Give Up On Vista Ad

Filed under: Apple Related, Microsoft Related — Buddy Toups @ 1:12 pm
Apple Inc.'s Web Ad 'Give Up On Vista'

URL where it was found: http://www.cnet.com/windows-vista.html

This is about the funniest web ad I’ve ever seen. This is one of the latest Apple Inc. ads that rubs Mac OS X Leopard success in Microsoft’s face. Many OEMs/PC manufactures have recently start offering customers the choice of Windows XP or Windows Vista pre-installed on their new computer.

The irony about this ad is the ad program on CNET must of pickup on the keyword Vista and is now running the ad on CNET’s main Microsoft Windows Vista main page.

My New Mac Mini Intel Core 2 Duo

Filed under: Apple Related, Microsoft Related, Technology — Buddy Toups @ 5:31 am

I just bought the new mac mini 2.0Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 1GB stock RAM. Its a very nice machine fast and responsive. The thing I really love about the new macs with Intels is the freedom to test a Windows only browser at near native speeds. I hated Virtual PC but thats the only way I could test my website designs but now Mac Intel with Parallels software its so easy and fast. Even with Firefox and Safari gaining market share, the majority of web surfers still use Windows with Internet Explorer and developers / designers should always thoroughly test this platform.

Photoshop CS3 Beta with Mac Intel Native Support?

Filed under: Adobe Photoshop, Apple Related, Graphic Design, Technology, Web Development — Buddy Toups @ 3:34 pm

Imagine that I just got my company to poke out money for CS2 upgrade and know it looks like CS3 is just around the corner.

Photoshop CS3 Beta

“AppleInsider adds to its previous report that they are currently expecting a Photoshop beta program to begin this Friday for current CS2 owners. Specifically, the program is said to be announced by Adobe CEO Bruce Chizen during the companys quarterly conference call, and will be limited to the standard edition of Photoshop rather than the entire Adobe Creative Suite.

ThinkSecret has also chimed in on the matter, saying similarly that the beta program would be limited to Photoshop. Also, while reports had said that Photoshop CS3 “simply flies” on Intel-based systems, ThinkSecret claims that much of that speed was attributed to OpenGL zooming, a feature that has been trimmed from the beta and may not even make the final release.”
