So Jobs announced some interesting stuff at MacWorld San Francisco. One of the things he didn't announce is the new X11 server. Like I explained to a Windows fan boy a while back, I didn't become an Apple lover - Apple became a Unix vendor. One thing I didn't see mentioned on the Apple site is where to find the Aqua window manager. The X11 server seems to work fine, but the big news is the fancy window manager that makes X apps look just like Aqua apps. I was using the Fink XFree86 packages with blackbox (mostly because it's a fairly unobtrusive window manager), but it's just not the same. Anyway, the Quartz window manager is in /usr/X11R6/bin/quartz-wm so make sure you load it up. Otherwise, your X11 windows won't have any decorations.

I also like the looks of Safari, the new Apple web browser. When they said it was based on an open source rendering engine, I assumed Gecko (Mozilla). But it turns out it's based on KHTML (Konqueror). I just wish it had tabs.
