Sorry for the OT but,


I saw close up, the demonstration of OS X and found it quite awesome. The

Apple guy flipped between 8.5 and X just through the App Menu. "If an

application crashes [in 8.5] simply quit 8.5 and restart it, without

restarting the computer or OS X". Our Unix guy was impressed at how

smoothly it was integrated as a Unix machine ... for all those guys who

like to type in commands and read in code. Oh, and the whole time while he

was demoing the OS, it was serving to another computer with the QT Server

component, streaming fullscreen video. I could just "feel" ease of use and

"pain-free computing" emmenate from the machine. The two fashion

statements  at NAB were the new SGI machines and the Blue G3s .... oh, and

HDTV flat screens.
