News for Saturday, 25 October 2008

I'd like to thank Apple for its new MacBook Pro: From the time I started using it, I became a real Hero!
I've traveled by train, did watched movies and guess what, I hit the screen and got a part in all of them! It certainly was kind of an extra part for sure, but hey, that's a start. I've spend most of my time staring at my own ghost shadows, overhanging all the other actors.
All of this may be ironic, reflexions of the new MacBook Pro's screen are quiet stong and harsh. You can get use to it but they're always here.
PS: While waiting for Apple to propose a less glossy screen, we're gonna petition the French Railroad Compagny (SNCF) for them to add personal blinds in every cars, for we to get a bit of darkness without bothering other passengers.

A short news to mention that yesterday, Apple released the Mac OS X version 10.6 Snow Leopard build 10A190 to developers via its ADC network. As indicated by Apple, this is a preview build of Snow Leopard. The disk image weight 6.7 GB. As pre-release software is Apple Confidential information and ADC regulations indicate that unauthorized distribution of pre-release software or disclosure of information relating to pre-release software (including the distribution of screen shots) are forbidden we will not publish more info. But it is good to know that Snow Leopard is on track, even though its official release date remains unknown (WWDC 2009?).
