funny how we've had widgets post-beta for over a year now. on macintosh.



not that windows is, you know, STEALING MACS IDEAS AND PUTTING THEM INTO A TERRIBLY WRITTEN OS or anything...

 

OS X Didn't originally come up with the idea...

In fact most of the features OS X users have, were "Inspired" by third party programs...

I own a "20 iMac, it's great & everything (I think it's better than XP) But Windows Vista has features that Apple hasn't actually made use of...

 

Plus I can guarantee you the next version of os x will be implementing a lot of things which windows vista orginiated. Its just buisness.

 

Very well said, exactly my thoughts.
