Daring Fireball: brushed metal saga continues
"Brushed Metal: Can I borrow a hundred dollars?
Safari puts his hand on the door to close it.
Safari: I have to go.
Brushed Metal: Fifty?
Safari: Get out of here."
After this week's release of a completely non-Brushed Metal iLife 06 suite, Daring Fireball's John Gruber is at it again with another hilarious episode of a doomed Anthropomorphized Brushed Metal Interface (note: colorful language warning). In case you didn't catch the first installment, in which iTunes 5 was the first official sign of Brushed Metal's numbered days, you should probably check that one out first as it might make more sense. Either way, they're a couple of darn funny posts from a great writer. Kudos John.
