      Apple's iPhone Shortage Is Probably Just That
      Apple has supply management down to a science. They also know how to get rid of old technology. Nothing apple lays around on the shelf there are always people who will buy a slower machine to save money. Jobs is not going to give up a month of sales in his flagship stores for nothing. Somethings up here my guess is the phones will ship about a day after the fcc approves them. if there's a problem id bet its the fcc is taking longer than they should with the final approval of the device and the bureaucrats are as usual gumming up the Jobster's schedule
      Im buying all i can hold the only dip i see is folks selling this month to pay there taxes

      Apple, Microsoft Run for the Clouds in the New Client Software War
      Apple has always been a software company that happens to make great hardware to run it on at one point they will realize this and allow the mac os to run on any hardware then the great GUI ( graphic user interface) will spread like wildfire the thing Redmond never gets is that instead of making us set things up for what we want to do from scratch they should have the os set to do what we most likely want to do and allow it to be changed from there. apple anticipates our needs so well and understands that there should be many paths to what you want to do with your machine that it will surely be the winner in the clouds or on the desktop someday soon. the corporate world is just starting to see that it is better to have someone creating a document than calling for the it department to figure out how to open one. productivity will eventually give apple the edge.

      Contrary to Some Opinions, Apple Doesn't Do Loss Leaders
      I'm much more interested in why al gore exercised his options for 1000 shares today!

      jeez i did not say it was a ferrari i said if there were two cars traveling down the information highway the factors controlling the speed is the speed limit and the traffic jobs rightly balanced the power vs the milage for everyday tasks to come up with not the fastest laptop in the traffic jam but the one that fills the real needs of MOST laptop users most of us are not Herb Hancock mixing 90 audio tracks on the plane to his next gig we are trying to type a report you don't need a ferrari to do that but you don't want to run out of (now pay attention here… get this its a metaphor…) "gas".

      Defending Apple's MacBook Air
      the fact is as a graphics artist i do all my heavy lifting on my desktop. i want the biggest screen i can get and no restrictions on where my keyboard or mouse is i need my wacom pen. my laptop has always been for working on copy or surfing the web. if a processor cant keep up with my typing speed i have a problem. i however have never been able to type faster than any computer i have ever had. The internet is another story but the speed a computer goes on the internet has nothing to do with its processor its the data pipe that determines the speed (the old analogy is a Ferrari and a Volkswagen on the long island expressway are both doing about 25 miles per hour) whats important about this product is that id does not need to be hauled around in its own backpack its going to tuck in to your briefcase and not make a lump or weigh 200 pounds it WILL run a spreadsheet faster than you can add 2 and 2 and it will let you get to notes and work on documents wherever you are with out causing a major scene taking it out of your backpack or those goofy padded carrying cases. for people who want to be mobile its a slam dunk . the clunky cheap plastic cases on a dell look like one of my old kids toys and i am certain the slightest mishap would smash them to pieces as fast as my old transistor radio did when it took a tumble in my car. this is a product any one who likes to be sharp and practical will want to have apple will sell lots of them and the little superdrive for 99 bucks is cool too i had one i bought from apple years ago and it has been very handy but if i don't need it leaving it home would be fine. by the way my new os is connecting to our windows network at work perfectly and with no input from me , one day i noticed every computer in our network (that was shared) just sitting there waiting for my click. if i can use the cd drive in them from the air laptop it would be a miracle of engineering as i can barely get them to work in the wintel boxes that house them. the sales of these laptops will be way better than the naysayers predict (think students carrying less weight from class to class)

      Apple Seeking a Reunion With Adobe?
      I use adobe products and apple products day in and day out and although they exist in the same realm like thoughts and feelings they are two different animals. Apple has always been a software company that has not realized it, if they want tons more cash all they have to do is sell the OS to run on windows intel boxes.As an adobe user the recent "upgrade" into the macromedia product line has left me with a steep and unprofitable learning curve I for one was hoping the macromedia code superiority would be integrated into a well designed adobe interface (hardly a "dinosaur" ) there is much more work to be done integrating those two software packages. Apple, although cross platform on some applications lately, does not like to play well with windows (for good reasons). I think it unlikely that they would want to acquire Adobe. Having said that, the thought of Steve Blamer getting this bee in his bonnet would be unthinkable… Microsoft Creative Suite! a perfect oxymoron!
