Apple finally releases Intel Core 2 Duo versions of the 15 and 17″ MacBook Pro. The concept of 200Gb of disk space and 3Gb of RAM is attractive, but we’ll have to see … I don’t think Santa is that generous. Unless someone wants a 5 month old 15″ MacBook Pro.
Myriad of things from Adobe. Apollo gets US$100m of backing from Adobe; but still no code to get your hands dirty. Flex Builder 2.0 for MacOS is out. Woot!
DigitalEditions comments from Ryan Stewart; in fact, Ryan has some excellent comments on Adobe Apollo too.
However, the biggest announcement is a parry to Microsoft’s XPS: Adobe Mars project. This is a representation of PDF in XML, but packed in a ZIP container. This one has been bumping around for a while: and it seems the SVG might just be getting another run at Adobe.
Just as Adobe starts to head toward the moon in the Apollo, we have another space metaphor to deal with: Mars. Or mabye it’s just a penchant for Roman Gods?
Fittingly, Mars is the Roman god of war.
Too much stuff, my brain hurts. Especially as I have some serious Javascript and Adobe Extendscript revolving in my head.
So now all I have to do is wait for my G4/1.5 flaptop to give it’s last breath. Insert “frowning hard at said flaptop now”.
Looks like Apple has found a way to stick it to the PC’s, properly.
Why the hell do you keep on saying GEEK instead of GREEK?????????
