Apple meeting
So I met with Apple today in Boston and got the rundown on their Macworld announcements and up-close demos. The conclusion is that these guys just get it. Mac OS X 10.2 ("Jaguar") rocks, the junk mail stuff in Mail.app is awesome (so is the extensible new Address Book), iSync and iCal are unbelievably good, QuickTime 6 is OK (MPEG-4 is good, but not as good as WMV8, Real9, or even the old QuickTime/Sorenson format), Sherlock 3 is surprisingly powerful, and the new hardware (iPod and 17" iMac) are too cool for words. And let's not forget iTunes 3, Rendezvous, and and Finder search and spring-loaded folders! Yikes. I'm becoming an Apple guy.
