We’re excited about this month’s Worldwide Developers Conference and the forthcoming release of Mac OS X. We believe OS X will change Mac computing in the way that Windows 95 changed the Windows world. We’re eager to watch Apple’s changes to their venerable operating system unfold. Read more about the new state of Mac computing in our latest issue of Audacious Tidbits and Puckish Musings. Wither Microsoft? The judge’s finding of fact in the government’s antitrust case against Microsoft is having an effect on the way Microsoft does business and the competitive environment in which the company conducts its business. While it’s not illegal for a monopoly to naturally develop, it is illegal for a company to use its monopoly power to thwart competition and stymie inno- vation. Judge Jackson has ruled that Microsoft used its monopoly power in an illegal way. In late April the Justice Department and 17 of the 19 states that brought the anti-trust suit against Microsoft proposed to the courts that the company be divided into two separate entities; one would have ownership rights to the Windows operating systems and the other would receive ownership of the application software division and almost all of Microsoft's other products. Under the plan company executives could only own stock in one of the companies, and the two entities could not rejoin their efforts for a period of ten years. Ultimately it may not be direct action by the government to breakup or “hog tie” the com- pany that will have the biggest effect on the way Microsoft does business. We believe the free market is a far more potent force. The judge’s findings open the door for companies who have been injured by Microsoft’s illegal behavior to seek redress and compensation without having to prove that Microsoft has operated a monopoly in an illegal manner. Although we don’t like lawsuits as a remedy to problems, holding Microsoft accountable for its actions may change the company’s overly aggressive style of doing business. ATPM 6.05 ←→7 Welcome Emboldened by the government’s victory, competitors will find it easier to bring new prod- ucts to market and compete with Microsoft in the marketplace of new ideas. Windows may remain the predominant desktop operating system for some time. But the government’s anti-trust victory will hasten the day that the Windows OS takes its rightful place in the technology era as just one of many products that helped shape the way we live, learn, and work. We Beat the Street Last month Apple Computer released its earnings report for the 1st calendar quarter of 2000 (the company’s second fiscal quarter). Wall Street’s consensus estimate was that the com- pany would have net earnings of $0.81 per share. Once again Apple has pleasantly surprised Wall Street’s analysts. Apple’s results are as follows: • For the quarter, Apple reported a net profit of $233 million, or $1.28 per diluted share. • Excluding a one-time after-tax gain of $73 from the sale of 1.5 million shares of ARM Holdings plc., Apple’s net profit was $160 million ($0.88 per share), an increase of 72% from the year ago quarter. • During the quarter (which ended April 1, 2000) Apple sold 1,043,000 Macs, a gain of 26% over the prior year period. • Gross margins were 28.2%, topping the 26.3% a year ago. This was due large part to healthy sales of PowerBooks and G4s. • About 20% of Apple’s revenue came from Web-based, Apple Store sales. • Apple ended the quarter with $3.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents. • The company announced a 2-for-1 stock split, the first split since 1987. How ’bout an Upgrade? We’d love an upgrade card for our older Macs, but we’re talking about an upgrade of a differ- ent kind. What has kept Apple’s share price from reaching its full potential isn’t lack of faith in Apple’s near term performance, but rather, lack of confidence about the company’s long- ATPM 6.05 ←→8 Welcome term plans. The iMac by all accounts has been a phenomenal success. But industry pundits wonder what will sustain the company’s sales and earnings in the future. Flush with cash and rising market share, Apple should perform over the long-term at least as well as its PC hardware competitors. Last quarter’s stellar sales of PowerBooks and pro-level G4 mini-tow- ers should put to rest concerns Apple is a one product company. The rollout of Mac OS X and the company’s plans to win back professional customers provide an excellent road map for future success. We’re not asking Wall Street for special treatment—just an acknowledg- ment by analysts, rating agencies, and institutional investors that Apple Computer is here to stay. It’s time for more brokerage firms and rating agencies to re-evaluate their lackluster forecasts for Apple’s long-term growth.

  • Digital Video and Audio for Multimedia and Web Development? the Non–Definitive a to Z* Guide
    so you want to know about digital video and audio for multimedia and web development? The Non–definitive A to Z* Guide. © Michael Heller, Intern Cooper International Learning Center, Oberlin College A Presentation for the Five Colleges of Ohio Language Technology Initiative Summer 1997 Macintosh–based Web Authoring Workshop Macintosh is an excellent multimedia and web development platform due to its ease of use, its operating system’s provisions for cross–platform compatibility, and Apple’s Quicktime Media Layer (QTML). Multimedia projects developed on Macintosh using Macromedia’s Director and Authorware or Apple’s Media Tool can be viewed by most Macintosh (MC68040 and PowerPC) as well as most standard Windows-Intel workstations. In addition, web development on Macintosh is simplified by its intelligent graphical user interface and can be delivered to any HTML 2.0/3.0 compliant browser. A. What does that mumbo jumbo mean? It means that using Macintosh to develop computer–based video and audio materials is the way to go. Macintosh is especially suited to converting video and audio so that it can be used by most computers and on the web. B. So, how do I develop these audio and video materials? If you have an 8500 or 8600 Mac, then you have almost all the tools you need straight out of the box. The 8X00 series has a built–in Digital Audio/Video board which allows input (digitizing, or the conversion from analog to digital) of audio and video signals and output (conversion back to analog) of audio and video signals. Video Tools Eventually, you may need some additional software tools, but for beginners, Apple’s Video Player (1.6 in your Apple Extras folder) and Movie Player with Authoring extensions (2.5.1, in your Apple Extras folder:Quicktime Folder) will suffice for video capture and editing (including the audio soundtrack).

  • Really Useful
    Really Useful Technology For Students with Learning Disabilities Students with learning disabilities often have difficulty with skills others take for granted, such as reading, listening, spelling, writing, or organizing information. Appropriate computer software and assistive technology can make those tasks easier and allow a student to feel a sense of accomplishment. Feeling successful with technology can greatly boost an individual’s self-esteem and may even make neces- sary tasks enjoyable. However, not all software or technology is appropriate or useful for students with learning disabilities. The more care parents and teach- ers take to fit the software to a student’s specific need and learning style, the more useful the software or tool will be for that student. 1 It may help to keep the following suggestions in mind when choosing software for students with learning disabilities: ¡ The software should address the skill the student needs to learn and have levels that allow the student to progress. ¡ Computer displays should not be cluttered. Students with learning disabilities usually concentrate better with few distractions. ¡ Instructions should be straightforward. Long, wordy directions at the beginning of the program are frustrating to most students with learning disabilities. ¡ It should be easy for the student to correct mistakes. ¡ The program should be easy to enter and exit. Ideally, the student should be able to operate the program independently. ¡ The software should be fun and motivating with topics of interest to the individual. ¡ It should be easy to save the work. Students with learning disabilities should be allowed as many sessions as necessary to complete the project.
