Apple needs to quit crashing my browser.
I’m trying to type up a blogpost discussing all the new stuff Apple released today, and just went through the classic bloggers horror story. Spending 30 minutes typing up the perfect entry, linking everything in and then having the browser crash losing it all. I know, I know, I should type it up in a text editor and then copy and paste it over, but I didn’t.
Regardless, Apple has changed their website to incorporate these nifty intro videos to their new products. If you click on an product’s page, you see a quicktime video that eventually freezes into the menu. Neat idea. Very pretty. And they’ve crash my browser THREE times now.
My glowing review of some of their new products might not be so glowing when I type it up for the third time.
Hey Apple…. Knock it off.
UPDATE:
I finally finished typing up my first impressions of the new Mac offerings, but my browser has crashed two more times. I will totally avoid Apple.com until they remove those quicktime videos that are on just about every page. Oy.

SO, have you learned your lesson? Don’t ever do that again (type in directly rather than into a wp doc)! I just got a copy of the NICE mini-conference material and see that you are presenting.
I will try to make it! I am so far behind the tech curve on pods, etc. that it will be refreshing to learn about it.

I am so angry about quicktime videos crashing my browser.
Any time a site has imbedded quicktime, it wont play the sound and then the browser crashes.
Everything worked fine until I got the latest version of quicktime, and since then I’m not able to watch quicktime video.
I’ve tried re-installing quicktime, messing with the settings, everything…. just doesn’t work.
Screw apple.
