  • Since when have OS developers not borrowed from innovative ideas grown in shareware or published applications. Microsoft has long been a leader of flattery payment for copied goodness. Remember the disk compression of Dos 5? Stacker does. Most people will probably say whose stacker? My goodness in this case they are only borrowing from themselves (I don't know if I can place a link to any site here but you can link from my blog to the original article I'm referring to at [url=http://www.minezamac.com)]www.minezamac.com )[/url] on folklore.org there is an article about desktop ornaments from 1981 that is exactly what later became desk accessories and then etc. that shows it is all just an evolving improving idea. Konfabulator is a great app but it isn't a new idea. It really more of a javascript developers framework than a desktop accessory app. So instead of getting pissed at Apple be glad someone there had a light-bulb go off and say "you know it would be nice if I could get at my calculator or whatever when I do this and it then go away".

    Apple: Innovate Doesn't Mean Stealing
  • I am writing to you on MY new 12" powerbook and I can assure you I have not experienced your iTunes related or any related Application crash when I first installed everything. I too have enjoyed some application crashes but they have been in Camino or Safari and once in the new iLife 04 version of iDVD after having the book for a while and installing a bit of everything on it. On the whole each of those incidents has allowed an extremely graceful recovery, never requiring anything more than a restart. I have to agree with the other posters that your incident though real is probly issolated to your experience and not widespread. At least from our sample of 2 12" Panther running Powerbooks it is at best half of them ;) [url=http://www.Minezamac.com]www.minezamac.com [/url]
