Wow, very surprised that any Apple Store manager would be that candid. Might be worth his job if any muckety-mucks ever hear about it? Not the sort of thing they'd want quoted anyw…

The glossy screen of my MacBook was definitely something I feared after years of using matte screens on my Macs. I was certain the screen would be a probem in the very very bright …

I have an original 17" PB, and realizing that this is somewhat old display technology, my laptop is completely useless outside. Period. Unless it's night time. I realize that th…

I notice that no-one has talked about design issues with a glossy screen -- I would *expect* that print and web designers would stick to matte, but am kind of curious if that's the…

I fully understand what you are saying about opportunity cost and I think you are wise to not try and do everything in version 2. Of course, you could address the problem by devel…

You can actually link a URL to any media you have, and launch it from Delicious Library. I haven't actually tried using a file URL to an Applescript, but heck, maybe it would work?
