Chutzpah + $50B in cash = solution to our problems







Chutzpah + $50B in cash = solution to
our problems

Chutzpah + $50B in cash = solution to
our problems
06/17/2005 04:39 PM

Yah gotta love Microsoft's answer to one of the biggest conundrum's facing us today - the fragmentation of the music downloading market.

Why would we think that customers will be happy being locked into ONE format for music?

Why would we think that customers would be happy being forced to play their music - out of sepearate jukeboxes - based upon where they bought the music?

That's absurd!

I hope this exposes Apple's true colors to all you Mac zealots out there.

Not that I wanna see us all lock into Microsoft's DRM - but it takes real chutzpah to do what they're doing!

Solution to gcc problems. 12/19/2004 03:50 PM
Apple has released the November 2004 gcc3 updater, available (upon free registration) at connect.apple.com. This updater fixes the problems with the gcc3 compiler in XCode 1.5. If you are using XCode 1.5, you should install this updater. (The updater will update correctly for users with an untouched XCode 1.5, and also for users who installed the workaround which the fink project had previously recommended.) We would like to thank Apple for responding to our reports about this matter, and working to resolve it as quickly as possible.

Microsoft's Solution To XP WiFi
Problems: Semantics
06/04/2004 11:05 AM
Going one step further than the "it's not a bug, it's a feature" type of response, Microsoft has just gone a little nutty in trying to defend themselves against claims that XP's Wireless Zero Configuration sometimes just drops the connection without telling the user. First, they claim they've never really heard of the problem, despite the fact that many have experienced it (though, as the article points out, many blame the WiFi hardware, rather than the software). However, one of the major complaints is that the little connection icon in the task bar still shows a connection, though no data is coming back from the access point. When asked why the icon doesn't show the loss of connectivity, Microsoft responds with this: "It indicates that you've associated with an access point. It is possible for you to be associated without having connectivity." Now, if you're techie enough (and many of you are) it's not too hard to figure out what this means, but there's no way the average user wants to care about the difference between "associated with an access point" and "having connectivity." While it may be useful to pinpoint that the problem does not have to do a problem between associating the machine and the access point, why not just have a separate way of indicating if there's no connectivity as well?

Blodget's latest missive is entitled, "When They Say 'Buy,' Sell" -- part of his "How to Understand Wall Street" series. Ironic? Try grotesque.
