A few Apple related tidbits today.
Apple store to open in Birmingham Bullring.
Apple today said it would open its second Apple Store in the UK later this month. The grand opening of its Birmingham store will coincide with the launch of Mac OS X Tiger: the Apple Store Bullring will open on April 29th at 6 pm to help celebrate the launch of its next-generation operating system. The store will be open until midnight, allowing users to get a hands-on introduction to Tiger.
Microsoft 'Made with a Mac'
Microsoft's $200 million campaign to sell its three-year old Windows XP OS would never have got off the ground without a Mac, it appears.
In an attempt to "showcase" how users can "explore, enhance and pursue their passions" with the OS, Microsoft made one of the new 'Start Something' ads available for download.
Users downloading the ad and using the Get Info command to check the EXIF information about the ad image quickly uncovered Microsoft's Achilles' heel: that information shows the image was made using Adobe CS - on a Mac.
