WWDC 2009

[MrToad]

Anyone else watching this?

[inabis]

liveblog on the Giz...you know it!!

So far:

Cheaper Macbooks, MBP now in 13 inch and Snow Leopard looks cool-hasnt impressed me....yet

[quagmire]

$1699 15" MBP OH YEAH! Too bad it kills the 9600M.

[MrToad]

Watching it on Giz as well. I don't care for Safari 4, I doubt it'll be as good as Firefox or Chrome when its released for Macs. What do you think?

[quagmire]

I am running Safari 4 beta and I like it. Although I have always preferred Safari over FireFox though.

[MrToad]

Interesting. Safari always reminds me of using IE lol. I'm just glad Snow Leopard is happening.

[inabis]

I've been using safari 4 for a while now...it's really fast! Plus after I started using it i rarely see the beachball. When I used FF my comp would outta the blue just go crazy


Snow Leopard-wasn't impressed really. For 30 bucks, switching to a 64 bit system is a STEAL. They got my money. Don't even need to think about it

[quagmire]

I prefer FireFox when running in XP. Safari for Windows doesn't give me the same feel as it does in OS X.

[quagmire]

$29 for Snow Leopard upgrade from Leopard!

[MrToad]

Damn good deal!

[inabis]

I do miss the ad block from FF. If FF wasn't such a memory hog I'd be still using it.

FINALLY THE IPHONE

[MrToad]

Thats where I think Chrome for macs will blow up.

[inabis]

Yeah, I'm waiting for Chrome just for a proper ad block. And the Anti Phising tech. Safarai is apparently not that great at security....but that's what "I've heard"

On another note. Took em long enough to get Push on my damn phone. Wasn't this supposed to happen with the original metal iPhone????

There is adblock for Safari. While they say it works on Safari 3, it works well on Safari 4 as well.

[inabis]

I have that installed but a lot of the banner ads and pop ups still show up. Nothing compares to FF adbock

[MrToad]

What the hell is cocoa touch? Wow. 3.0 end of summer?! The itouch users like me will get it even later than that wtf..

[inabis]

“AT&T will be ready to support MMS later this summer.” Fail. FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL.

HAHAHAHAHA sooo true

Cocoa is the language they use to program...finder is written in it

Cocoa is Apple's name for the collection of frameworks, APIs, and accompanying runtimes that make up the development layer of Mac OS X

[quagmire]

How much do you want to bet AT&T will charge extra for MMS or it will count as 10 SMS's?

[inabis]

Tethering isnt supported yet either. BOOOOOOOOOOOO AT&T shame on you!!!!!!!!!!!

They want to charge an extra 30 bucks for tethering. I'm sure there will be a way around it....I hope so!
