The difference between Cocoa and Carbon apps
MacCentral: The difference between Cocoa and Carbon apps
Wow, MacCentral actually wrote a great (seemingly) original article!
Update: I spoke too soon. I should have known better. It wasn't an original article. It's basically a copy of this article on ZDNet. Sigh. MacCentral.... say no more. (figuratively and literally)
BTW, OutlineXplorer is a Cocoa app.
Quote: "Cocoa developers could literally be ten times more efficient and more productive in building software." If, in the future, Apple should decide to release OS X for x86 or other platforms, applications developed with Cocoa will work on the new platforms.
Yup.

Ford has a horrible track record with fire-related things lately, but here they go again! ;-)

Another nice thing about Conversant is you don't have to wait for the vendor to need an oft-requested feature themselves before they implement it.

Biggggaaa hard drive
My hard drive is filling up. I'm gonna get me a 60-gigger from Costco later today.
Alex, who has one, said, and I'm paraphrasing, "screw MP3, with a 60 GB drive go WAV all the way!" ;-)
I don't need all that space, but buying a smaller drive is just a waste of money.
Conversant upgrade
Macrobyte has been rolling out new features and upgrades to Conversant today. Seth tells me the weblog plugin was optimized somewhat, but he didn't think the difference would be noticable.
Free-Conversant Support: Loads of New Stuff -- "Prepare to be overwhelmed." That's a big rollout!
Maybe it's just me, but I notice a big difference in rendering speed for weblog pages. Surfing through the archive calendar is way way faster. What do you think, is it faster for you too?
