I have been using AppFresh for a while and it is a very cool program, like most things on OSX.

Funnily my latest iMac is spent mostly in Vista as I use it for gaming but that’s life.

Some of those comments are gold…

One of the viewers that was commenting down the bottom said “hey he swore that Aussie” because you said shit. What a pussy!

One of the reasons I love Ubuntu and other Debian based distributions of Linux is aptitude, the package manager. It alerts me whenever an application package has been updated and I simply click the taskbar icon and install the packages or type: ‘aptitude update’ to stay up to date. Alternatively a cron job does it automatically for me… to remove ‘aptitude remove package’, to search for apps ‘aptitude search keyword’, to install ‘aptitude install package’.
Problem is, just like with Windows Update, sometimes things break. It’s also not fun being a second-class app/plugin/driver citizen either… not for the faint hearted. Linux is NOT ready for the desktop.

As for Vista, I see Microsoft losing all their developers to OSX because of the open source web boom and middle ground OSX/proprietary hardware takes when it comes to the integrated basic user/web development experience. That can only mean @frankarr has lots of work to do. I’m even noticing Mac’s in the Green Guide selling at places I wouldn’t have imagined not long ago, and they’re coming down in prices…
