Editorial: The Day After WWDC Headache

Ted Landau, of MacFixIt fame, has a very realistic look at the headache we're facing post the recent news from WWDC: the Apple switch to Intel.

It's an interesting read. I have to say, though, that now that I have managed to work past my initial shock, the announcement is making more sense. The only part of it all that still doesn't sit well with me is the DRM issues involved. That, and I'm feeling a bit odd about how dead wrong my thoughts in the podcast were.

Also, now that it is the day after, I'm left feeling very disappointed by WWDC. This was simultaneously the most uneventful and eventful WWDC in a while. I mean, the only real news presented was the huge news of the switch to Intel. But, if most of the Mac spin on it is to be believed this is really only developer news. The only other new goodness discussed were the podcasting iTunes capabilities, which we already knew about. No new hardware whatsoever. No "One more thing." I'm feeling a little let down by the whole affair.
