MDN: enough of the ads already! This site is getting harder and harder to read. Putting ads in text ereas does not help with legibility. Apple is all about good design. Why dont you design this site better?
Great. SAS really needs to do better… support for JMP using Cocoa rather than porting to Linux…
One app at a time! Good to see more enterprise apps coming over to the Side of Truth and Honesty (or maybe it’s just “Easy Computing”).
why does this site look like it was designed by microsoft?
