“Just listened to episode 4 yesterday. I'm curious to know what, specifically, it is that @MarcoArment finds so bad about Windows. Are we talking about Windows 7? Full disclosure: I am a long time Windows user and not-so-long-time Mac OS X user. I am running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) on the MacBook Pro that I've owned for 2.5 years (well, my employer owns it technically, but anyway...). I consider myself a fairly proficient Mac OS user having learned how to do - I think - most common tasks and many gestures / keyboard shortcuts. I have even done a fair amount of Xcode development as a hobby. "Full-full disclosure": I have been using Windows since the mid-90s, I was best-described as a .NET developer before I went into IT management, and I use Windows 7 on a day-to-day basis at work. However, all of that said, I think Windows 7 is a pretty decent OS with lots of "polish" compared to past versions of Windows. I'm a fan of both Mac OS and Windows 7 as well as many other technologies. I would also add that I think Apple hardware is superior and one of the reasons I enjoy my MacBook Pro so much. I would appreciate to hear more on the subject of how Windows is terrible... like a 3rd world country compared to Mac OS X being a 1st world country (comments to that effect were in the show). Given Marco's past discussions of the challenge of moving away from TextMate to other text editors, I am almost suspicious this is more an issue of "muscle-memory" and being "out of his element" on a Windows machine. Perhaps a future Build and Analyze show topic?”Read full review »

“Easily the worst podcast in this series. I couldn't decide which was worse- the parts with dead air, or the parts without. Incredible reduction in content quality from earlier ones in this series. 'Cocky Dan' just doesn't work, and Haddie contributes very, very little. Awful.”Read full review »

“the Kindacriticsl is a really great special where Metlin, Marco and Dan create an alternative hypercritical episode. They analyse accurately and critically the current state of Apple and how they got where they are. Mix in carbonated water
and a lot of humor, an excellent format is born. Keep it...”Read full review »
