New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

that new logo does look a bit windows 7

does look better pinned to the task bar than the old one

pleased that v10 finally looks a bit more like the system preferences graphite appearance, but would rather it actually payed attention to the system preference per the HIG. zoom buttons in a column rather than a row? wtf? store arrows have moved from being right aligned to being adjacent to the text, so they are in a different l-r position on every track, which is el retardo.

also the icon looks better in the dock because it's smaller, but it still looks like something steve ballmer approved

ha i meant in windows! i think it looks fine in osx too, don't see why the internet is having a shitfit about it, apart from the usual autistic spectrum disorders

not going to defend whoever you're talking about ("the internet" apparently), but caring about subjective aesthetics does not necessarily indicate "autistic spectrum disorders".

you and your suspicious mind. i'm not talking about anyone in particular, just the volume of shrieking about something utterly unimportant that i see scattered across "the internet"

so you're saying, what is the deal with all these people with different interests to me having different opinions to me about something i don't care about?

no i'm saying what is the deal with people devoting their thursday afternoon (or wherever) indulging themselves in lengthy arguments about a fucking desktop icon, as you appear to want to do.

missing about 4 commas tbh

have you been to this website before: http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/. on some of the threads people argue about stuff other people think is unimportant. on some threads people argue about stuff they themselves think is unimportant. on this thread no one is arguing. i have no idea what you're talking about.

cool thks 4 link bro

i'm getting the DSM-V out for you caek

that book is uninteresting to me, h8 you

QANTAS!

a very trivial gripe about iTunes 10: it no longer shows the artwork for albums of less than five songs in the "album by artist" column on the right of the main list. Yeah, it still shows in the in the "now playing" square in the bottom right (in the "source" column), but I liked seeing all the art in that other column too. Also it's shrunk the size of the art in the "album by artist" column too.

there's an 'always show artwork' option under view

hot damn

i found the way to resize the artwork but then i forgot it. that'll be the early-onset alzheimer's

can't wait until i have to friend people in every program i use - word, excel, final cut pro

people still use word and excel? google apps imo

on corporate campuses you already can use Office Communicator to track a friend list for office apps and it inserts the proper links to message or email them.

if you click and hold on the artwork column title you have an option to change the size. i win

haha yes I just figured that out too; ok, that's much better!

for people who really care about subjective aesthetics

haha why are u getting het up caek u maddie

so sad i took this thread so seriously, wish i were as chilled out vibes as dg

drinking weak tea and taking my autistic spectrum disorder medication right now though, so should be ok by itunes 11

caek and fonts are always awesome in my experience

i'm taking caek to vegas

speaking as some one who not only doesnt have aspergers but has actual real friends and even a girlfriend, the new itunes is ugly

your going to need to break that down, max. i'm is dealing with issues in re: how other people's interests and opinions could be different to my own.

no i'm saying what is the deal with people devoting their thursday afternoon (or wherever) indulging themselves in lengthy arguments about a fucking desktop icon, as you appear to want to do.

^^^ maybe you missed this post.

I like this new iTunes, guys. Dunno about this Ping thing

I have made the statement that if the iPhone 4 starts coming with sixty-four gee bees I will buy one.

to get rid of the itunes store arrows in your lib:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes show-store-arrow-links -bool FALSE

to get horizontal min/max/close buttons:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes full-window -boolean YES

when you hover over the album artwork window when an album is playing you get itunes controls - is that new?

doesn't happen for me

it's the window that pops out when you click the artwork in the main itunes app

(... and the track/album has to be playing)

oh, ye, that's been there since they brought in the movie player i think

huh, i don't see that now (still on the old version)

you can pull the corner to make the artwork box MASSIVE too

i got a magic trackpad.

shit is magic.

i wish i had waited and got that instead of a magic mouse - it came out like 3 days after i couldnt bring it back any more - not like i knew it was coming but argh

so is it good?

i have a magic mouse at work and i really like it (also hooked up to an iMac), and i was thinking of buying another one for home to replace my old and buggy mighty mouse (the trackball would always get clogged up)

decided to go with the trackpad instead and i'm really liking it. something very satisfying about not having to drag the a mouse around the desk all the time. i do a lot of document editing and it's been working great.

it also looks damn cool!

habit would say you keep the trackpad on your right like a mouse but i'm liking it front and center, like a laptop, but above my keyboard

ya i'm just so used to trackpad from my laptop (i hook my laptop up to a keyboard + mouse + monitor at home) that at first i was really craving it. now i'm not sure.

apple keybs (i have the wireless one) have gotten so good lately too. stoked that my new MBP (coming soon!) will have the new styley
