Tip: Spaces – the final frontier

Hello, sports fans. Here be a few tips to make the most of Leopards Spaces. Yarr.

Wait, sorry. I always sucked at that thing where you put words into fragments and made it all make sense (speech? cognizance? Hmmm…). Maybe that’s why my father left…

When apple made the iphone, it didn’t throw together some cheap-o bare-bones firmware. It took OS X, its full-featured desktop operating system, and somehow squished it down to fit inside the iPhone’s elegant glass-and-stainless-steel case. That makes the iPhone more than just a gadget. It’s a genuine handheld, walk-around computer, the first device that really deserves the name. One of the big trends of 2007 was the idea that computing doesn’t belong just in cyberspace, it needs to happen …
