Intel iMacs can reportedly have CPU upgrades very easily. (If you believe a French news site’s translation of a Japanese source.)

I never quite paid attention either to the fact that SafariStand (the only Safari extension I use, because I occasionally need a Mozilla-like sidebar) can change Safari’s window themes, because it used to make them rather ugly. Turns out the latest betas do Unified (and variants), and that makes Safari look pretty cool. (Funny though how SafariStand’s own sidebar fails to use unified toolbars.)

For those interesting in “pimping” Safari, SafariStand offers a host of other functionalities that I don’t quite need, such as history/bookmark search, a tab bar with thumbnails (which I don’t use because it doesn’t disappear automatically when you only have one tab open, and doesn’t have an associated shortcut — I’ll try defining one in the system preferences to see if I get around to using it), search engine keywords, site alteration, and a bunch of additional configuration options.

iTunes 6.0.2 can apparently now display half-star ratings. I didn’t find any way to set them in the iTunes interface, so I suppose it’s only for control-freaks using Applescript. Which is… I don’t know, it makes kinda sense, but at the same time it’s pretty absurd.

I’m no using Butler (again) to rate my songs, so I’ll wait until it’s updated to support that.

I want to make my own Yojimbo clone (only simpler, yet better, and free of course, because I don’t care for the hassle it must be to make people pay for your software). I need a crash course in OS X development, Objective C and CoreData, for C++ or .NET veterans.
