cosmic binaries

  • 아티클

The list of universal binaries is growing. For gamers, World of Warcraft and Unreal have made it to universal. The latest Mathematica update (released yesterday!) has brought it to universal. Quicksilver has been there since build 43. Delicious Library is there (and I really like that app). There's lots more, of course; those are just some of the apps that caught my eye. For a more complete listing, you can check out the MacRumors list of universal binaries, which covers many commercial applications plus some of the more popular freeware/shareware apps. The list from MacObserver is pretty good, too. The MacUpdate list and the VersionTracker list are better for shareware/freeware apps, and they're showing a couple of dozen updates a day.

It's good to see these updates. I'd love to know if/when Aspyr is going to issue a patch for The Sims 2 or if the upcoming Civilisation 4 is going to be universal. I'm sorely tempted by the MacBook Pro, if only because my personal laptop (a TiBook 1-GHz) is a bit long in the tooth.

    And...everyone gets a free extra 166 Mhz for their MacBook Pros! It's like Yikes! (and the disappearing 50 Mhz) in reverse...

    I think that various folks around here would get cranky with me if I jumped ship to Apple after having been here for less than five months!
