- Site Breaks Street Date With Review of New Panic Application

I've got good news and bad. The good news is that Panic software, the makers of such venerated Mac-only shareware apps as Transmit, Unison and the much-mourned Audion, will soon release a new, extremely powerful web-development program, Coda. The bad news is that I shouldn't already know this: MacApper ran a review a day before the official announcement and even posted screenshots. The cat's out of the bag now, so the review stays, but Panic had the screenshots taken down shortly after the offending blurb popped up. It'll all be public in a few hours anyway. The app sounds sweet, by the way:
Which brings me to the built in editor. For me this is really the deal maker. One of the problems I have had switching to a Mac is the editors on OS X. They aren't bad, but they aren't great either. Having said that, I think the guys at Panic are off to a really great start with their own editor. All of the usual languages are supported and styled appropriately including: CSS, HTML, Javascript, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL, XML, and straight text.
Dig it.

Pete Mortensen - High-Res Shots of Apple Gear at NAB

I'm sorry, Dave. I can't let you do that. AppleInsider has reams of photos taken at the National Association of Broadcasters conference last week in Las Vegas. Apple was out in full force: 3/4 Petabytes of storage space, 3 miles of fiber optic cable, 4 M2 Gb networks, 90 Xserves and 40 Xserve RAIDs.
Sadly, that config is not available for purchase from the Apple Store at this time. Check it out.

Pete Mortensen - Apple Engineer's Bittersweet Departure Sums Up What Makes Us Great

Apple's insistence on secrecy has many unintended consequences: Mac fans are hard to please, rumor sites do their best to steal information about unannounced products, and, most interestingly, it gets easy to forget that Apple is a company made up of real people with feelings and lives. That's why this spectacular farewell to Cupertino written by Buzz Andersen, formerly the author of shareware app Podworks and for four years an Apple software engineer, hits me square in the left ventricle. There is love and life in Cupertino, folks:
Like the Macintosh team of old, I started out at Apple as a young engineer willing to subordinate my life (for a time) to something I was passionate about. When I left my first position at Apple (in OS X Integration) for a real engineering job in Pro Apps, I was eager to make the features I was assigned the best they could be, even if it meant putting in difficult hours to get them done on schedule. So I put in the hours. I worked evenings and weekends. I worked while I was ill. Even when I ended up laid up at home in the throes of what turned out to be mononucleosis (a condition, for those who haven't had the pleasure, that lends itself more to constant unconsciousness than constant concentration), I sat in bed fixing bugs. And little by little, I burnt myself out.
<sniff>No, no, go on, Buzz. I'm not crying. It's just something in my eye, that's all.</sniff> That just killed me. Maybe I'll see you on the other side, man. When the fighting's through.
