The Year in Macs, Part One

The Year in Macs, Part One 12/30/2004 02:10 PM

An army of iPods, a redesigned iMac, and a Tiger looming on the horizon-2004 proved to be quite a year for Apple. MacCentral.com Editor Jim Dalrymple takes a look back at the last 12 months in a two-part review of Apple's busy year. Today's installment looks at significant hardware releases and updates. Part two will examine software news, Apple's financial performance, and assorted legal wranglings involving the company.

John Lautner's Chemosphere: part
Jetsons, part Bond and vintage L.A.
Modern.
04/07/2005 12:53 PM
The most modern home built in the world. "From the outside it looks like a spaceship you cannot enter. But if you go inside, it feels very cozy… very Zen and calming. Maybe because you are floating above the city, in the sky". John Lautner's Chemosphere residence is the product of a fortuitous union of architect, client, time and place. Leonard Malin was a young aerospace engineer in late-1950s L.A. whose father-in-law had just given him a plot north of Mulholland Drive, near Laurel Canyon. The only catch: at roughly 45 degrees, the slope was all but unbuildable. Lautner sketched a bold vertical line, a cross, and a curve above it. "Draw it up," he told his assistant. Now publisher Benedik t Taschen owns Chemosphere (NSFW), and after 20 years of neglect the house has been beautifully restored (.pdf) by Frank Escher.

Paddling Out to Catch the Enterprise Wave

"From the shore, they look like tiny dots slowly making their way out past the breakers. They're the software vendors positioning themselves to catch the Enterprise RSS wave. My, that's a lot of tiny dots...." [MoonWatcher]
RSS was big in 2004, but next year is going to be something else. It's killing me that I can't say more, but I know of two major library vendors that will make big announcements about RSS in 2005. It's going to be a fun year!

Conferences with Macs


Conferences with Macs 04/09/2004 04:08 PM

Three reasons Macs make excellent companions to geek-centric conferences:

  1. iChat and Rendezvous. iChat uses Rendezvous (aka zero configuration networking) to automatically display a list of all other iChat users on the same network as you. In a conference setting this can be a great way of seeing who's around - I met a couple of people at SxSW who I'd been hoping to run in to by co-ordinating a metting via iChat. A few panelists even used iChat to take questions during their panels. Here's a screenshot of iChat Rendezvous taken during SxSW.
  2. SubEthaEdit, which really has to be seen to be believed. I made a half hearted attempt to get a SubEthaEdit session going at SxSW but failed to achieve critical mass. Ted Leung at PyCon seems to have got it sussed.
  3. EtherPEG. This isn't as essential as the other two but can be a lot of fun - it's an ethical (as in it doesn't steal anything important) network sniffer which displays a selection of images currently being transferred across the network. It provides an often surreal insight in to the browsing habits of other conference goers.

I remember hearing Mac owners complain of being treated like second-class citizens. I haven't felt like that once in nearly three months of owning a Mac.
