Kupujte hrvatsko :)
Nadam se da će posjetit Apple na postojanje Hrvatske pa da će se Apple malo više potruditi oko našeg tržišta. Ono bar Apple Care i @ na tipkuši, ne tražim puno :) znam da su za ne postojanje iTunes Music Storea krivi ovi naši iz zampa.
Zašto sad ovo spominju kao nešto novo? Pa takve "kaveze" za aplikacije su uveli tamo s početkom BSD-a. Iz BSD-a deriviran darwin pa iz njega Mac OS X. Niđe zeve.
Sretno, a mozda mu ni ne treba sreca kad ocigledno ima znanje
Krstić o Mac OS Xu
"After 12 years of almost exclusive use of free software, I switched to Mac OS X," Krstić wrote.
After describing problems with "vendors not releasing documentation that would make it possible for Linux to play well with their hardware," he added, "Until the day comes when hardware vendors and free software developers find themselves holding hands and spontaneously bursting into one giant orgiastic Kumbaya, that's the world we live in. So in the meantime, I switched to OS X and find it to be an overwhelmingly more enjoyable computing experience."
"My theory is that technical people, especially when younger, get a particular thrill out of dicking around with their software," Krstić said. "Much like case modders, these folks see it as a badge of honor that they spent countless hours compiling and configuring their software to oblivion. Hey, I was there too. And the older I get, the more I want things to work out of the box. Ubuntu is getting better at delivering that experience for novice users. Serious power users seem to find that OS X is unrivaled at it."

Krstic is my new hero:
- Slamming the pollyanna-ish notion of free open-source software ever being more than a niche market.
- Slamming OLPC for having a [dumb] business model.
- Slamming OLPC's founder (Negroponte) as not being primarily interested in education or the large-scale deployment of OLPC laptops.
And my favorite, the whole part where he talks about it being fun to mess with computers as a kid, but that as grownups people want computers that just work.
Is "Ivan Krstic" croatian for "Steve Jobs Jr"?
Već sam pomislio da su pokrenuli kampanju "One apple per child". Da onda odu u Afriku i počnu dijeliti jabuke iz kašeta.
Gore navedeni članak kaže da je Steve Jobs ponudio OLPC projektu besplatno Mac OS i besplatnu tehničku pomoć no ovi su ga odbili u korist Linuxa da bi na kraju završili sa Windows XPom koji im Microsoft naplaćuje te povećava cijenu uređaja za 10%
To je prodano Microsoftu. Čitao sam članak u kojem se razotkriva veza čileanskog predsjednika i MS-a. Naime, on je "banao" linux sa OLPC u Čileu onako iz vedra neba. To je bila prva pošiljka OLPC koja nije imala instaliran linux. Samo nije mi jasno što ne prebace olpc na arm. Doduše tad nebi bio pc ali bi se riješili sveprisutne pohlepne ruke MS-a.
