Screw other platforms and their inferior GUI development tools.

Hi Flatcatch, Glad you're getting back to Mac. I wrote a few small things in Objective-C but could not get myself motivated to write anything big in it. After being a Java guy, …

Let us know how you make out. Forget a lot about what you know about Visual Studio. It will hold you back.

Thanks guys for the suggestions - I appreciate it. It's helpful to know some of the key differences between the Windows C++ world and Mac Obj-C ahead of time. As far as what I wan…

If you ever use video-chat, the iSight has a great microphone built in. Much better than the internal iBook mic.

Yeah it's too bad, because they do actually dream up the right shape and appearance of their products; they're just crappy.

I went from a Dual 2G to a single 2G iMac - with more RAM on the single 2G. Frankly, I find the single as fast as my Dual 2G was in MOST cases, with exceptions when I'm really usin…

My Dual 2 is still so much faster than I can ever imagine. I'm not sure what will eventually drive me to a new machine .... software will have to get MUCH more demanding.
