Jobs: Mac OS 9, rest in peace
While delivering an elegy for Mac OS 9, Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs promised Monday that Apple would ship the next major upgrade to OS X--including handwriting recognition--by the end of the summer. The new version, code-named Jaguar, will feature a handwriting technology, dubbed Inkwell, that lets Mac users enter text using a pen in any program that accepts text. Jobs quipped that Apple got something out of the millions of dollars it invested in the ill-fated Newton handheld. Jaguar will also offer improvements to Apple's Finder, such as built-in search, and new Unix tools. Features designed to make Macs work more easily in Windows networks will also be included, such as support for built-in virtual private networking. Jobs kicked off Apple's annual worldwide developer conference by paying tribute to Mac OS 9. Jobs arrived on stage to the sound of funeral music and pulled a copy of OS 9 out of a coffin. All of Apple's development is focused on OS X, and independent developers should follow suit, Jobs said. "We are here today to mourn the passing of Mac OS 9," Jobs said. "He is no doubt looking down on us today with that same smile he showed us every time he booted up."

The Beatles: DVD Collector's Set
I winced more than once at the various voice-over appearances, remembering that George, who met his wife, Patti Boyd, on the set of A Hard Day's Night would later lose her; Paul would have the love we would wish for him and then lose her to cancer; Ringo would try his hand in movies and fail, somehow always the happiest of the lot, and that sweet-faced John Lennon would be slain on a sidewalk in New York City by a crazed stranger. There will be no reunion—but we have them then and forever.
