Oct 23rd 2006 4:15PM I actually know the developers of Microsoft Bob... that was a M$ acquisition, as well. Frankly, before it was "Microsofted" it was actually a pretty good idea, for the time.

The churches I've worked with have mostly hosted their own MP3 sermons. It's a growing trend for churches to communicate with communities based on their communication preferences. I remember when Biola University held their "GodBlog" conference last year... Christians are finally trying to make use of the Internet.

Aug 29th 2006 5:20PM You have *got* to be kidding me. That's *way* too much for a desktop OS! If I wanted to pay that much for a computer, I would buy a Mac!

Download Leopard, get fired from the Apple Store (Download Squad)

Aug 23rd 2006 7:27PM "..we violated our NDA and ethics policy... we had the character to tell the truth and to face the consequences... we were terminated"

OK, so what's the problem? The employees
1) knew that this was could lead to termination,
2) did it anyway,
3) were overheard talking about it. That doesn't sound like "having character" so much as "getting caught."

So, yeah, if they had kept their mouths shut they might still work there. And considering they got fired, "people who have character" are the kind of people that Apple wants working for them, but this anonymous ex-employee doesn't fit that mould.
