Colin Charles Agenda

pre-WWDC

So, everyone’s wondering what Steve Jobs is going to announce tomorrow, besides Tiger (OS X 10.4), iPod on your BMW, and even Airport Express – all been announced, so what’s new? Speculation of a new XCode maybe…

Otherwise, interesting comments like “Redmond, start your photocopiers”, or even “Redmond, we have a problem” in relation to Tiger exists (shots). If Apple is competing with Microsoft in terms of their OS platform, why haven’t they made a mention of Linux? After all, Linux has overtaken OS X on the desktop market – Linux is more a competitor than Microsoft is, to Apple at least, wouldn’t it be? Microsoft notice, Apple don’t?

In terms of usability, some ground-breaking stuff being presented (well, previewed), and the future, seems to be full-control via a mouse. Very cool stuff, GNOME needs this sort of thing, heck, The GIMP needs this sort of thing.
