Written by a guy who has never used an iphone, probably never seen it our even touched it. So basically it was all speculation. What a guy.

My list of five things that suck about the iphone go like this:

1. I am not waking up at 830 to drive down to the apple store to wait in line to get an iphone.
2. OK, maybe i will tomorrow.
3. But I am going to have to really think about it.
4. Fine i will wait in line for it.
5. No Cut and Paste.

Don’t you wish that apple came out with this thing before the iphone? Or is that the natural progression of apple products? Computer, iPod, iTV, iPhone, then iTablet? You need the ones before for the itablet to come out i guess.

If you don’t know safari was just released for windows. Just go to apples website and go get it. But i have major qualms with it:

1. It is too pretty for windows. The text is so clean looking!
2. The close window button is on the right side! Ahhhh, I am used to it being on the left side like a mac program should be.
3. It is just to pretty looking for windows. It should not be so pretty. Look at it, it looks so nice.
4. It runs really nice on windows. If it ever crashes on me I will cry.
5. It doesn’t have firebug installed for it.

Ya, no real qualms. Just awesome, where is iphoto, where is imovie, where is mail?

I like the idea behind . But i don’t think i can get to using it. I think i might be to old school, and i would figure that the new kids would start using it.

I like using bbedit, transmit and notepad2.exe, Those are the programs that i use to do web design. Those programs are small, open up quick and i have no problems with them ever crashing. I am not saying that coda is a bloated fat program. I just don’t trust it right now. I like the simplicity of those programs.

Eh, im just an old fart.

This is a call out to all Macintosh OS X users out there. Why do you still use stuffit?

There was a reason back in the days of Mac OS 9 that you needed stuffit. But now that OS X includes its own “archiving” program. There is no need for stuffit anymore. Zip is a valid way to archive things and mostly every computer will be able to open it.

If you don’t know how to zip something in Mac OS X here is a quick tutorial:
1. Find the file/folder that you want to zip.
2. Right click on the file/folder.
3. Select create archive of…
4. Done.

I know stuffit has a free program of its Stuffit Deluxe program, but i don’t understand why they are still in business.
