I think Steve Winter should get more credit for his work. It is amazing. I wonder what kind of camera he uses?

isnt there a way to see what camera was used by seeing the properties or something? I know when you upload it to deviant art it shows what camera was used
 
There is nothing illegal about having transmission!


I didn't say there was.

But everyone knows its used to download BitTorrent's, so not only is he flashing off his personal email to the www. but in this current climate, where illegal downloaders are being clamped down on, I'd say he didn't think before he took a screen shot of his desktop and posted it up on here - Hence being a bit of a Bozo...

Just made me laugh, that's all... ;)
 
Oh it probably can. I know for a fact that the Windows version of Photoshop CS 4 does just that; detects the version of the OS (32-bit or 64-bit) and installs the appropriate version.

Apple (and 3rd party developers) usually ship "universal" applications that contain x86 (Intel) and PowerPC binary segments. This same feature is also used to include x86-64 and PowerPC 64 (aka 64b version). This allows you to run the same application on various hardware without having to worry about an installer, etc.

You can use the terminal (or Finder) to understand what segments an application contains. /me points at file

For example...

Code:
$ file /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes 
/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes (for architecture ppc):	Mach-O executable ppc
/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes (for architecture i386):	Mach-O executable i386
 
Anyone have any thoughts on how well this OS takes advantage of eight cores?

Multi-core is a, if not the, primary focus of Snow Leopard both in terms of the OS itself, the services it provides and enabling developers to more easily leverage multiple cores (not just talking CPU cores either).
 
64bit of iTunes, iLife and iWork will come out whenever they want, they are not dependent on Snow Leopard. The only thing that's dependent of SL is GCD/OpenCL. Remember that 64bit apps can run on Leopard, so they could release 64bit version of those anytime they want. I don't see any reason to have 64bit for iWork but it's still nice to have it. iTunes requires a complete rewrite to have 64bit as it still have a lot of carbon code in the current version.

I don't expect to see any GCD/OpenCL for those software for at least another year. iWork and iLife '10 will come out in Jan (release history shows they always release yearly in Jan except back in a special media event in Aug '07).


Also, IIRC iTunes is not fully 64bit on Windows, it still has 32bit exe showing on the Task manager whenever somebody has it under 64bit OS.


Stickies was introduced in Mac OS 7.5

I couldn't remember before 10.x, i just default to sticking with Mac OS X as default since it is the first major change from the past to modern for Apple.
 
i would say he probably used a 1 series. Something with lightning fast focus and high resolution.

Snow Leopard is SO much better than Leopard was in the last beta stage.
Cannot wait for the final release.
Must...keep...hand...from...installing...SL beta...on...main drive.:D
