Hi Everybody,
Just letting you all know that I am probably not going to be around on my blog / skype /other-web-based-service much at the moment. This is because the hard drive in my old laptop died on Thursday, it was making more noise than a the cast of Stomp! I took it to the apple […]

I am now running on Mac OS X 10.5 (aka Leopard) it is absolutely awesome!  I wasn’t sure that I would be, but as a developer and general mac user I do actually like it. It took me 40 minutes to install at 1pm this afternoon.
Here are my favourite non-dev features:

 Spaces: Having linux style workspace […]

Apple Laptops are really lovely, except for one thing:
Electric Power
The Reasons:

The iBook and PowerBook (G4s) had a lot of trouble with the connection into the laptop, the plugs easily broke. Two of mine had the same problem, although one still worked.
The new MacBooks and MacBook Pros have the “MagSafe” connections… which fixes the easily broke […]

Steve Wozniak was interviewed by the British Computer Society, the interview is available here: http://www.bcs.org/server.php?show=ConWebDoc.14923
(Steve Wozniak is a co-founder of Apple, Steve Jobs is the other one)
One thing I definitely do agree about is the career advice:
Try to know inside what your internal passion is. The thing you would do if you had no pay […]

Right, its not terribly new news. But I thought I would comment on it anyway, the guys at Sun said: THIS

Hopefully we can sway Sun to change their minds about the Java choice - but then they are the makers of Java. I think a lot of Mac developers […]

Hi all,
I was getting really annoyed that Safari was the default on Mac OS X. Don’t get me wrong, I do love Safari, I used it all the time once, and some of the features in the WebKit are looking fantastic. I just mostly use Firefox for things, I’ve managed to cope for at least […]

Apple iPhone
It is absolutely gorgeous! I want one, I really want one. A couple of weeks ago my uncle Pete said that one of his friends recently got employed at Apple to do designs for a new product (his old job was at a mobile phone company), Pete said that Apple were going to make […]

Howdie everyone!
If anyone has Objective-C experience and would like to be involved in an Open Source Project then please let me know. Thankies.
I need sleep… but there are more important things right now.
Talk soon

CSS is an important part of todays web, it is helping web developers separate design from content. Nearly all of CSS 2 can be viewed by most modern browsers. CSS 3 is here already! So how are our browsers coping?
The tests that I am running are from: http://www.geocities.com/seanmhall2003/css3/
I am doing some tests for CSS3 in […]

http://www.apple.com/xserve/
Right so the new Intel based Xserves are “5x faster than the Xserve G5″. Doesn’t make sense, the G5 based Xserve had 2 single core G5 processors. The new Xserves have 4 dual-core 64-bit Intel Xeons in… am I seeing something a bit weird here, wouldn’t that mean that the G5s are actually more powerful!!!!!
