So, the first high profile hire by the new CEO of Apple isJohn Browent, ex of Dixons retail customer service. Macworld ClickyI'm guessing nobody at Apple US asked anyone in the UK if that was a good idea.

God Steve's barely cold in the ground and the slide's begun. Is he seriously the best Apple could find?

Katie Price is now in charge of Design.
And they're getting the motherboards from Amstrad.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

I'd love it if Sir Clive Sinclair was at Apple. At least the rubber keys would be an improvement on the crap keyboards they have now... _________________Jim

Worst. Keyboard. Ever. Seriously. That rubber keyboard was just awful. No feel. At least the scrabble tiles sound and feel good.

That's rather my point - they don't. If it's not a Model M, it sucks. _________________Jim

After a few years of a Scrabble the keyboard, I find a regular keyboard uncomfortable to use. When those keyboards came out, I noted at the time that they reminded me of the Z88 - and apart from the "dead flesh" feel, I found that a pretty useable keyboard.
