Bill: And since that time, we’ve had a team that’s fairly dedicated to doing the Mac applications and they’ve always been treated kind of in a unique way so that they can have a pretty special relationship with Apple. And that’s worked out very well. In fact, every couple years or so, there’s been something new that we’ve been able to do on the Mac and it’s been a great business for us.
Steve: And it’s actually–the relationship between the Mac development team at Microsoft and Apple is a great relationship. It’s one of our best developer relationships.
Kara: And do you look at yourselves as rivals now? Today as the landscape has evolved–and we’ll talk about the Internet landscape and everything else and other companies that have [gone] forward, but how do you look at yourselves in this landscape today?
Walt: Because, I mean, you are competitors in certain ways, which is the American way, right?
Kara: We watch the commercials, right?
Walt: And you get annoyed at each other from time to time.
Kara: Although you know what? I have to confess, I like PC guy.
Walt: Yeah, he’s great.
Kara: Yeah, I like him. The young guy, I want to pop him.
Steve: The art of those commercials is not to be mean, but it’s actually for the guys to like each other. Thanks. PC guy is great. Got a big heart.
Bill: His mother loves him.
Steve: His mother loves him.
Kara: I’m telling you, I like PC guy totally much better.
Steve: Wow.
Kara: I do. I don’t know why. He’s endearing. The other guy’s a jackass.
Steve: PC guy’s what makes it all work, actually.
Walt: All right.
Steve: It’s worth thinking about.

Off topic :
Censure massive chez LiveJournal :
One now-deleted group called “pornish pixies” focused on fan-written fiction, frequently sexually explicit, about characters in the Harry Potter novels. “The distinction between fiction and non-fiction could not be made any clearer in a place like the Harry Potter fandom, and this oversteps the boundaries that the LiveJournal abuse team has,” said a “pornish pixies” member who identified herself as Maria in an e-mail. (A related group, “erotic elves,” has survived the purge.)
For its part, LiveJournal’s abuse staff has defended pulling the plug on the communities by saying: “Material which can be interpreted as expressing interest in, soliciting or encouraging illegal activity places LiveJournal at considerable legal risk.” That led one user, “femmequixotic,” to reply: “I list ’gay marriage’ among my interests—that is illegal in my state. With this wording my journal could be deleted, without warning, for the fact that I support equal rights of marriage for all.”

Tsss… Le coup de Mike Figgis retenu à l’aéroport, c’est un hoax. Ou une déformation de la part du Guardian, qui a rapporté l’info.
Mike Figgis: That TSA “shoot a pilot” thing was bogus
Figgis raconte que la formule lui est venue en tête mais qu’il ne l’a pas employée. Ni n’a été mis en quarantaine par la sécurité US.
Blah ? Touitter !
