot of games. Yes. On Macs, PCs, etc. running from Doom to Quake to Metal of Honor but do I give a shit to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars running around in first person thrashing people during my days?
No.
I save gaming for the Playstation/PS2 where it is just that a Gaming Platform.
Don't penalize the sales of superior hardware by the lack of your current favorite Video Game.
It's a chicken before the egg scenario.
If the hardware/software is compelling and the market share increases any intelligent gaming company will port without being asked to port.
It helps from all ends.
It starts with productivity apps, not Games, though having a topknotch gaming platform is a must to ease the transition.
Gaming is huge in the World and I'm happy for that because we can't always be serious but it is not Life.
No offense, but Yes Safari would exist. The Engineers just chose not to use Gecko and also not to develop their own, in-house trying to add to a project that already invented the wheel.
So if KHTML did not exist trust me they would have most likely fixed Gecko to suit their needs or write their own.
If I can help an endearing woman watercolor artist/housewife, back in the late 1990's while working for Apple Enterprise Tech Support get Openstep 4.2 on a Toshiba Laptop with all the bells and whistles any 'smart' person with IT knowledge of hardware, device drivers and basic understandings of BIOS within the x86 realm should sure as hell know how to get Debian to install.
God how hard is it to download the disk images, burn them and boot off of CD? It's self explanatory.
And yes no distro seems to match even NeXTSTEP/Openstep's Installation process that now is part of OS X--that's a credit to the brilliance of the folks I as a peon was lucky to have bagels and cream cheese or playing foosball with (EOF Team were awesome players by the way)--but damn if you can't handle that for sure what hope is there for the general consumer to be able to install, outside of the RedHat world or SUSE world?
I'm trying to figure out what's stopping you from downloading the latest Trolltech source, compiling it for OS X and using OS X's xfree86's Quartz optimized X Server, then either compile KDE from source yourself by changing some of the configuration flags, or seeing if there are available packages already via Fink.
The Iterator you use seems to break down on the third iteration.
1750 morphs into 8750 and then 43,750 morphs into 218,750 after halving and then magnifying by a factor of 10.
So taking i(n) = i(n-1)*0.5*10 where n is the current iteration and n-1 the previous result. Also, 0.5 is a constant variable for women and each woman able to generate 10 healthy offspring in a single life span less than 100 years.
So it looks like somewhere within the 6th generation the number exceeds 250,000.
Regarding "THE CHRISTOS and BUDDHA": Both would be equivalent from an Occult perspective and note I said, "THE CHRISTOS" not Jesus Christ which is in itself a bastardization of the term THE CHRISTOS since it is a title bestowed upon an enlightened human being, not "The Son of God" as so the dying pantheon of Christianity proclaims. What The Christ and Buddha have in common is the representation of Suffering. For rebirth to occur the third chapter in the saga would have to represent War of the Conquering Child which NEO equivalently represents--a completely necessary and neither Christ Like nor Buddhistic approach but one of a Horus stance. Horus being the third representation of the Osisis-Isis-Horus pathway. The Crowned and Conquering Child who is the God of War and Meditation.
I expect the World of Illusion to to be what it is--a unique and individualistic changing of reality that will take more than 6 generations to occur, to say the least since it doesn't happen on a Global scale but a Local/Individual scale.
Having worked at NeXT I was fortunate enough to secure a copy of the MECCA Project which I will tell you is still LIGHTYEARS Ahead of MacOS X's UI.
When I see OS X or should we say OS XI introduce something called a "TABBED DOCKING SHELF" where every item is truly an reusable Object that can be easily drag n' dropped into any document window then I will be even more happy.
OS X is a rollback to what it should be but on purpose. Thanks to Steve's intelligence and learning from the past with NeXT, Apple will introduce the next series of changes the operating system world will enjoy, along with continuing to refine offering others have introduced and do it better.
They just do not see a financial win/win return on investment, business case.
How do I know? I've worked at both shops and I agree the business case is just not there.
If you really want to determine the Annuity on that Initial investment then take into account all the maintenance costs, etc in broadening the driver base that HAS TO BE THERE for x86 MacOS X to be profitable.
Architecturally speaking x86's limited IRQ's etc really is annoying. Ask nVidia and ATI how much better they enjoy developing drivers for OS X versus Windows, and even Linux.
I'm waiting to get my hands on the IBM 970 in the next generation Mac systems so I can get back to using MacOS X.
TALKING. All the rest is mental masturbation. Give me a Wireless phone that doesn't drop connections is all I ask. The companies should fix their backbones before they release pointless WOW factors that only 'sort of work' as billed.
Slashdot.org has a much larger and broader audience, than Macslash, so with that in mind having this re-run article gives more PR for Apple's X-RAID Product, yes?
No I do believe iLink that Sony adapted from Apple's Firewire and developed for XP is the skillful use, not Microsoft since afterall, Firewire is an "add-on" by 3rd parties and hence the sole responsibility of the 3rd party, not Microsoft.
Someone could correct me and I'd be more the wiser.
Apple since it has Firewire built-into OS X wasn't about to do IP over Firewire until they sorted out all the "critical needs" first for Mac Users. Adding a kernel extension tells me its been in the testing stage for quite some time but relinquished as unimportant until now when Apple's Digital Lifestyle devices become more of a reality to market.
Steve likes to have all his ducks-in-a-row before dazzling the crowds.
I find it rather ironic when folks tout this as some sort of advancement in Appserver development since NeXT did it first and has it from the ground up in WOF and all their framework philosophy.
Sounds very Orwellian where the documentary was 'staged' and in fact due to excellent care taken in maintaining a seamless flow the viewer is none the wiser.
Equate that CEO chatter as "visionary strategy talk" that will stimulate their stock price since Wall Street needs to hear now of newer market segments beyond the PC for AMD to be a viably strong stock.
This means that not only are they going to be PC chips but that their 64 bit emphasis will be targeted to the enterprise and that SUN and IBM and HP will have to watch closely.
I'm betting that IBM will sour any relatioship with AMD if HP starts selling SMP AMD Server clusters and SUN will view it as it always views enterprise server competition--another round.

So tell me.
Where is the support for Objective-C, ObjC++ and Java?
And yes I use Debian as well and it won't be of the same caliber as Xcode.
If I can help an endearing woman watercolor artist/housewife, back in the late 1990's while working for Apple Enterprise Tech Support get Openstep 4.2 on a Toshiba Laptop with all the bells and whistles any 'smart' person with IT knowledge of hardware, device drivers and basic understandings of BIOS within the x86 realm should sure as hell know how to get Debian to install.

Not to burst your bubble but that was and has been developed for Openstep 4 MECCA and was never implemented.
Just because it isn't currently out doesn't mean it hasn't been developed.
Regarding your Math,
The Iterator you use seems to break down on the third iteration.
1750 morphs into 8750 and then 43,750 morphs into 218,750 after halving and then magnifying by a factor of 10.

It seems more like:
12 * 0.5 * 10 childen = 60 ppl
60 * 0.5 * 10 = 300 ppl
300 * 0.5 * 10 = 1500 ppl
1500 * 0.5 * 10 = 7500 ppl
3750 * 0.5 * 10 = 18,750 ppl
18,750 * 0.5 * 10 = 93,750 ppl
93,750 * 0.5 * 10 = 468,750 ppl
So it looks like somewhere within the 6th generation the number exceeds 250,000.

Thank you.
And to the gentleman who had the insight to see the AppleMusic.com for the independent artist also deserves a thank you.
Two people with keen minds. The human race will survive and thrive.
Only the deal is the few will rule because they can think outside of the box while the majority whine like the idiot who declared 10 cents per song.
Good luck!
Full Elliptical Encryption is not any sort of technology that RSA or all the other crypto shops can match.
Ask Richard Crandall the brains behind it.
They just do not see a financial win/win return on investment, business case.
How do I know? I've worked at both shops and I agree the business case is just not there.

For now I use Debian/KDE which I also love.
TALKING. All the rest is mental masturbation. Give me a Wireless phone that doesn't drop connections is all I ask. The companies should fix their backbones before they release pointless WOW factors that only 'sort of work' as billed.
For the price why don't you buy WebObjects 5.2 and use ProjectBuilder with InterfaceBuilder already?
Or better yet since you are discussing client-side apps you don't need to spend one penny and just download Apple's tools.
Of course if you are adamant and have lots of use with IntelliJ great but you'd be surprised how nice PB/IB work.

Glad to see you were strong enough in character to be referenced as Anonymous Coward. Grow a pair and write a sound discussion next time.

Mr. Shatner,
What first 4 steps would you recommend to one who is looking to get his first novel published?
P.S. Your part in Showtime was a riot. It helped the movie out when it needed it.
has any one bothered to see at the terminal if NXHost or man NXHost is even anywhere within the OS X underpinnings of WindowServer.app?
I would but I don't have OS X to run.
What browser client does this distasteful and absolutely heinous act occur within?
If you had to format to get journaling you wouldn't have such an option via Software Update now would you?
Me thinks you'd have to get a new CD and during the installation select Journaling ala Linux does with ReiserFS.
Nothing like short term gain to outweight long term loss.
I whole heartedly agree--perception of information whether it more fiction than fact is what he's trying to overcome.
We need more of it versus rants about past institutional histrionics and how they have fallen from some preconceived notion of Grace.
