A very special 3 hour show dedicated solely to the topic problem of Apple with the additional voices of OSNews owner David and OSNews Web-Wizard, Adam. We lay down our own Apple histories and 'geek cred', discuss [unavoidably] the iPhone and AppStore, what should be done about it but move onto bigger things like the 'Apple Tablet', Apple's changing trends in design and what each of us would do if we got the call to be CEO of Apple. This show was a lot of fun to record, and we hope you enjoy it, Apple fan or hater alike.

In Apple’s defense, whilst the implementation of the zoom button is a complete mess, I’m really glad that overall, OS X does not encourage you to maximise every damn window like Windows does. Despite having a 1440x900 screen, my web browser _always_ stays at 1024x768 and it’s so much better like that. Exposé and the other window manager features mean having different sized windows scattered around isn’t a problem.

That's not counter to my point. I almost never use maximized windows on the iMac (somtimes, though, I do, like when I'm working in iPhoto or Aperture). The problem is that there is a button whose implementation, I feel, is broken.
