Glad he hasn't (yet) said this will be the last one. Was kind of worried about that sort of postscript when I clicked this link. What if Apple switched to a new file system in OS X and John wasn't writing a review? (Agree with him that it does feel like Core Storage is headed in that direction.)

I dunno, this brief Twitter exchange suggests it may well be he last review https://twitter.com/siracusa/status/522889656476917760 https://twitter.com/siracusa/status/522889656476917760

  How does it suggest that? It just says he doesn't want to turn his reviews into a book; I can think of lots of more plausible reasons than "because the most recent is the last one". (The existence of this about-my-review page isn't reason to suspect he's quitting, either; I think he's been doing such pages for a while. I certainly remember there being one for his last OS X review.)

    Note that the link loads a full conversation but scrolls to the end. If you scroll up, you'll see a pretty definitive statement that he's not continuing the reviews.

      D'oh, so it does. My apologies for being blind and/or stupid. Thanks!

        It's not very obvious unless you've seen a lot of similar links from Twitter, so I can't blame you for missing it. I just thought I'd point it out so you'd know what's up for the next time.

  He's also mentioned it a few times on his podcast (Accidental Tech Podcast, which is actually quite good)
