It has an OSX utility. We are in the process of making a full switch from SourceSafe to Subversion. Tres manifique

If it weren’t for the fact that I can do most of my coding in a telnet window (vi on unix) I’d be unhappy. But my office is pretty cool and lets me hook my PB up to the network, and I tend to share time between the two – with some of the sweet tools I’ve got on my mac, I’m almost more productive doing it on my personal mac, rather than the pc…if it weren’t for the source control stuff being windows only, I’d probably rely completely on my PB.

Go look at the index page for the site – you’ll see an article titled RIAA snares popular female musician, deceased man, and three-legged kitten in piracy dragnet.

Thanks, it was good to laugh!

Poor Jorge sure missed a few points. (oops, he confused the iPod Shuffle marketing with the Mac mini…) I use a PC at work everyday and I don’t know the last time I saw (or cared about) a Floppy disk.

I could go on and on here – but I won’t. It looks like the entire site is a farce. If it’s for real – wow.

Just was wandering around. You suffer without a Mac? Take a read on someone who suffers *with* one (and I hope you will have fun):

The latter would be fun (and make a great article), but I neither have the necessary items, nor the time with 2 little ones running around. In fact, I only get to do number one while rocking the 9 month old to sleep each night. :)

For any interested – I’m quiksan on XBL. Bring it.
