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.
Exhibit B... the MacOS interface...stolen from Xerox PARC...that's right, outright STOLEN
I don't know many thieves who pay for their stolen goods... Get your facts straight.
They paid because they were caught in the act. 'Nuff said.
And it's very telling that this was the only place in my argument that you found a (rather insignificant IMHO) weakness.
