June 7, 2005July 31, 2011 Opinion 0

There’s of course a mix of shock, fear, anger, excitement, people pretending to be cool and blasé towards the whole thing, and the zombies walking around thinking, "my reality has just been distorted". Some very smart people are sitting in corners, rocking back and forth, saying to themselves, "how could Apple do this? Why? Why? Why?

Dashboard is a metaphor for what’s right and wrong at Apple

May 24, 2005July 30, 2011 Opinion 0

First, let me say Dashboard is cool, itâ€™s sexy, itâ€™s got neat transitions, and it is the number one selling feature of Tiger. Second, let me say Dashboard is crappy User Interface design, especially compared to what it could have been. The old Apple (before NeXT) would have been embarrassed to ever release anything this narrow in scope, and totally missing the bigger point.

Wouldn’t it be great if you were a rock star? We have visions of fame and riches, women throwing themselves at you, luxuries and prima donnas. While the women throwing themselves at you part might be a perk, the music industry is a business, and it is not always a pretty one.

I can’t guarantee you’ll become a millionaire by heeding my advice, but I think I can dramatically increase the odds of that happening.

Taking stock of Apple

January 24, 2005February 21, 2025 Opinion 0

The other day, a friend (who was one of my professors) asked me if I thought she should buy some Apple stock. Ironic, since the same day my brother asked the same thing. Being that I’m a wordy sod, and she was one of my teachers in business school, I felt I not only had to give an answer, but explain and support my answer.

Of Mac and Mini

January 14, 2005February 21, 2025 Features 0
