[asif786]

hey,

bbc have posted their coverage of the tiger launch party at the apple store london.

the piece was good, and objective; unlike some other articles where you can tell there is a clear bias one way or another..

edit: subjective changed to 'objective'

I think you mean 'objective' rather than 'subjective' - although I do agree that it was a good report.

hmmm not sure what to make of that article, sure they aren't putting down Tiger, but they are poking fun at the mac faithful, and they dont seem to think that the new features are all that great, and they go so far to say that Konfubulator is equal to Dashboard, when we all know that the widgets are an idea that dates back even further in mac history......

eh, maybes its because i haven't slept in 24 hours im begining to get a bit cranky

Stephen Cole (the presenter) certainly puts the Konfabulator point to the Apple rep who, in response, offers a decent defence of Dashboard by pointing out that it has its origins in the (pre-Konfabulator) Desktop Accessories of OS9. A fair question, and a fair answer, I suppose!
