“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 »

“First thing I thought about when the liveblogs ended for the event was where to go for the live show Dan mentioned on Twitter. Great insight from a great panel of people.”
