Apple Asks for Permanent Injunction Against Psystar - http://www.groklaw.net/article...
This is why Apple will never be #1 on the desktop. They want to keep full control over the hardware, charge outrageous prices for it, and not allow anyone that doesn't pay for their hardware package to use their OS. You can build your own Windows box, you can build your own Linux box, but technically you can NOT build your own Mac without breaking their EULA. To me this is too... more... - April Russo (app103)
I agree with April - I want to try MacOS, but I can't unless it's on my hardware and on my terms. I've been through 5 Mac computers and always went back to Windows. I just do not like it. - Tamar Weinberg
But I also wanted to comment that according to the article that on the low end of the costs, Psystar seems getting a real bargain compared to Jammie Thomas. - Tamar Weinberg

Needed: Web designer for contract work for a 5-8 pg site w/link to e-commerce store). Catch: Need to go live by Monday. louisgray@mac.com
For a client, not me. Referrals welcome. - Louis Gray
I think Anika & Adrian would like some work. Tina, too. Dunno if it's up their respective alleys... - Spidra Webster
I think Anika would shoot me once she figures out the content. But this is open season. Besides, can't hurt to get a good list beyond those I use now. - Louis Gray
Can I use my Geocities page as a reference? What about Angelfire? - Mike Nayyar
We are not web designers, Spidra. - Anika
Web designer or developer? - Mo Kargas
I'd consider it any other week but with Thanksgiving prep I'm not comfortable committing to having something done by Monday. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
My apologies, Anika. I thought you did web design. I remember you talking about clients stealing your templates and I assumed they were web templates. sorry. - Spidra Webster
are you going for it? - Thomas Power
Thomas, this one's not for me. I promise. :) And Tina, understood 100%. This is simple Web HTML, not deep development. - Louis Gray
ok sorry thought this was LGPTM - Thomas Power
@Louis Do you guys have a 'design' already? - Mo Kargas
Might find someone in the Developers Corner at donationcoder.com forum: http://www.donationcoder.com/Forums... - April Russo (app103)
Mo, the client has a logo and has design for their product which would factor into the site. Nothing too dramatic. - Louis Gray
Louis, I know some web designers who may be free. Can we get some more details about the requirements and effort involved? - Stephen Mack
i thought mac.com was gone and you had to use me.com now. O_o - John Wang
Just contacted a good friend of mine...damn good web programmer in need of some cash...his reply: <Krishean> if they already have a site design created in photoshop or something i can create the html/css/js?/php?/asp? for it pretty quickly <Krishean> if they provide a zip containing the source images and a psd or something that shows the layout i can throw it together in about an hour <Krishean> i can't create designs or content, but i can make the code for an existing design - April Russo (app103)
He wants to know: <Krishean> any requirements on the html style? html4.01/xhtml1.0/1.1 strict/transitional? - April Russo (app103)
Stephen, I have, as you can guess, a few bids, two of which we will choose from. - Louis Gray
April, feel free to pass me their contact info for future stuff. Consider this Rolodex building. Thanks! - Louis Gray
Louis, I know several - let me know if those in your current Rolodex don't work out. - Jesse Stay
Nothing like a deadline ??!! Can't wait to see this - Charlie Anzman
Jesse, pass along several via e-mail. I think I have an answer. And Charlie, I don't know if I'll ever have my name to this project. Maybe? Maybe not. - Louis Gray
Louis...unfortunately, Krishean doesn't want to be in the Rolodex of anyone he doesn't know (he's very shy). But I am passing along an open invitation from him to you, if you want to get to know him. You can find him on IRC at irc.rizon.net #animeyakuza (don't let the channel name fool you. it's pure demented geek paradise and home of mad computer science) - April Russo (app103)
