I was present at Apple's WWDC yesterday and witnessed one of the historical moments in Apple's history, the introduction of their 64-bit platform. Am I impressed? The answer is complicated. I was happy to see Apple moving on and deliver. But I would have expected nothing less from a 4 billion tech company who had the need to catch up with the "other" platform, the 32-bit PC. You all heard by now what's new in yesterday's press releases and news coverings. But here is a wrap up of the first day of the conference and a commentary on what Apple
really announced yesterday, underneath its surrounding distortion field.
"Yes, I agree that Panther isn't all that innovative, but same with 10.1 - but it was far better than 10.0 because it actually pushes OS X as far as it can go."
Rajan, give me a break. You must not have seen the expo. Exposé all by itsely was enough of an innovative technology in Panther to consider a truly innovative OS. Thankfully, there was so many more innovations.
