    Is Less Always More?  (Simplify More, It’s Better) « SmoothSpan Blog

    Well said...

    Quoted: The process of making new things simple to win a market is a story that Apple understands extremely well, given their overwhelming focus on the user experience. There’s nothing really very simple or very “less is more”, about the iPhone, for example. Yet it gloriously made a bunch of clunky stuff simple and a lot of hard stuff possible.

    Bill Gates Retirement Party: Why I Still Use Windows Despite the Peer Pressure

    For all you Mac cult members...

    Quoted: Furthermore, beyond the OS itself, I hate the cult of personality that surrounds Steve Jobs. I like the soon-to-be-retired Bill Gates way more than Steve Jobs, because the guy cares about more than just making enough money to build a castle for himself out of stacks of $100 bills (not that Bill can't do that).

    Apple: What Could Go Wrong

    Quoted: You might say that Steve Jobs is the Marc Jacobs of computers (minus the heroin), betting the house his products will be, season after season, cooler than anyone else’s. Yet fashion is, by definition, fickle. Lose the buzz, and you’ve got trouble.

    Dreaded Blue Screen of Death mars some Leopard installs | The Register

    This is arguably what Apple deserves for using the Blue Screen of Death as the image for Windows machines in Leopard.

    Quoted: A thread in Apple's official support forum titled Installation appears stuck on a plain blue screen had more than 300 posts when this article was last updated. A large percentage of the writers report getting a persistent blue screen after installing Leopard and then rebooting for the first time. These early-adopters have no option but to forcibly shut the machine down.

    This message it taking up nearly all the space above the fold...It's actually difficult to find Apple-related stuff. Gore is on their board of directors.

    Quoted:Al has put his heart and soul, and much of his life during the past several years, into alerting and educating us all on the climate crisis. We are bursting with pride for Al and this historic recognition of his global contributions.

    Apple Envy - Joel on Software

    The back of the iPod says, "Designed by Apple in California". The back of the Zune says, "Hello from Seattle".

    Quoted: Um... excuse me? Hello from Seattle? That has, I'm afraid, none of the same resonance. It evokes nothing. Boeing and rain, maybe. Kurt Cobain's unhappiness.
    ...
    But really it's just a desperate desire to be like Apple, without even a smidgen of understanding of the culture code that makes Designed by Apple in California work.
