Ooops. Bloghop make the coolest error ever. Admitedly it's only cool for me. You see...(more inside).
Today Apple announced Quicktime 5.
Today Apple announced Quicktime 5. It sounds cool but it's only available for Macintosh right now. Doesn't Steve understand that he needs to get this software out to as many platforms as possible, as soon as possible?
