Outlook for Mac is promised to be a complete rewrite, so it's the "same thing" as Entourage only in that it's the mail/calendar/contact app component of Microsoft Office. The program itself could be quite different.

Perhaps because XHTML 2 is now officially dead.

Except there's no good evidence here to show that the NTSB is in any way being political; the statement isn't political in and of itself, and there's no evidence that there was any political pressure anywhere being applied.

Here's the facts: other organizations investigating the Air France crash have pointed to possible airspeed malfunctions as a contributing cause. Meanwhile, the NTSB has looked into similar matters and has announced it's looking into two completely separate cases in which it appears that the same kind of aircraft may have had airspeed indicator malfunctions. It has nothing directly to do with the Air France case.

And re: MACC's observation below, the NTSB reported that due to a flaw in the Boeing 777's engines there was an urgent need for a component redesign. I don't see how that's shifting blame away from Boeing at all. (And the British AAIB announced that the incident was probably caused by an accumulation of ice in the fuel system and also caused for a system redesign; that's not wildly different from the NTSB's statement.)

Yes, the next three Pixar films will be sequels, if you ignore Newt, which is the next movie after Toy Story 3 and is coming out in 2011. and the Bear and the Bow, which is coming out Christmas 2011. Other than that, the original post is exactly correct.

Every time I see an article about Apple which gets basic facts about the company's policies wrong, I get just a little more annoyed.

Seriously. There is no "90-day" refund policy. Read the iTunes Store terms and conditions -- no mention of a 90-day period. In fact, the only mention of refunds is that you can get a refund if they can't deliver the purchase to you; otherwise, as it clearly states, "no refunds are available."

Moreover, there are thousands of app store applications and developers. Is there a single one who has complained about this refund policy screwing them over?

Methinks overheated rhetoric like the one in this post and tomhudson's below about how developing for the iPhone used to be fun but is now "about money and control and refunds and chargebacks" is farcical.

Most Mac users won't even visit the Safari page, however, since all Mac users get stable Safari updates bundled into Mac OS X updates. So the folks seeking out the Safari webpage to download it are probably looking for the beta version.

The lesson, which any Mac developer with a clue has known for years, is that if you want to work with your own customized perl installation, install your own Perl, don't extent the preinstalled version which Apple might change in a future update. Since installing perl on a Mac involves, basically a) downloading the software; b) typing "sh Configure -de"; c) typing "make"; d) typing "make install." Not too tough, really.
