Part II: Intel as friend
Part II: Intel as friend
06/05/2005 11:20 PMIf the reports are to be believed, today, June 5, 2005, will mark the
last full day of Apple Computer Inc. as we know it.
Based on the activity Kevin April's article, "Earth shattering: Apple
to switch to Intel in 2006," has received, there's not much explaining
that needs to follow that statement. But in case you missed it (or the
dozens of related posts), CNET is reporting that Apple will announce a
gradual transition to Intel processors Monday.
Had this story been reported Saturday, my column would have been
filled with doomsday propositions and woe, as I lamented the demise of
a once-great computer company, one of the few which truly thought
differently and consistently gave me a reason to engage my friends in
friendly debate.
I would have predicted the fall of the Mac culture and Web presence,
waved goodbye to the revolution and clenched my iPod fervently in my
left hand while typing with my right.
That, and I might have tendered my resignation.
But now that I've had a few hours to digest this rumor, I see things a
little differently than I did when I first read Spymac's breaking news
Friday night. I've had a chance to put things in perspective.
So, let's assume worst-case scenario, that CNET's report is completely
accurate and Steve Jobs will demo a new Mac with an Intel processor
during Monday's WWDC keynote. Let's say he abandons both IBM and
Motorola, and jumps into the ring with the likes of Dell and Compaq
using Intel's existing technology. And while we're at it, let's say
we'll be able to run Longhorn on all new Macs by 2007.
Is the prospect of a partitioned Mac running Longhorn and OS X
side-by-side really so terrible?
For one, OS X or XI or XII will always be Mac-centric. As the saying
goes, "Why buy the cow when you get the milk for free?" Apple knows
this and will find a way to keep its operating system proprietary.
But what if it didn't? What if a shopper on Dell.com was able to
choose between Windows and OS X? Switching software is the same as
switching hardware, right?
If that's the case, however, Apple's family of CPUs are going to
suffer in the sales department. I mean, why buy a $1,499 iMac when a
$399 Dell can run the same virus-free OS just as well?
We could very well be in store for a major shift in strategy by Apple.
It could drop several of its hardware lines and instead focus on
chipping away at Microsoft's 90 percent OS share. Think of sole
desktop and portable lines, with each family having three different
models that satisfy budget and power needs.
And think of all the goodies we'll be able to put inside those
Intel-based machines.
Clearly, Apple has thought all of this through and Steve will ease all
of our concerns on Monday. If Steve did ink a deal with Intel,
however, you have to assume that as soon as he left the offices, Intel
CEO Paul Otellini was on the phone to Bill Gates with the scoop.
And don't think for a second that Gates wasn't in on the deal from day
one.
And also, remember when Otellini, when questioned about security by a
reporter at the D: All Things Digital conference in late May,
responded with, "If you want to fix it tomorrow, maybe you should buy
something else."
This all makes for an eyes-glued-to-the-Internet Monday, and with no
broadcast planned, there's going to be some heavy traffic on whatever
sites are lucky enough to have running updates.
Apple will always be Apple, and there will always be a place for
Spymac and the legions of devoted fans. And there will never be an
"Intel Inside" sticker on the front of anything made by Cupertino’s
laboratories.
The heart and soul of Apple is in its ability to stay one step ahead
of the cutting edge and a change in chip won't change that.
Just think of it as leveling the playing field once and for all.

Christmas! My old enemy! We meet at
last...
12/19/2003 03:48 PMImagine me, if you will, in a smoking jacket. Imagine a thin moody
moustache is slithering across my upper lip rather than the manly
unkemptness that I call my beard. Imagine that I'm sitting in a 60s
pod-chair - almost completely spherical apart from a hole from which I
peer, and suspended on the slightest tapering base. Imagine as you
enter, I turn around to face you with a smile of grim satisfaction on
my face. And then I say:
"Ah Christmas! My old enemy! We meet at
last..."
Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm terribly afraid that you're not likely to
get much more plasticbaggery over the next week, as I have an
astonishing range of Christmas-related activities to indulge myself
in. At least part of that period will be spent with my family who
believe that any computer than runs a browser after IE4 and does so
via a non-free dial-up ISP (that cuts you off every twenty seconds) is
the closest thing to pure evil that they can imagine. Such an
environment is not conducive to regular postage. I shall return with
many stories shortly before the New Year (and I'll still be available
on e-mail and there's always someone to talk to on Barbelith if you get
desperate), but otherwise, if I don't see you before, have a wonderful
Christmas!

A Group Is Its Own Worst Enemy
01/07/2004 02:54 PM
(This essay is a lightly edited version of a talk, "A Group Is Its Own
Worst Enemy", about persistent patterns in the design and operation of
large-scale and long-lived online groups. I gave this talk at the
O'Reilly Emerging Tech conference in April of 2003.)
This talk is in three parts. The best explanation I have found for
the kinds of things that happen when groups of humans interact is
psychological research that predates the Internet, so the first part
is going to be about W.R. Bion's research, which I will talk about in
a moment, research that I believe explains how and why a group is its
own worst enemy.
The second part is: Why now? What's going on now that makes this
worth thinking about? I think we're seeing a revolution in social
software in the current environment that's really interesting.
And third, I want to identify some things, about half a dozen things,
in fact, that I think are core to any software that supports larger,
long-lived groups.

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.

Benedik
t Taschen owns Chemosphere (NSFW), and after 20
years of neglect the house has been beautifully
