Microsoft's Generous EULA 2007-05-19
It's ironic that the world's by far worst computer software is also the most expensive. It's even more ironic that so many people buy it. But it's close to the ultimate in irony that for most Windows users that already exorbitant price has just doubled.

Apple's Two Bits 2007-05-18

You think Microsoft's 95% market strangle is scary? Just wait. While Steve Jobs trims his two day beard and FOSS maniacs debate whether Richard Stallman should be allowed in public restrooms Bill Gates is working - and by 2015 reckons he'll have another one billion Windows users.

Oh The Focus 2007-03-05
Roughly Drafted have a great piece on Apple and Microsoft. There are a lot of angles to this piece but one of the main ones seems to be how both companies have mismanaged markets - and now it's Microsoft's turn. Both companies played splish splash 'in the Nile' and now it's Microsoft swimming with the crocs.

Reza Hussain admits in an interview Display Eater did in fact do what he's currently claiming it didn't do.

Display Eater: NIИ_6.jpg 2007-02-25
It would seem a rather well known resident of Garden City Louisiana is behind the (warped) embedded strings in Display Eater. Far be it from anyone to assume Reza got into self mutilation all on his own.

Display Eater Pathology? 2007-02-25
There's been a lot of talk of late about a fishy app called 'Display Eater'. It's made Slashdot and the comments at Version Tracker are unequivocal. Everyone's scared the app deliberately hoses computers. But the app is still available for download so staff here got a copy - not to run but just to inspect. What you see below are a few pickings using Rixstep's Xstrings. The question now is: what do we have on our hands here? Scroll through the list and see if you find something interesting.

Ballmer: 'YOU STEAL MY SOFTWARE' 2007-02-19
In a total reprise of buddy Bill's incredibly snooty and stupid letter of thirty one years ago Microsoft's CEO Steve O Ballmer - aka the 'SOB' aka 'Fat Bastard' aka 'Monkey Boy' aka 'Fat Ugly Sweaty Baboon on Crack' aka 'Eric Schmidt's Very Best Friend' - claims less than encouraging sales stats for the company's recent OS non-event are due to theft.

Enough's Enough! 2007-02-15
According to reports at Apple Defects, Apple have done it again: wiped out a forum thread where word was spreading about defects in Apple hardware and Apple's refusal to address the issues. After over 16,000 viewings the 'censor crew' Apple claim no longer exist went into action - and the thread is no more.

A New Tipping Point? 2007-02-14
The brouhaha stirring at Digg and MacSurfer is actually a topic that's over four years old. Code injector Jonathan Rentzsch got burned back in February 2003. Yet in not a single instance had any of the pundits stopped to consider what that underlying 'rock solid foundation' had to say about any of this.

Who Does Bill Gates Know at Viacom? 2007-02-07
Here's Mister Bill Gates getting up to leave after his interview on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Said interview was not, as some might think, a crass promotional stunt made possible by Bill's connections with the uncomfortable suits at Viacom, but purely an informal chitchat about nothing in particular. Bill's new product wasn't even mentioned in the interview and no attention was drawn to it. Gates just wanted to show the world what a genuinely nice person he was. It was all completely above board.

Bill Gates MSNBC Interview Mirror 2007-02-01
Because of (rather typical) IIS server issues at MSNBC.COM the Rixstep website will now mirror this most important interview. Every effort has been made to painstakingly and faithfully reproduce the excerpts from the interview in their entirety - with 100% accuracy.

Microsoft: The Most Ridiculous Software Company in the World 2007-02-06
Everyone in the know has known this for the longest time but it took a genius at Sana Security to come up with the perfect way to depict it. If never before then certainly now: a picture can truly be worth one thousand words. So next time you hear about a Microsoft worm outbreak where the clueless are running IIS without knowing it because they bought Windows XP Ess-Pee-Too or even THAT NEW ONE and IIS is just there running without their knowing it: think then of these graphs.

The dangers of the 'sudo fun' exploit remain remote but there's no point in not being safe. A graphic look at the 'Resolve Path' ACP Text Service in action with CLIX 1.8.

ACP Text Services: Resolve Path 2007-02-03
Pursuant to the 'Sudo Fun' discussion on $PATH hijacking the ACP Text Services now offer the ability to resolve paths in command lines so you can see where things are going before they get there. It's perhaps the safest way to go - possibly safer than even Terminal. Select your text; hit the keyboard shortcut ⌘~; it's done.

A Month of Apple Fanboys 2007-01-02
The Month of Apple Bugs has barely begun and the Apple fanboys are already hysterical, their behaviour more of a news item than the bugs themselves. It's also a wake-up call for potential switchers.

Enhancements vs Security 2006-12-01
Apple's dismissal of the 'InputManagers hole' as an issue of enhancement rather than security at first caught security researchers off guard. For the umpteenth time. As the same hole's been filed as a bug for years and dismissed the same way each time. But happily The Technological are now able to show why Apple were in fact correct all along. Put simply: Apple are professionals. They're not alarmists. And time and again history finds the great corporate entities speaking words of calm when everyone else is running around like the posters at the Mac Rumors forums.

F-INSECURE Spreading FUD Since '94 2006-12-01
It would seem there are others who find the antics of F-Secure a bit like - er, antics.

product-security@apple.com 2006-11-30
The 'InputManagers' security hole exploited by the likes of ichatHack, mailHack, safariHack, Oompa Loompa, InqTana, and iAdware is not a security issue - it's an enhancement issue. Don't believe it? You read it here.

The Not So Sinister Finisterre 2006-11-30
The reason security research on OS X is so interesting is that Apple take the injudicious move of branching off from tried and true Unix code to create something they're rather reluctant to call Unix anymore. Unix has had a good thirty years to mature and more researchers inspecting it by an order of magnitude. Apple use a closed source model and they're venturing out into new territory where the risk for exploits grows geometrically. And they're carrying with them legacy ideas from the birth of NeXT which predates the birth of the web. And they don't listen.

Fucking Insecure 2006-11-28
When it comes to chops in OS X and Unix that's exactly what Kamil and his friends at F-Secure are. And you know you don't have to wait long for the Cooperites to pick up the ball and run with it.

He is corpulent and slovenly with long scraggly hair, strands of which he has been known to pluck out and toss into a bowl of soup he is eating. His own website says he engages in 'nasal sex' with flowers. And though he fancies himself a crusader for tech 'freedom', he labours mightily to control how others think, speak and act, arguing in Orwellian doublespeak that his rules are necessary for people to be 'free'. He's Richard Stallman and he's bringing down the work of giants around him.

I finally got to watch the NeXTSTEP 3 Release Demo the other night. People have been pointing me to the link for ages. I couldn't get this equipment to work and so had to forego it. I told everyone 'been there done that' as NeXT Software about the same time had given me the complete kit with NS for 486, NeXTSTEP the Movie, the Garfinkel book, the works. We'd all seen what this blazing platform could do, so no one expected much new from the clip. I was in for a surprise.
