Welcome 2004 with Macworld
it's 1 in the morning in Hong Kong and I'm watching Steve Job's keynote at Macworld San Francisco. What a great incentive to start my blog for 2004!
Here's a trivia: Did you know that Microsoft Word came out first on the Macintosh 20 years ago, even before it was available on Windows?
The 2004 version of Microsoft Office for the Mac has a Notes feature, which looks frightening identical to AquaMinds NoteTaker 2003 and Circus Ponies NoteBook. For that matter, so does Microsoft OneNote for Windows.
iLife '04 integrates iPhoto 4 (yah, but where's 3?), iMovie 4 (iSight import), iDVD 4, iTunes 4 and GarageBand (cool name, but no "i"?). The GarageBand live demonstration makes me want to learn an instrument, or two.
The iPod mini, the size of a business card, with 4GB that holds 1,000 songs for US$249. And it comes in 5 colors. I much prefer a color video iPod instead.
It's now 3 in the morning and I need to sleep.
