Apple linkage
Some Apple-related interested news today:
- New iBooksâApple have announced a speed bump for the iBook. They now have 900 chunks worth of megahertzy goodness, plus larger hard drives. I love the new AlBooks, but I’m still very fond of the iBook. I think it’s something about the shiny, snowy look. And the Linux geeks love ‘em. [via MacNetJournal]
- Panther rumoursâsome interesting speculation about what might appear in the next revision of MacOSX. Fast user switching would be very welcome. (Mr. Bsag and I spend a lot of time waiting for each other’s applications to quit or restart when we log each other in and out. I share everything with my hubby except a user environmentâwhat he does with a desktop is shocking. And don’t even get me started on his desktop picture…) The ‘piles’ idea sounds intriguing too, but did they have to give it such a “Carry On” name? It reminds me less of a feature of a modern, go-ahead operating system and more of elderly people queuing at the chemist for some ointment. [via ext|circ]

Well I want one. I used to be a mac head. Then I went to windows.. then Linux and Now I want an ibook.----- Piles - yep, that was my first thought too. While "stacks" is not much better, I think it's more than enough better to be considered rather than the thought of geriatric ointments. =)

I think I would even prefer 'stacks'. Piles makes the words, "Ooo Matron!" (in a Kenneth Williams voice) pop into my head.
