@siracusa sorry for the weird question, but - looks like your old mainstay Italian restaurant recommendation didn’t survive covid. What’s your go to in Boston these days?
@gruber re: “hardware keeps a company honest”, this might be the one downside to the internet distribution era of software. Those Leopard, Keynote, or GarageBand bits did have to get to a stage good enough to ship on a disc.
@siracusa when you mentioned in passing having had the clear spherical speakers with your G4 Cube review unit, it reminded me of this detail from said review. RAM prices could be worse!
@gruber re iTools - I know they recovered afterwards, but that whole keynote until the Aqua demo is a collection of things which didn’t work out. 2000 was a bizarre year for Apple, a weird dip in the otherwise exponential graph
