Curse you, Steve! And other Xmas things

摘要

I needed... well, wanted might be more accurate... a new iPod, so I went to Fry's, the geek's toy store, and purchased an iPod Touch. I think of it as an early Christmas present to myself because myself has been so good this year. When I got home I plugged the Touch into my Mac dual 2GHz PowerPC-based GS running OS X 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1. By the way, what will happen when Apple decides it's time to move to OS Version 11? Will the OS be named OSXI?Ina decade or so could we see OS XCIV? Will Apple get off the animal names ("Panther," "Tiger," "Snow Leopard," and the forthcoming "Lion") and move to something more in line with the Roman numerals, like "Caligula" (which would probably be unstable) or "Hadrian" (which would probably come with a new firewall)? But I digress...
