I’m holding my breath regarding Microsoft Exchange support in Apple’s new OS10.6 Snow Leopard.
You see, I dropped using my PC altogether about a week ago. Well, almost. I still have to remote into my server and use Outlook that’s installed there, as we rely on Exchange for our email and calendar.
Which is a bit of a nuisance, as any links clicked in the mail open up in IE on the server inside the Remote Desktop window. And saving attachments? Sheesh.
So apparently my copy of Exchange-supporting Appleness is being shipped on Friday.
I really hope it “cuts the mustard”. I’ll post my thoughts here once I’ve installed it!

I was prompted to update iTunes today, but little did I realise what was in store!
A new feature called Genius looks at your tracks and can suggest playlists based up any track in your library that you select. And the Genius Sidebar links off to iTunes Store where you can purchase other tracks by the same artists that you don’t have, as well as other related suggestions.
It’s optional, but I think it’s a nice addition. Of course, I expect it’s sending info about the tracks you play off to Apple, so if you’re concerned about that then it’s probably not for you.

I had a bit of a rant recently about the software that comes with some new USB Charger packs.
Well, not I feel like a bit of a goose… It actually installs as a Dashboard Widget! Found it totally by accident… but there it is!
Ah well…
