USINGPOND Actually, it does make sense. When Microsoft puts out the Universal Binary, it will be an upgrade, not an update. Office ain't some $25 piece of shareware, you know. Word and Excel are much more powerful than most people need to use, but those of us who actually need the advanced features appreciate that power and acknowledge that a large, old code base can't be turned on a dime. If you think another app is better, you really should be using it instead. (8/8/2006, Version: 11.2.6) Oh right. I suppose all those other apps that HAVE been universalized are just $25 pieces of shareware (like, for example, ALL APPLE APPS.) And remember how quickly Office was carbonized? Pretty airtight argument you've got there. And another app is better (iWork). What exactly are these "advanced features" of Word, out of curiosity? The ability to look really really ugly?

PSEUDOPROMETHEUS Actually, one could generally assume that Apple had a longer time to turn their applications into universal binaries because Apple knew about their impending switch to Intel processors long before Microsoft did. Even then, not all official Apple apps were universal when Intel macs started shipping (i.e. Final Cut Pro and Aperture). Have patience, the transition to UB takes time. : )

USINGPOND Thank GOD! Finally, a crossword client that spells "crosswords" the wrong way. Sometimes I have difficulty using clients that spell it correctly; they just don't fit my needs as someone who likes to replace "s" with "z" and "c" with "k". | |

XENOPHILE Agreed, it's a stupid name. Too many people think it's clever to misspell the name of a product or business, when actually it's lazy and unoriginal. I'm trying to picture the developer naming this app: "hmmm, what to call this? Well it does crossword puzzles, so I'll call it 'Crosswords'. No, wait! That's too lame, it needs a twist, something to grab users' attention. Uhhhhh....Yes, that's IT! I shall call it 'KrossWordz'! Oh how clever I am!"

USINGPOND A pretty rad-looking launcher. A friend with a PC said to me, "I wish I could do that," so extra points. But one question: what's up with the PlayStation sorting? I mean, most people use disk images right? You can't open those with the emulator (PCSX or Flarestorm).

EMULAUNCH There has been some work recently to make isos launch in PCSX without having to mount them. I can't confirm wether or not its working yet but you can find more info here: http://www.emuscene.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2226 I left Playstation in there so the day that you start PS games directly from the Finder then EMUlaunch will be able to launch them as well.
