It's been a very long wait but today Apple has finally released to the public Java SE 6 for Mac OS X.
Before you open your best bottle of wine you should know that:
- it is not enabled by default
- it works only with Leopard (10.5.2)
- it works only on Intel-based Macs (64-bit ones)
Let us know what you think!

Here my first impression.
I found this video that describes how to get mp3 from web directory containing them. I'd never thought that such as web directory existed, but that is.
If you want to find a song search it on JimmyMir page.
To know how does it work look at this video.
Remember that piracy is illegal, don't use this trick to download music you haven't bought.
Steve Ballmer today has opened "The Next Web Now" in Milan, Italy.
In his keynote he has talked about Microsoft strategies and aims for the future ("everywhere, anytime") and has showed his vision of what the web might become in a few years.
Citing some of the most revolutionizing products of our history he has also talked about Macs, defining them "a big wave of change".
After his keynote he has answered some questions and has shown his opinion about Google: "talking about search engines, they're better than us; but Messenger is still the best-loved IM client".
The impression that Ballmer has given to the press has been positive: he has been balanced and this time he has not tried to break any MacBook Air.

Our passes... thanks wisher!
It is strange to say but, once in his life, Steve Ballmer is right.
The Verdict
Mac: In both the laptop and desktop showdowns, Apple’s computers were the winners. [.....] In our speed trials, however, Leopard OS trounced Vista in all-important tasks such as boot-up, shutdown and program-launch times. We [...] found that both Apple computers ran Vista faster than our PCs did.
PC: Simply put, Vista proved to be a more sluggish operating system than Leopard. [.....] the Gateway One actually costs $300 more than an iMac. That means for the price of the Gateway you could buy an iMac, boost its hard drive to match the Gateway’s, purchase a copy of Vista to boot—and still save $100.
I'm talking about Surface Sphere, check the links for more information and enjoy the rumors.
I'd like to see the user interface used on the sphere, it is too different than classic input devices to be something similar.
Believe it or not, Mac OS X is selling very well in the business world; considering the small marketshare Macs have, Apple is doing a fantastic job compared to Windows Vista.

With Jaxtr you can send for free SMS with a length of 65 characters. This service is available in 38 country so it's pretty probable that you can use it.
When your contact receives the message can reply to you directly to your phone if you've registered it to Jaxtr. If you didn't your friend will be able to answer by a link provided in the message.
The service seems to work fine, I just tested it with few message that arrived immediately.
The only thing that I'm looking for is a sidebar gadget: it would make Jaxtr perfect.
Do you know that funny Nintendo Console that lets you play waving a controller? Oh yeah, it's really cool! And it is also selling very well.
In January I wrote a post with the latest information on Windows Seven. I think that three months later is time to look again at the state of the new OS in development at Redmond.
Looking at the feedback form of Windows Seven came out the five pillars on witch the OS is based:
Knowing the pillar we now only have to speculate on the release date. While you're waiting check what we missed. And don't forget to tell us what do you think about this pillars.
Am I dreaming? iPhone is now sold at 99€ (154 USD circa) in Germany.
32 years ago Apple was born.
