   You can trick it into installing by changing SystemVersion.plist but it's a dirty hack. Xcode did seem to launch fine though afterwards (I only used it to activate Developer mode on my iPad)

   Animation? I can't be the only one who finds this slightly funny, surely.

   Wow, check out the removal steps in the kb article. Quit the app using Activity Monitor then delete from /Applications. Clearly we have a long way to go...

   Mute doesn't silence alarms on the iPhone, however the volume control does work. 0% and you won't wake up.

   I've never noticed the EFI on my MacBook, it's certainly never gotten in the way -- can you elaborate?

    Yeah, this sounds like a bug; I'm pretty sure that should be GPU accelerated.

    Is this like the "Sample" button in Activity Monitor on OS X?

    Isn't it though? There are plenty of AV suites for android already. And those spyware incidents...

    Everything on the iPhone (from 3GS forward) is already encrypted afaik. That's how remote wipe works instantly (by just deleting the encryption keys)

    And yet this 8 bit microcontroller seems to have more fluid, smooth scrolling than all of them...

    There is a mod on Cydia enabling user accounts for the iPhone, not sure how it's implemented though.

    I'd like to see a compiled list of open technologies Apple has chosen vs closed. "invariably closed" my arse.

    For those on Mac OS X (and perhaps *BSD?), we have srm. The Secure Empty Trash function is a frontend for this IIRC.

    That's not true, Applications could still run as root but be signed and subject to approval as they are now. The only difference I can think of is they just wouldn't be sandboxed any longer.

    >Or maybe it'll just multitask well enough to record audio in the background, with the mics attached by a cord. Probably does already, have you tried?

    Will it be maintainable? What happens when there's a collision and we have a pile of milk and rotting eggs stuck in the most inconvenient place possible?
