Cca. 1996, Steve’s take on Microsoft. The next year, he turns around and makes a deal with them. An interesting lesson in business relationships… I’m reminded of the old adage: “If you can’t say something nice, then don’t say nothing at all…” Yes, that’s a double negative, but that’s how I remember the saying. Here is the link.
Here is the link to a video introducing the sleek new G5 back in 2005.

From Apple Hot News: “Chances are your email server puts a limit on the size of the attachments you can send. So what do you do when you want to send an attachment that exceeds that limit? Try iChat. [Apr 19, 2006]” Here is the link.
TechCrunch has a review of music services currently available, and their side-by-side comparison is pretty good, but they forgot to include eMusic.
My wife and I use eMusic, and we think it’s pretty darn good! I wish they’d included it in their list of reviewed services.
They mentioned AllofMP3 among the services they reviewed, but it is a quasi-legal site – I can’t imagine the artists are getting properly paid for their music at $0.09/song, and I don’t know if they even signed deals with the site. While the price may be tempting, I have a feeling that site will get turned off or made to charge more at some point in the future.
eMusic at least has deals with each of the artists on the site, and they’re completely legitimate. The downloads are fast, the selection is growing, and the music is not hamstrung by silly DRM schemes. Along with the iTunes service, it is what Ligia and I use regularly.
