Humor: Apple with Windows inside
We were amused recently to see that Apple introduced Boot Camp beta software that enables Intel-based Macs to run Windows XP. Now Windows developers have a new outlet. Mac heads too.
Boot Camp allows users with a Microsoft Windows XP installation disc to install Windows XP on an Intel-based Mac, and once installation is complete, users can restart their computer to run either Mac OS X or Windows XP. Are the strange bedfellow operating systems really in the same bed at last? No. The Apple approach is a bit less than elegant. Users must hold down the option key at startup to choose between Mac OS X and Windows. Users must restart to come back to the Mac.
In our latest "Tales from the ServerSide" installation, cartoonist Zorb Bickowitz offers his take on this two-headed-system in the making.
View the cartoon here.

Terribly un-funny
Not only does the post miss the point entirely, but the comic is simply not amusing in the least. If you can't do humor effectively, stop trying.
Bring us more video interviews with key technology people out there. That's why most of us come here, and it has slowed to a trickle.

That comic is less funny than the Family Circus, and I didn't think that was possible.

Good thing we didnt run the one where the developer was talking to his parents in heaven...or the one where there were foot prints going around the lab to indicate someone was looking for their 'homework'.
