Description:
Ok. Why another Mac-ish theme ? Well, I wasn't quite happy with most of the mac-ish themes available out there as none of them (that I know) were really up-to-date or taking into account a number of issues.So, what I did is:
1-Design a brand new pixmap/clearlooks theme based upon the latest standards (I also took a lot of screenshots, and a lot of inspiration from the Gran Glossy P theme for the pixart).
2- I designed from scratch a new metacity theme based upon the human hardy metacity engine. All buttons were designed with inkscape and are thus in SVG format.
3- I chose not to make this theme entirely based upon the pixmap engine (clearlooks engine did the rest !) as I love to use a number of apps that actually don't like the pixmap engine so much...
As a conclusion, I'm happy with the result and now glad to share it. (Edit 21-04-2008 - I'm actually really proud of it !)
I'll release a the matching icon theme in a fortnight.
Logos, design and anything that make this theme look like the real deal are owned by Apple. Thus, not GPL at all !
Changelog:
2.5: Changed the metacity theme to a less 'obvious' one. In the eternal style. Also changed the scrollbars to squared ones.2.4: Relased a matching iconset
2.3: Adjusted metacity title text color. - Fixed issues with some panel applets.
2.2: Slightly resized the check and radio buttons.
2.1: Major update. In the process of designing the matching iconset, I ended redesigning every single bit of graphic from scratch using inkscape.
ALSO, added notebooks graphics.

据国外媒体报道,2008年即将过去,回顾2007年底或今年年度人们对2008年的展望,会发现很多预测并未得以实现。以下为6大最差预测:
1. Linux得势
《PC World》曾预测,由于Windows Vista表现欠佳, Linux将迅速占领企业和政府市场。实际情况是,Windows的市场份额仍高达90%,而Mac OS X为9.1%。
2. CNET五大预测全部落空
CNET预测的“宽带危机、PC被淘汰、谷歌垄断700mhz频段资源及股价突破1000美元、苹果发布新型产品和宽带电视灭亡”五大趋势全部落空。
3. 科技博客网站ReadWriteWeb预测,语义Web应用将于2008年普及,而事实并非如此。
4. 《商业周刊》预测,AOL将与微软、谷歌或雅虎达成某种交易,目前尚未发生。
5. 知名IT分析师约翰·巴特利(John Battelle)预测,雅虎2008年将找到适当的战略,重新振作起来。而今年,雅虎两次裁员,与谷歌和微软的交易全部破产,CEO杨致远也不得不辞职。
6. 媒体将声讨任天堂Wii
Street.com网站曾声称,Wii并不是一款伟大的视频游戏机,2008年定会遭到媒体声讨。但实际情况是,Wii今年的销售势头强劲,还是圣诞节期间的最畅销游戏机。
GeeXboX是一份完整的操作系统,它运行Linux内核并基于出色的软件 MPlayer。它不需要硬盘,你只要把GeeXboX可启动光盘插入任何一台奔腾级计算机的光驱就能引导之。此外,GeeXboX是自由的软件,它的诞 生要感谢许许多多的开源软件。这意味着任何人都可以修改它并且创建他自己的GeeXboX发布。你可能会奇怪,为什么要选择引导进另外一种操作系统以播放 你的媒体文件呢?但是,请想像一下那些Mini-ITX平台,例如VIA Epia/Eden或者Shuttle barebones吧。现在可以把DivX带进你的家庭影院,把这类计算机变成你的电视机。在首个开发版本释出时(2002年十二月),它还只能播放 DivX电影,但现在,几乎所有的媒体文件都能在GeeXboX里播放了。
The third beta release of GeeXboX 1.2, a bootable, Linux-based media player, is now ready for testing: "Here comes beta 3 which is definitely a candidate for 1.2 release. We've performed a huge amount of bug fixes in various areas and were able to correct some longstanding issues we had. Two major changes come with this release: a completely new auto-mounter that now relies on D-BUS and HAL and the restoration of installer feature. Finally you should be able to install GeeXboX again, on both your hard disk drives and USB keys. Other parts of GeeXboX also had a few changes, mostly regarding the player that received a few fixes for audio CDs, DVDs, AAC and RealVideo 9 playback. Changelog: upgraded Linux kernel to 2.6.27.10; upgraded ATI Radeon and RAGE 128 drivers; updated MPlayer to r28184 (provides native RealVideo 9 / RV30 decoder)...." Here is the full release announcement. Download (MD5): geexbox-1.2-beta3-en.i386.glibc.iso (19.0MB), geexbox-1.2-beta3-en.x86_64.glibc.iso (20.4MB).

Lunar是一份基于源码的Linux发行,其独特的包管理系统能够根据即将进行安装的机器 生成相应的软件包或模块。尽管进行一次完整的Lunar安装需要花费一些时间,但这样做是值得的,因为一旦你安装完毕,Lunar运行起来是非常快 的!Lunar起先是Sorcerer GNU Linux (SGL)的一个分支,那发生在2002年的1月末到2月初,并由一群希望联合开发并扩展Sorcerer技术的人所倡导。该项目最初的名字叫做 Lunar-Penguin,但后来开发组决定更名为Lunar-Linux,而Lunar-Penguin则成为了一个通用名词,当开发组要开发 Lunar-Linux之外的产品时,他们就可以使用Lunar-Penguin的名称。
Stefan Wold has announced the release of Lunar Linux 1.6.4, a source-based distribution designed for advanced Linux users: "The Lunar team proudly announce the final release of Lunar Linux 1.6.4, code,name 'Lacus Autumni'. It is our most polished release to date. New features: working software RAID configuration; improved language selection; installation from a USB stick or other media; ships with kernel 2.6.27.10; ReiserFS, XFS and JFS file systems are now also built-in with the precompiled kernels. Summary of changes since beta 1: isolinux updated; all modules refreshed; installer will now skip the 'swap file' step if a swap partition has been added; USB modems in the precompiled kernel have been disabled since they require firmware images that we don't supply; added lsb-release." Refer to the full release announcement for more details. Download: lunar-1.6.4-i686.iso.bz2 (296MB, MD5), lunar-1.6.4-x86_64.iso.bz2 (305MB, MD5).

投资银行考夫曼兄弟近日表示,对于苹果CEO乔布斯健康状况对苹果的影响并不担忧,虽然乔布斯是苹果公司复苏的关键,但乔布斯的精神已经根植在成千上万的苹果员工脑中.
在本月初重回100美元之后,苹果股票在上周重新受到了下降的压力,原因是苹果宣布今后将不再参加Wacworld大会.这也结束了苹果参加Wacworld大会25年的历史,苹果称现在已经有更多更好的方式与用户接触,不再仅限于展会.
有媒体借此发表文章调侃称“这是苹果的最后一次圣诞节” .不过其他人的心情很显然不会这么轻松,苹果的投资者情不自禁地想这是不是和乔布斯的健康状况有关,同时也质疑苹果公司为什么要等到Macworld大会开帘卷西风幕的前三周才宣布.
考夫曼兄弟的分析师Shaw Wu在给客户的简报中阐述了自己对苹果公司的观点,表示并不认同苹果只是乔布斯一个人的舞台这一观点.Shaw Wu表示,乔布斯的确在苹果复苏崛起中至关重要,作为一位技术之父,先后推出了Apple I、Apple II、Lisa、Macintosh、NeXT、Pixar、Mac OS X、Apple Store、iTunes、iPod、iPhone等革
莫道不消魂命性产品.但我们相信苹果公司如今已经深得创新文化的精髓,这种精神上的东西或多或少已经成了制 度.
言外之意是说,苹果公司现在完全可以依靠整体创新前进,少了乔布斯也可以,因为他的精神已经印在每个员工脑中.
Shaw Wu还表示,苹果现在已经不光是一家只会创新的公司,在管理和运营方面也是世界一流的,这些管理和运营策略来自苹果高级管理团体以及其所领佳节又重阳导的3.2万名员工,而不是乔布斯一个人.同时,Shaw Wu依然对苹果股票持“买入”评级,目标价维持在120美元.

昨天上Youtube发现视频下方有一排半透明的文字广告,广告上标注Ads By Google,说明可能是Google AdSense广告。
点击广告上的关闭按钮,可以将广告隐藏,这时候会在视频的左下角显示一个很小的“Ad”按钮,点击该按钮后,广告又会恢复显示。
在第二次播放该视频的时候,广告显示和第一次又有所不同,仅以一行跑马灯式的字幕形式来显示广告。
目前并不是所有YouTube视频都有广告,只有少部分视频有广告,据报道YouTube将与视频主人共享收入。
目前国内的视频网站也有广告,不过基本上都是在视频播放前或播放后显示的广告,并非YouTube这种融合到视频中的广告,如果按照效果来看的话,显然YouTube的这种广告的显示效果和点击率会更高一些。
YouTube是Google去年花17.6亿美元收购的一个视频分享网站,使用者可以上载、观看及分享视频短片。目前YouTube已经成为当前行业内最为成功、实力最为强大、影响力颇广的在线视频服务提供商。
