This depends if you want to make profit or have 100% nice coments about your product. Microsoft started being successful by simply releasing software that was not bug free, but they got there first. Often times for a product category the profit only accrues to whomever ships first.
Under the menu Bar Apple ( Blue ) select software update.

Osama Bin Laden is a Platinum AAdvantage member. He has racked up millions of miles - he is hiding on airplanes. He knows he is immune to questioning with his platinum card. But AA cannot find him - they think he is travelling on a silver card.
American Airlines as a rule have always been paranoid. In 1995 I travelled from Dubai to Hawaii. Stopping in London, I had to wait for an AA flight to the US and on to Hawaii. When I checked in ( tired and grumpy ) a rentacop started quizzing me as he studied my passport. He asked did I go to Saudi on Business or pleasure. I replied sarcastically that if he knew anything he would be aware that Saudi only issued visas for business. Then he started asking where I stayed in Dharan ( I was there for Saudi Aramco ), so I told him if he knew anything, everyone stayed in the Oberoi in Dammam. I then told him to piss off and get a real cop if he was worried that I was a terrorist. My passport? US. But with 80 pages of Arabic visas.
He then shut up and let me through.
In Texas on the way to a funeral, I had lots of connection time and left the terminal for a walk carrying a book. Coming back a HUGE guard insisted I xray the book ( 1982 ) . I quipped that the plot was explosive and she replied that she could arrest me for that comment. My father coming to the same funerall was robbed at knifepoint in JFK between the airplane and immigration.
Security? No, little people inflating little lives with power. Facism is like this. Oh, but the US is democratic, right?
SAML cver authentication AND authorization. A site may ask for extra authentication before granting authorization. i.e. a second password or a smart card.
At times we suffer from too much interaction. My favorite use of an iPod is at take off and landing on an airplane. Of course the staff always tell me to turn it off, but as soon as they pass, on goes the music again. Of course I cannot wait for some freak to attack me about danger to aircraft instrument navigation.....
Being crammed in (I fly a lot, every week), this allows me some feeling of space and control. Also
SHOULD the plane crash, I can just turn up the volume and not have to listen to people wailing and screaming. I want to go out to music I enjoy....
I prefer social interaction in places that are niceer than airplanes. Most people when flying adopt the personna of a sheep, with social and conversational skills of a donkey.
But what about UUCP? My first Internet account was via Trinity College, Dublin, via UUCP. A university in the UK arranged to forward my dialin via IP to Ireland.
I remember getting 4Kbytes a second downloads for email in 1992. With a 9,6 compressing.
Remember the Digital Equipment email ftp servers?
The excitement when all 57 email segments worked and you had a real download.
When I switched to ppp, boy was email downloads slow.
As an "Architect" you might want to read detail. I stated clearly there was no policy. Had there been a policy I would not have connected. For your pissant statement, I have 12 years UNIX experience, up to the level of analyizing core dumps.
The people I deliver an architecture to ( 2 major European mobile telcos) do not give a crap about "networks". They want results.
I support sensible standards, and I use the most productibe platform so I can be...... productive.
My attitude is pragmatic. I am not hired to fix "flawed Windoze" policies or fight for days to get applications and connectivity, since usually I work on a Pan European basis and cannot afford to dick around in each location educating IT people to have written polices and what those polices should contain.
Refrain for using pissant in a contect that perhaps you have no knowledge of.
By the way, I design systems. Pissants design networks.
They always use DCHP. However, the Mac instantly pops up a window as soon as there is a conflict, and the Mac bows out gracefully. I then choose another.
IP conflict happens about once every.........4 years.
Security Policies must reflect sanity. In no instance was there a written or verabl policy given to me........had I been told NO I would have complied.
Trust me, I also write security policies AND the processes to make sure they work.
My job is to get work done. My Mac gets work done.
I was not compromising anything. Having a PC with Windows ensures that any bunny can compromize the network.
>>Sadly, there's just no way I can justify springing A$3000 for the equivalent of an A$1500 PC
I hope you drive a CHEAP russian car with a 2 stroke engine. Why in the PC world do people always buy the cheapest nastiest products? I laugh when I meet guys driving BMW;s while piloting a nasty cheap plastic Dell.
I myself Drive a Subaru and only Mac's both quality products that start first time every morning. My Mac has been dropped on a tile floor 6 times now, the case is cracked to hell BUT WOW, the extra money for quality means it works still. My friend dropper a Dell on the carpet and 6 weeks later and MUCH bucks, he got a bootable computer.
I just came back from Afghanistan, there I needed quality. Horrible dust and heat, and it still works.
Don't you just love the smell of 2 stroke engines, they smell.......cheap.
I am an IT architect who has for the last 10 years simply plugged my Mac into any LAN where I work.
TCPDump allows me to sniff what network range is in use, then ping for an unused IP, and away I go.
When support staff walk around, just unplug and look innocent.
99% of corporate security is LAX and allows anything.
I keep virtual PC for Project and Visio.
Afer staff see me, there is a flood of portables that then appear when the users figure out that can use their nice sleek powerful home portable as opposed to rigid old slow corporate junk.
And yes, now with OS X, I can connect easier to Windoze servers. With OS 9 I used DAVE.

Switch is what I use - Nat West, and I have a London Post Code. I bought my first album this afternoon. Took a while obviously load related issues.
