Why don't Apple change the record?

DateSaturday, October 24, 2009 at 10:02AM

The latest version of Windows has been launched by Microsoft and has received some pretty positive reviews. Everyone knows that Vista was a disaster but it appears that Windows 7 is actually a good operating system.

I am a Mac convert, I love everything they make apart from their adverts, all they seem to do is talk about how rubbish Windows is, Why Don't Apple Change The Record?

Macs are not perfect, my latest laptop has had a whole bunch of problems including my email account stopping working, preview breaking etc...

Apple run the risk of becoming that arrogant kid at school who thought he was the best at everything.

Bing is not my default!

DateSaturday, June 6, 2009 at 09:37AM

So Microsoft has rebranded its search, again, it has rebuilt it, again, it has introduced revolutionary new technology, again, so what? MSN Search and Live Search were both rubbish so why should Bing be any different? Well I have had a chance to play with it for the last week and I love it, I think it is brilliant, I think it is better than Google...

Bing

...but all week my main search engine has still been Google, why? Well to use Bing I have to remember to use it where as Google is integrated into my life, it is my default search on my browser, it is my default homepage, on my iPod Touch it is the default on my mobile it is my default.

Bing is not my default!

Can this be changed? Well if my next Mac ships with Bing as the default search, if my next version of Firefox sets Bing as my default and if my next Blackberry has Bing has default then it has a chance. Shame really, it is a great search engine.
