Dell unhooks Windows from desktops. What, no Windows? Next month the PC maker will give bulk business customers a choice of buying desktops without Microsoft's operating system, or any other, pre-installed. [CNET News.com]

This is the first Good Thing (tm) to come out of Microsoft's anti trust suit. This is what my company will buy next time.

Forbes: Apple unlikely to move to Intel [The Macintosh News Network]

Of course not. It doesn't make any sense. If people believe that Intel is better than PowerPC despite all evidence against it, fine, let them buy Intel. But you get either Linux or Windows. If you want Mac OS X you have to get a PowerPC. Period.

Doctorow on the Demise of the Digital Hub [Slashdot]

Greatly exaggerated. Hollywood forgets that there is a rest of the World out there. This rest of the world will not deploy HDTV any time soon. It's also full of hackers. The Internet Information revolution will not stop just because the US bails out...

Handspring/Sprint PCS Treo 300 not Mac-compatible [MacSlash: A daily dose of Macintosh News and Discussion]

Handspring has to clear this out. They have not officially supported Palm Desktop X for use with Visors, though a lot of people, myself included, have been using it with no problems. Now they say, the new Treo is not Mac compatible... Why not? They don't explain. This could spell doom for the company as its most fervent users are Mac Users and the company sold itself as a Mac Supporter since the beginning. Unless they will be fully compatible with iSync in a month! That would be brilliant!
