An Apple A Day...
Keeps the hacker away? Apparently, Apple is berating potential hackers with poetic error messages:
"The maker of Macintosh computers had anticipated that hackers would try to crack its new OS X operating system built to work on Intel Corp.'s chips and run pirated versions on non-Apple computers. So, Apple developers embedded a warning deep in the software — in the form of a poem."

In other news, futurist Tim Bajarin writes about Apple in his predictions for the New Year. He thinks that Apple will become a "Powerful Consumer Electronic Company."
"Apple is still a computer company, their success of the iPod has shown that they can be potentially stronger as a CE vendor. But they have an interesting dynamic that will make them the only PC Company who I think can transition into a powerful CE company as well.Apple’s edge is that they not only have PC and CE devices, but they also have the content tied directly to these products and in essence are creating a total ecosystem where all are linked together easily and seamlessly into a single solution. I fully expect Apple to extend their reach into the living room at some time in 2006 and by the end of the New Year we should have a real strong understanding of how Apple plans to “own” the digital home of the future. My best guess is that Apple will lay out a more detailed plan for their approach to the digital home at their next developer’s conference mid year. "
