I missed the whole Chris Brogan rumpus which seemed very much envy driven, but Scoble's doings just seem... oh, wtf. He decides how he wants to be perceived. ;) This whole debate seems somehow, albeit tangentially (is that a word even?), to be related to the many whinings from People who did the Mac OS X 10.5.6 update *without bothering to read the update info*. Apple clearly disclosed that if you had 3rd party //system-affecting// apps or had modified the system in unsupported ways, running the update might cause problems. Which, judging by some comments on Apple forums and fan sites, and Twitter bless its little fluttering heart, it did. Similar to how the first iPhone OS update wrecked many 'jailbroken' iPhones... I've run the updater on my 3 Macs (Intel iMac, G4 Powerbook, Original Mini) on systems ranging between 10.4 to 10.5 and had nary a glitch. The iMac hiccupped a little at the end, but it's not quite right anyway, so... It was a big update. You have to consider that. Anyway, this post has nothing to do with the Mac OS update really. Sorry for venting. I need coffee... ;) Couldn’t agree more, Ross. I missed the whole Chris Brogan rumpus which seemed very much envy driven, but Scoble’s doings just seem… oh, wtf.
