No flame wars here. Just to mention that some of the software I use on the PC side isn't ready for Windows 7 yet.

"If one little kid doing a Windows 7 is cute and adorable, then a hundred little kids will be a hundred times as cute and adorable. Bing the Internet. It'll make people forget googling? Right? Are you with me, guys? Awesome. Good job, everyone."

Unless I missed it posted elsewhere, I would like to see an Accounting 101 article on the new accounting rules and their impact on Apple's reporting. In reply to: "Apple: Best Mac, iPhone quarterly sales ever"

It will be interesting to see how many people pony up full price for an SP release. I think Apple beat them on goodwill with only pricing an SP at $30. In reply to: "Will Apple keep up the momentum?"
