It’s been a year since I started posting at Command-Tab, and it’s been a great learning experience for me, and hopefully you as well. I’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback about my site, and every bit of it is appreciated. I’m enjoying sharing my technological adventures with anyone curious enough to read, and I have no intentions of stopping now. Thanks, everyone, for your continued support and interest.
I just finished watching the MacWorld Boston 1997 keynote where Steve Jobs made his return to Apple and, with the help of a new board of directors, began to turn the company around. As he said, the Mac OS is one of Apple’s core assets. That’s never been more true than ever today, almost ten years later, with Mac OS X. The Mac hardware would be nothing without the increasingly great system software to go along with it. All iPods aside, the Mac OS is the best thing Apple has going for them. Mac OS X receives dramatic improvements with every release, leaving little room for reasons not to upgrade.
I think you still have to think differently to buy an Apple computer. I think the people who buy them do think differently, and they are the creative spirits in this world. They are the people that are not just out to get a job done, they are out to change the world, and they’re out to change the world using whatever great tools they can get. We make tools for those kinds of people. — Steve Jobs
This was back in 1997, but you wouldn’t know it’s not this very day. Apple is most certainly stronger than ever, and I couldn’t be more excited to be a loyal Mac user in today’s market.
So far so good — both Apple and me.

Hi Collin, I can’t remember exactly when I started reading your site, but it has to be just about a year ago. Congratulations and thanks for letting us in on your thoughts and technical exploits. Keep up the good work.
