  1. Can anyone see it? My quicktime just sits there procrastinating… 🙁

    Mac mini – 1GB ram is a bit steep.. 🙁 but other wise ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”smile” style=”border:0;” />

  2. Steadfastly failing to work here, but that’s the same with the Apple Store here too. The Mac Web’s gone crazy. ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”smile” style=”border:0;” />

  3. Sometimes, the quality of the stream depends on what type of connection you have QuickTime set to use.

    If you’re on a modem, it may have automatically chosen “28.8/33.6Kbps Modem” when it was installed, which might well default to an audio only stream.

    Try setting the connection rate higher in the “Connection” tab of the QuickTime Preferences pane (or QuickTime’s Preferences dialog, if you’re on XP).

  5. Subject to the RDF, this was an awesome keynote: innovative products tinted in a family-values hue. Apple truly owns the terms <style</i>. It’s hard to imagine why anyone would stay with Wintel, but stay they do … to their great loss.

    More interesting is what the keynote implies about where Apple is headed: straight into the thick of the digital world with perhaps the only compelling suite of digital lifestyle apps and hopefuly hardware still-to-come. There’s certainly more power in Apple software than a mere mortal like myself could use.

    Kunitake Ando did all right with a few jokes thrown in for good measure. The question is whether some of the RDF stuck or not. Sony could learn a lesson here: It’s better to partner with Apple than to compete against it and find itself abandoning all hope.

    Lost in the ether — and I truly mean lost — is Microsoft’s multimedia strategy. Gate’s performance in the Conan O’Brien show was pathetic. He sat there looking like a beaten old man, stabbing the buttons of the remote control in futility. In contrast, Jobs always looks like the man in control, touting all the features of Apple’s innovative offerings as if he had been intimately involved in their creation.

    Apple users have never had it so good … with one caveat: you have to be using the latest software.
