This probably quenches the rumors that Intel <a href=\"http:\/\/daringfireball.net\/2005\/06\/see_you_intel\">will build PowerPC processors<\/a>.\n<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theappleblog.com\/2005\/05\/27\/boolean-searches-in-spotlight\/\">Boolean searches<\/a> in Spotlight enhances it with NOT\/OR searches &#8211; useful.

I think  they&#8217;d be winning some design awards sometime soon. For those of us using Linux, there&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mcatalog.net\/\">mCatalog<\/a> (requires Mono). All this uses the exposed <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/browse.html\/102-1053031-1904902?node=3435361\">Amazon Web Services API<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Popped Mono on OS X. To use gtk#, I need X11? Eh, it isn&#8217;t native, but it works right. Well, here&#8217;s news, Mono is not cross-platform, either. Mac users hate X11 apps. Why do you think we have NeoOffice\/J being more popular than OpenOffice.org\/X11? So besides wxWindows, we may never have a true cross-platform GUI out there (and its not even a pretty solution).<\/li>\n<li>Been playing with Dashboard widgets a lot. Its highly impressive. CSS, JavaScript, and basic HTML, and you get some really useful features. Also mining Apple&#8217;s Web Kit. There&#8217;s a lot of potential here, and with some good CSS-fu, lots of cool widgets can happen. XCode is something I&#8217;ve used a bit more, and I&#8217;m rather impressed &#8211; jump around .js file functions too. It even edits HTML! Its very cool.<\/li>\n<li>Tried Abiword. Its kinda nice. Lightweight, doesn&#8217;t require X11, I&#8217;m kind of impressed. I wonder if gnumeric is also available on OS X and if it&#8217;s as good (I mean, I keep on reading about abiword at planet gnome&#8230;).<\/li>\n<li>Quartz Composer is cool. If this is what the programming future is going to be, we&#8217;re going to get a lot of cool, high-end apps. The toy RSS screensaver is completely easy to build! However, it performs shitless on my iBook G3 with the Radeon 7500. Looks like I really need to get some power&#8230; erps, PowerBook thing at some stage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon\" href=\"mailto:?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Some%20mac%20stuff&body=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bytebot.net%2Fblog%2Farchives%2F2005%2F06%2F07%2Fsome-mac-stuff&share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email a link to a friend\" data-email-share-error-title=\"Do you have email set up?\" data-email-share-error-text=\"If you&#039;re having problems sharing via email, you might not have email set up for your browser.
