"There can be no doubt that 2005 was a stellar year for Apple. From record-breaking quarterly financial reports and the release of Mac OS X Tiger to the announced transition of the Macintosh to the Intel platform and new iPods, Apple fired on all cylinders throughout much of the year, creating unprecedented demand for many of its products." Update: Here are photos of the cooling system for the Quad-core PowerMac-- one of those could counteract global warming. Seriously.

Member since:osViews exists by way of news and editorial contributions.
Unlike this site which is the product of a handful of editors cherry picking news pieces that suit their personal biases... My philosophy for osViews is that the general computing populace should dictate the news that is posted.
If you see any any major difference in the content this site and osViews publishes, its because osViews is a barometer of the opinions of the computing industry... and osNews is a barometer of... well, Thom's opinions.
If you would like to help the cause... please submit news links that you believe should be known... and submit original editorial content. osViews currently receives 30k - 40k page views per day. That should be more than enough to make it worth your while.
I'm also open to any suggestions you might have for the site.
Thanks for your support.

If you were to average out submitted pieces posted against Editor selected pieces posted, you'd see that submitted pieces far out weigh those that an editor picks that they consider to be of general interest to readers.
And in terms of osViews being a barometer of the opinions in the computer industry... how can you call a sample size of just 30k-40k the opinions of an entire industry? that sample size is far to small to be of any analytical merit as showing the wider views of the entire computer industry.
Osnews is the same we dont have nearly enough visitors to call our self an indicator of what the computer industry thinks is worth reading about.

Well, its excellent that OSViews exists. It is a most encouraging development. What we must all now hope is that it succeeds beyond the wildest dreams of its editor. Any help we can give, we should.
We should try to set up a similar site for the Gnome guy as well. Perhaps DTEViews?
No, this is not ironically posted. It is, very very sincerely, probably the only way to solve this particular problem.
