The Ical whine returns! Merlins trademark mac whine returns for a cameo....
Did i mention this is one of the longest MBW's ever, almot 2 hours! You really get what you pay for here at Macbreak Weekly (In fact, i have not been able to eat for days, writing shownotes for this show was impossible, its the first time i had to DRAFT shownotes)
DO NOT! REPEAT NOT! Email leo to get MBW's present to you this holiday season. If you wan't to get the PDF of Merlins Mannerisms, a date book with quotes from Merlin Mann, just click here
Merlin mentions the one thing George Lucas has spend all his money trying to destroy: the star wars holiday special
Andy actually cut a mildly entertaining movie from it in the pre-imovie days! (Andy Ihnatko: If there was a checkbox on life that said "stop sucking", i would be able to click it, my examples include Comic Sans and the Star wars Holiday Special)
Happy Life Day! For all wookies and star wars geeks everywhere!
Shash: Thank god i was not alive when the Star Wars Holiday Special was released
Merlin: Things were different in 1978, i would watch Darth Vader make Hashbrowns
Macworld Predictions!
The big-iPhone, small-macbook, tablet, touch, sub-notebook, thing! The Apple Rumour mill builds a rumour aggregator!
Nobody has any idea what is going to happen, face it, but we do know one thing:
It will be cool! (but we don't know how cool, it might be leopard cool, tiger-when-it-came-out cool, iPhone cool, Newton cool, 1995-called-again cool, we don't know, but it WILL be cool)
