Re:Can it 'display' black?

On: OLED Displays Technology Primer and Forecasting

Well I've got an LCD and a CRT sitting in front of me, and I'd say that the LCD has a much darker black than the CRT. Granted, it is a crappy CRT, but even with the power off the best it displays is a dark grey. But I'm with you in hoping that OLEDs liven the market up a bit.

Key Value Coding in Java (Cocoa)

On: Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X, 2nd Edition

If you could point me towards a source that has the KVC Currency Converter example written in Java I would be extremely grateful. Apple KVC Obj-C Sample

I can't seem to find an interface anywhere that provides the method setKeys(), which results in none of my classes being key value coding compliant.

It's a shame, because the Cocoa controllers look amazingly useful. I guess I've found out why the book recommends using Obj-C :( Java seems to be a second class citizen in Cocoaville.

XAML = perfect pop-up advertising utility

On: Miguel de Icaza on Mono, Ximian/Novell, XAML

If this XAML thingummy is as 'rich' as they say it is, then surely it will become another source of much-hated in-your-face adverts.

Eventuially, people will start disabling it in IE, and then everyone can relax.
