ramblings from the minds of children

blech:

Apple appear to have decided that what the Finder needs is Cover Flow.

No, really.

Yes, that is the Finder. Goodness knows if that means it's "fixed".

jerakeen:

Hey, at least it's Unified.

blech:

If it's as flaky at remembering state as iTunes 7 is, it's going to piss me off more than the 10.4 Finder.

Which in turn is more than the 10.3 Finder did.

Can we see a pattern here yet, boys and girls?

jerakeen:

You're just old. It's not spatial any more.

blech:

Spatial was good. The world is spatial.

jerakeen:

That's not just boring old cover flow, either. You can play movies and look at pdfs and all sorts of non-file-browsery things

blech:

You can play movies full screen, apparently. Hopefully this will kill the idiotic QuickTime Pro tax.

jerakeen:

oooh, no more cd-burning for bootcamp install. I likes.

having to burn a driver CD beforehand is just irritating.

blech:

We could have started a new entry.

jerakeen:

Meh.

blech:

You know, if Steve can do a whole bullet point on Dashboard, surely we can get a new entry ripping it for its UScentricity?

I mean, he just spent a minute outlining how you can find out movie times and buy tickets. Unfortunately my nearest "theater" is 3000 miles away.

Gee, thanks!

jerakeen:

that's a really old dilbert.

-trackback-

We hate you all. Yes, especially you. Sod off and DIE
