„Sony claims that the USB 2.0 interface is faster and, as the camcorder burns video directly to the rewriteable DVD disc, FireWire isn’t needed.“

„I untie the FireWire cable so I can hang iSight outside the window. But there is no place to put it on the outside. Oh, well, then I have to hang my left hand out, too, and hold it steady.“http://www.macasia.com/archives/2004_01.html - Cached

„The keynote stream Steve claimed that Apple was doing 250Kbps streams, but the “high-end” stream was actually a low-quality (albeit steady) 100Kbps, 192x144 MPEG-4 stream. Why did Apple sacrifice quality by using their poor MPEG-4 Video codec instead of the Sorenson Video 3 codec? Apparently in order to claim a “largest MPEG-4 webcast” win.“http://playbacktime.com/archives/000220.html - Cached

„Apple has been making the best notebooks in the universe for years (I’m not making that up, I guess Steve sees through the entire universe when he activates his field) and voilà, two brand new PowerBooks that promise to shield competition for another round. They sport (sometimes as an option) about anything you can dream about in terms of connectivity including Bluetooth, Gigabit Ethernet, the latest WiFi 54 dubbed as AirPort Extreme and FireWire 2 (800 Mbps). I expected USB2 but I guess it’s been sacrificed on the altar of FireWire 2 and that it won’t be missed that much anyway or be included later.“http://www.padawan.info/.../ steve_jobs_macworld_sf_2003_keynote_tidbits.html - Cached

„What are the long term implications for Mozilla of Apple's decision to go without Gecko? With the current polarization of developers around Apple's new MacOS X, is Mozilla going to loose its relevance as the "other" browser on the market? Can Apple fight this browser battle they've just entered?“http://www.stargeek.com/item/12615.html - Cached
„BTW, the "iLife ad" they showed after the demo was terrible, especially compared to the live demo, even more considering that many of the lines that the people in the video say had been used verbatim by Jobs before, which takes away a lot of the enjoyment of the keynote (What? You mean that the keynote was scripted?!? -- you're reminded of what you already knew but Jobs had made you forget).“http://www.stargeek.com/item/57012.html - Cached
„→ The MacWorld SF Keynote today, and it really was a doozy of announcements. I watched the whole keynote, and enjoyed it pretty well, and I just can't stop thinking about some of the announcements. Since there's no way I'm going to be able to afford any of that stuff at the moment, I really just need to do a brain dump of my thoughts on the thing, so I can get on with my life in the mean time.“http://www.linkstew.org/noid/1816.html - Cached
