Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 06/20/2008
The analogies don't work. I do wish people would stop trying to use them. And meanwhile, I want to live in a world where there's free wifi everywhere. Which is why my AP is left open with an SSID which is my address. Long live the Linksys/Belkin/Dlink def … (see comment)

My problem was always the other way round. I wanted Quicktime but didn't want iTunes. And every time the updater went off it tried to install iTunes again. Just stop it, Apple. It's not clever and it's not funny. (see comment)

Apple's fixes show it is a good open-source citizen
Comment in News (4 diggs, 2 replies) - on 03/21/2008
So how about looking at OSX as if it's a Linux Distro. How good and timely is Apple about pushing upstream updates out into the Distro update channel? How complete is there repository? As good as say Ubuntu or Fedora? Or worse? (see comment)
