Question: The fact that official support for IE 5 on the Mac will end on December 31 has been talked about ad nauseum in the Mac blogosphere so far today. My question is simply this: do you care? My Answer: Hell no. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in […]

Question: If you could jam cell phones in any locations you choose, where would you jam them? My Answer: Movie theaters. If I attended meetings, classes, or similar things I'd want them blocked there, too. Also, it'd be nice to selectively jam one person's cell phone so that they either quit in the middle of […]

Question: Will Apple have "Intel Inside" stickers or otherwise promote the Intel chips inside the computers? My Answer: I don't think so. Apple promoted "G5" because it sounds cool and it distinguished the tower. They don't promote the fact that it's an IBM (or a Motorola on the G4) chip inside. Apple has almost never […]

Question: Imagine you'd just beat a very, very competitive player named Rebecca on The Apprentice and won the job. Then Donald asks you "should I also hire Rebecca?" What would your answer be? My Answer: If I had 30 seconds to talk, I might have said "I'd love to have Rebecca as one of my […]

Question: How much do you charge per hour for whatever it is you charge for? My Answer: I have a lot of readers who, at one time or another, have done freelance work. My base rate is about $150/hour, but I'm particularly careful to do an hour's worth of work in that time frame, even […]

Question: I've let Carey guess at what I bought her for Christmas for a week or two now. She's not gotten close yet. Do you let others guess? What do you do if they get it right? My Answer: I only let Carey guess because I don't think she'll ever get it. If she does, […]

Question: Is software designed for men? My Answer: No. Software is designed for a user - period. Someone told me that Apple's predilection for "metal" is indicative of their favorable stance towards manly users, but what then of their pulsing "OK" buttons and soft fades and whizzy effects? Absolutely nothing, as none of it has […]

Question: Have you attended or will you be attending any "office Christmas parties" this year? My Answer: I will be tonight. Hopefully it will turn out better than "The Office" Christmas party. 🙂 You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

Question: Do you believe the reports? My Answer: I hope with all of my might that PowerPage, as usual, is wrong, but at the same time I wouldn't put it past Apple to do something stupid like this. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on […]

Question: Do you believe public schools should have uniforms? My Answer: I do. Studies (look 'em up) have shown that public schools that have uniforms have less violence and better behaved students. The cool kids will still be cool but at least the dorks will have one less thing to be worried about. Money isn't […]
