However, even iLife has its drawbacks in an educational setting. It simply hands so much to the students that they struggle with software (whether Windows, Linux, or even pro-level software on the Mac) that isn’t so brilliantly plug and play. Yes, iLife rocks in many ways, but the level of spoonfeeding it encourages actually makes me think twice... - http://finalbossform.com/post...
I'm on pretty much the same page as Joshua. I was amazed it launched, which is a credit to the remaining team of heroes. It'll be interesting to see what happens now—given a 2-3 year innovation time-debt, a brand-new bespoke infrastructure, and a load of enqueued we'll-fix-it-laters. Selected joshu quotes: "I think the open question now is whether the remaining team will be able to innovate or be stuck in complicated codebase hell. ... I have significant regret over what ended up happening with Delicious. We could have gone so much farther. ... engineering was focused on the rewrite so nobody had time to replace the old search engine ... They had the technology, but the relevant staff had higher priorities."

Bell's = ze bomb. Two Hearted Ale is pretty much a food group of my diet.

When I lived in A2, MI I drank so much Bell's. One of the best and most unheralded micro breweries in the United States. OMG thanks for the memories!

Matt, I'm not at the brewery, but I would love to visit some time. I always pickup Bell's when I see it since I don't come across it on the west coast.

Oh yeah! I'm back in Michigan now, I can drink myself silly on Bell's now

absolutely one of the best breweries in the US. That reminds me, I'm driving through Michigan very soon and may need to make a slight detour! :)

We WERE upset in Chicago. Hearing the name Bell's is like hearing the name of a girl who dumped you. I miss her so much...

When I heard the name Kalamazoo I assumed you were in Australia. Newcastle Brown is a good ale-- I'd recommend it.

I've loved every Bell's beer I've had (except for the Cherry Stout). Oberon, Celebrator Doppelbock, Two Hearted, Third Coast Old Ale, all good. I've almost always got bottles of something of theirs in the the fridge
