I suppose I should say something regarding all the news out of Cupertino today. Specifically, I’m pleased that Apple (or I suppose Mr Jobs) finally admitted that the Rosetta handwriting recognition from the once-proud Newton is actually good enough to include in the latest version of OS X. It interesting to note that it took them just four freaking years to find a way to jimmy it into a “robust and modern” operating system. And I didn’t even take exception to the jab ol’ Stevie Wonderful took at my favourite hand held platform. Something to the effect that they were finally “getting something out of the hundreds of millions of dollars of Newton technology…” Smart ass. Oh, there are a lot of other chewy Jaguarlicious goodies that I’m all over about as well, but… hello, what’s this? A rack mount server solution to be announced next week, you say? Be still my beating heart. Be still.
