I hated MS in the late 90s but they stopped acting like that.  Now I get free beta versions of new OSes and *free development tools*.  The new MS is phenomenally different from the one that I knew in high school.  Apple needs to learn to open up.  Being free and open worked wonders for MS - Apple should embrace an open attitude or risk becoming a lame monolith with diminishing mind share.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JC]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 7th 2009 3:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[The segment on Apple's Schiller discussing censoring the app store is spot on. So incredibly infuriating. Jonathan Zittrain's book, "The Future of the Internet and How to Stop It" covers a lot of this stuff. Very good read. Plus, you can download a PDF version for free from his website. <a href="http://futureoftheinternet.org/" rel="nofollow">http://futureoftheinternet.org/</a><br><br>On a side note, just started listening to the podcast last week. I'm really enjoying it!

I wasn't just referring to the censorship of the dictionary, but also of their "censoring" of other apps like the Google Voice ones. Poor choice of words on my part. I meant the approval process. Either way, you made a good point that the Safari web browser makes it easy to access much of the same content that they're blocking via the rating system. The truth is that Apple is not my mom (and shouldn't be our Big Brother either).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mercado79]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 7th 2009 4:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[Also I hope people will let up on you guys about being "pro Apple."

I think your outrage over Apple "censoring" apps does not compare to the outrage I as a parent of small children have with the kind of garbage that media puts in front of our kids. I'm all for freedoms and liberties like you are but that kind of freedom also extends to the right of parents to protect small children (who like sponges absorb everything in their environment) from inappropriate content that is way too easily accessible to them with today's technology. The only effective way for me to do this is with ratings. If a movie is Rated R, it's probably not a good idea to take my 6 year old. If I don't want my 8 year old saying certain swear words, maybe I can elect to turn off Apps with 17+ ratings. If I'm a parent that doesn't care, I can elect not to use parental controls. I applaud Apple for supporting this when so many others in media and technology couldn't care less. I always enjoy listening to your podcasts but I think you guys are really not come at it from a full perspective of parents trying to raise children. By the way, I'm also an App Developer and I've had my fair share of frustrations with the approval process.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sherwin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 7th 2009 4:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[Don't forget to get turn off Safari, too (if that's even possible).

Yes, just turn off access to 17+ apps and that problem will be mostly solved, of course. But, you face another problem with your child getting crude content via Safari. The iPhone has pretty good parental controls as of version 3.0<br><br>On the flip side, if you find that you cannot effectively protect your 8-year-old from inappropriate content via the iPhone, then you may consider not letting your kid have an iPhone - at least right now. It's not a necessity, especially for someone so young. (The young ones in my family don't have smart phones doe that very reason.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tubes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 7th 2009 6:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[Was the opening song Ruby Soho.

Anyone can i principle make a game for  the ps3 and 360. As you wrote some day's ago porn streaming is even possible on the ps3, and we all know what sony's fellings are about porn. There might be some kind of selection for the psn or xb-live service thought, but you atleast have the option of buying whatever you want on DVD/blu-ray for both consoles.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Daki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 8th 2009 12:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[Stop interupting each other. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Absolute92]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 8th 2009 4:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just so you know, a custom install of Windows 7 is not an actual format of your hard drive. It just moves everything currently on the drive to a folder called Windows.old. All settings will be lost unless you use Windows Easy Transfer, but the files are still there even if not "installed". I'm not sure I'd recommend anyone with XP hardware to install 7 anyway. Just get it with a new computer like most people. Also, if people can deal with getting new computers then they can deal with a Windows 7 custom install.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kamasama]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 8th 2009 9:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/engadget-podcast-158-08-07-2009/</guid><description><![CDATA[Don't be daft.

My mom and brother don't know what it is and when I asked if they wanted it for only $50.00 they said no.  They don't care, they said the current OS is fine and not worth the money.  Also wasn't there a lot of under-the-hood changes to windows in vista and 7?  How is it so inconceivable that clean install is required.  What percent of windows sales is just the box of the OS?  Do you think mom's will be going to spend hundreds of dollars to upgrade?
