Dear Reader,
After just one day at the Mac OS X Conference in Santa Clara, I can tell you that Mac OS X seems to be the new common ground for computing.
While sitting in the break area amid glowing Apples in all shapes and forms, I overheard conversations about Java, Objective-C, Perl, AppleScript, networking, Web Services, Digital Rights Management, Apache, Terminal hacks, and a host of other cool discussion topics. It's becoming clear to me that if it can be done, it can be done on a Mac.
I hope you have time to visit our conference coverage page and read a little more about what I'm saying here. Better yet, if you're in the Silicon Valley neighborhood, stop by the conference and pick up a day pass.
