Multifaceted history of the Mac from Andy Hertzfeld and co







Multifaceted history of the Mac from

Multifaceted history of the Mac from
Andy Hertzfeld and co
01/26/2004 10:15 AM

The Folklore project is legendary designer Andy Hertzfeld's collaborative undertaking to collect anaecdotes from the birth of the Macintosh from the people who were there when it went down. Multiple perspectives illuminate the subjetivity of memory and the way that things are different from different points of view. (The back-end is a new software project meant to allow for folkloric collection and organization regarding any subject).

The first time we went to lunch, I found out that Burrell's creativity extended beyond his engineering work. He would often try to convince our waitress to concoct variations of the standard fare on the menu, thinking of something different every time.

For example, after he successfully persuaded a waitress to divide his pizza toppings into thirds, he asked her to do fifths the next time. Or he would sometimes try to order mixed sodas as if they were cocktails, in ever varying proportions, like three quarters Coke, and one quarter Sprite. Often, the waitress would balk but Burrell was sometimes charming enough to eventually convince her to comply. He would also obsess on certain foods, becoming fixated on Bulgarian Beef sandwiches from Vivi's for a while, and then a Pineapple Pizza phase (see Pineapple Pizza) , evolving to his most enduring favorite, sushi, which provided a new range of interesting choices and combinations.

01/23/2004 02:23 PM
While Canvas is an excellent technical-illustration program, we wouldn't recommend it over a full-blown CAD program; it just doesn't have all the tools an architect or an engineer needs in order to create technical drawings. However, if you want technical- and graphic-design capabilities without extreme specialization in one package, Canvas is your best bet. By Greg Miller (Macworld via MyAppleMenu)

marc,

hi, thought this would be of interest to the broadband community.

US Narrows Canadian Broadband Lead - US Broadband Penetration Grows to 46% - April 2004 Bandwidth Report

The US has narrowed Canada's broadband lead to 9.2%. US broadband penetration grew by 12.2% to 46% over the past year, while Canadian broadband adoption grew just 3% to 67% over the same time period.

http://www.websiteo ptimization.com/bw/0404/

there may also be a limit to the level of broadband penetration.

let me know if you have any questions,

- andy

(I got too late to see Howard "multiple intelligences" Gardner.) It's unusual for PCForum to have a union represented. It's part of the theme, "The World Wide World." It's not just about tech. I don't know how I'm going to manage... (Gender Note:: Of the 31 featured speakers, 10 are women.) Stern talks about the importance of unions to the American dream. [My father was a pro-union...

Andy Rooney Yells At Bill Gates For
Computer Power Button Placement


Andy Rooney Yells At Bill Gates For
Computer Power Button Placement
11/17/2003 02:06 AM
Andy Rooney is known for complaining. That's his schtick. He's not known for always getting the complaint right, however. In his latest set of complaints he's blaming Bill Gates for making his computer suck. He might be completely right on that front... However, he has two specific complaints and one of them has absolutely nothing to do with Microsoft of Bill Gates. He complains that the power button on every computer he's bought has been in a different spot. That may be true, but it's certainly not Bill's fault. His second complaint is an old joke that has been forwarded around by email for ages, about how odd it is that you need to press the "start" button to "shut down". He does have one good quote concerning the fact that you need to keep buying new computers, while typewriters would last forever: "I had one typewriter for 50 years, but I've bought seven computers in six years. I suppose that's why Bill Gates is rich and Underwood is out of business."
