Microsoft cries foul over Google Outlookware
,----[ Quote ]
| If you install Google's new Redmond-battling Outlook plug-in, it
| automatically disables Microsoft's Windows desktop search service. And
| Microsoft is peeved.
|
| [...]
|
| "When a Google Apps user installs the sync plugin for Outlook, the plugin
| modifies a registry key which disables Windows Desktop Search from indexing
| and providing search functionality for all Outlook data, not just the Outlook
| data being synchronized from GMail. Because Outlook search relies upon the
| indexing performed by Windows Desktop Search, Outlook search functions are
| broken as a result," Microsoft's blog post reads.

Apple Warns Palm Pre Users: We're Going To Break Your iTunes Syncing
,----[ Quote ]
| Apple, however, has responded with a neat little message that never actually
| mentions Palm, even if it's entirely transparent who it's about, warning
| people that Apple can easily break syncing when it updates its software. Of
| course, Apple did it in a way that it can claim wasn't meant nefariously at
| all. All the company really meant was to make people understand that it has
| no control over how the Pre syncs with iTunes, and it's possible that an
| update could break that syncing. Sure. Right. Except most people assume this
| means Apple intends to break it.

Apple, Microsoft make mediocre moves
,----[ Quote ]
| I sat there shaking my head in disbelief as I realized I had just witnessed
| possibly the most disheartening Apple keynote in recent memory. Three years
| ago, Steve Jobs introduced the adoption of Intel chips in Apple machines, a
| move that would send its market share soaring. A year later he walked up on
| stage and announced the phone that would change the mobile world forever.
