Macworld announcements "lame"
Posted by Sandy
From AnchorDesk:
"Of course I had my spies at the keynote, so I know there was a big line outside the event. But since I stayed safely at home I remained beyond the influence of the well-known Steve Jobs Reality Distortion Field. Thus, I see the keynote for what it really was: evidence that Apple has finally succumbed to the malaise that hit the rest of the PC business two or three years ago. Apple's Macworld announcements were in the lame-but-best-they-could-do category."
Whenever I read David Coursey's passive-aggressive Mac rants, I suspect he's secretly trolling for angry Mac users. Maybe his pay is based on ZDNet's ad revenue, which is based on the number of people who visit his site.
There's one interesting bit: he compares Apple's new GarageBand application to a $400 Windows program called Acid Pro. Folks actually at Macworld have been comparing it to a $500 program called Cubase.
Apple is charging $49 for iLife '04, which includes GarageBand and four other popular applications.
Ho-hum. How lame.
