MacSlash: A Daily Dose of Mac News & Discussion

We will only send a single email notifying you of when we re-launch MacSlash. Only a real dirtbag would sell, rent, trade or give away your email address. We’re not dirtbags, so you’ve got nothing to worry about. Hell, with our track record, chances are we’ll never even send you a single email.

Already a member of the old MacSlash?
We’re expecting that we will be able to transfer your old account to our new system and will do so if we can. More on that will be posted later.

  Interesting. If free developer account is out, so how do we allow multiple developers in one company to get access to stuff? (via @danwood)

  Two big downers to the new Mac dev program for me: 1) no hardware discount 2) no OS X Server evaluation serial. Ugh. (via @incanus77)

  Fucking Apple is discontinuing the ADC hardware discount. Assholes. Fuck you. Piss on your own developers. (via @lapcat)

  RT @jonlech Going by fanboy logic, Apple's patent lawsuit against HTC means Apple can't compete and the Nexus One is better than the iPhone.

  Apple iSlate Tablet prediction, same as the MacSlash iPod Prediction: Overpriced, under-featured, I'd be surprised if they sold two of them.

  So, Apple bought Lala, a "cloud based music service" whatever the hell that means. My guess? Apple's just clearing out new competition.

  Woah. The Apple Store is down. At 9:15PM Eastern time. Either they're getting a jump on a Tuesday morning announcement, or something's b0rkd

  Just got an email about NSOctober from the Nat'l Symphony Orch and was confused about out why they were sending email about Mac Programming.

  "Lack of netbooks hurts Apple with students" Maybe elementary school students. They're the only people with fingers small enough to use one.

  Just registered a new URL for shortening MacSlash URL's, akin to @gruber's http://✪df.ws. Can't wait to unveil it soon.

  Does anyone else find the "there's an app for that" ads even more infuriating with each new dumb-ass app rejection by Apple?

  Finding out that Windows 7 has been released to manufacturing is kinda like learning your ex-gf's brother's dog had puppies. (via @ravenme)

  Congrats to @ccgus. He's donated ~100,000 Acorn licenses to the state of Maine for their education laptops. Lucky kids!
