Apple Introduces Boot Camp

Apple does it. Very interesting for Apple to come at it this way. Windows users are used to a little more pre-announcements than Mac users. Quite a development.


Virtualization of MacBook Pro laptops here already?

According to a Techworld.com report, a Russian company is planning to release software that will allow Linux, Mac OS X and Windows to run on a machine at the same time:

“This is not simply a “dual-boot” but instead gives our users the ability to use Windows or any other operating system at the same time as Mac OS X, enabling users to enjoy the comfort of their Mac OS X desktop while still being able to use critical applications from other OSes.”

Could be interesting, more details later this week.


Textpander

Here is a sweet utility called Textpander that uses simple keystrokes to type out user-defined chunks of text. Uses might include email signatures, addresses, salutations, date/time stamps and other text fragments. It’s a universal binary as well.


Interesting Development

Could this be the holy grail of web development?

Plus, it’s a universal binary, so you brave souls who have Intel inside can manage your fonts as well.
