Re: New blog post from Philip Hodgetts. Worth the read.

[James Daugherty] "I would just like to make Apple feel the way I feel about their betrayal. I have some ideas. Maybe a t-shirt for NAB... developing."

Now THAT made me laugh.

Back in the late 1980s I had almost the EXACT same plan. I was going to get a bunch of T-shirts made up that read "Friends don't let friends drive PCs" for an early MacWorld. (We were in our early blush of success with the Mac and everything seemed so superior to our untrained brains!)

Considering all the changes in the subsequent years, the Scully/Amelio led downturn in Apple, and the long slog back to relevance, I think if I'd done that in the blush of youth, I'd have not looked back on it as a moment of displaying much sober intelligence to the world...

But that's the normal province of the young. So rock on, James. Have fun. Just keep your eyes open, dude. A few of us think the long game is far from decided in the NLE evolution wars.

Peace.
