    Survey says Mac users more likely to buy music online.
    Mac users also are willing to pay a premium for pretty hardware that is slower than an equally priced PC model.

    Silverlight, WMV, WMA, etc. Microsoft makes these things up for their proprietary advantages. Not because they’re going to be better formats.

    I hope that they restore the “third party cookie” blocking feature to the Firefox menus, in some version of FF3. I’m still using version 1.5 until they do.

    Microsoft won’t accept the award. But that clueless PC guy on the Mac Tv commercials would.

    IE8? Just another PR bumping of the version numbers, to keep up with Apple and Open Source software. When IE reaches version “10”, they’ll make a big deal about it by calling it “IEX”! Which could be out late next year, at this rate. What’s next WMP12?!
