- New on 75 or Less Two new reviews from Paul. He's got writeups on Two Lone Swordsmen's From the Double Gone Chapel and DFA's first hip hop outing, Automato. You mean competitor? 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' clears murder suspect. It's even funnier when you realize that the guy was cleared by the hooker/medicinal marijuana episode. |

- Over the next few days I want to explore a series of questions about the "pillars" of Longhorn -- WinFS, Avalon, and Indigo. Last fall, when this stuff was first announced, I reacted with an entry entitled Replace and Defend. I argued then that Longhorn reinvents quite a few wheels. Nobody can blame Microsoft for seeking new ways to keep customers locked into its Windows franchise. That's a business strategy that every rational player must pursue, in one way or another. |

- It's been more than six years since Apple discontinued the Newton, but this week the Worldwide Newton Association was launched "to promote the Newton computing platform." Based in France, the Association will hold its first conference in Paris on September 5 (just after AppleExpo, France's equivalent of MacWorld). The press release says, "With several thousands of units currently running worldwide, and a core group of passionate developers, this personal digital assistant has been able to adapt to the latest evolutions in technology found in the computing world: Internet, WiFi, Bluetooth, modern storage media, and so on. Integration of these new technologies is a sign that the Newton remains the king of the PDAs, even though the production and marketing of this miniaturized computer ended over six years ago. |

inertia (Jun 02 2004 18:09 GMT) - E3 went well (for those who were interested), my product didn't win any awards, but given the decidedly mixed bag of previous winners[0] I'm not sure that it's better to have not won. I saw a lot of pretty games at E3. Lots and lots of pretty games. It's gotten to the point where art packages, hardware, and programming techniques have all combined to make it fairly simple[1] for a reasonably skilled team to put together something that looks really good. Hopefully, this will lead to an era where more games are written with a more abstract internal representation and the graphics are a way of presenting the data (you know, that silly MVC pattern that everyone else has been using forever). |
