Happy Leopard Day!

As Mac OS X releases go, this one is a bit on the bland side. Dead-simple backup will be great for those who have no backup system in place already. And those iChat video effects will appeal to the kids. And some of the stuff they did to the Desktop and the Finder is just weird.

I think Brad said it best, that the really interesting stuff is going to be the third party apps that are built on Leopard. And I'm sure there will be lots of minor improvements that will add up to a better experience (AutoFS, for example.)

And so, Happy Leopard Day!

The Touch

Isn't "The Touch" the song Marky Mark records in Boggie Nights after Bandit kicks him out?

This is my first post to TypePad using an iPod touch. The kid next to me in the store is bugging me. :)

(Tabitha just spotted a typo in the app. Whuh-oh.)

Update: "The Touch" is that song from Boogie Nights and omigod it's originally from the animated Transformers movie. That's just completely excellent.

Store Upgrade

The Burlingame Apple Store has been closed for the past week or so while they gutted the interior. The new layout is nice. The Genius Bar has been moved to the back where the checkout counter used to be. There are more accessories on the walls and more machines to play with.
