For once we are ahead Smile

Firefox dépasse les 20 % de part de marché en Europe:

Selon Xiti, une entreprise de mesure et d’analyse de l’audience des sites Web, Firefox vient de dépasser les 20 % de part de marché sur le vieux continent. La France se situe un peu en dessous de cette moyenne avec 18 % alors que la Finlande, la Slovénie et l’Allemagne ont passé la barre des 30 %…
Pour finir, une pré-version de Firefox est disponible pour les Macs Intel sur le blog d’un des principaux développeurs Mac de Firefox. Attention, ce n’est pas une version universelle mais uniquement Intel.

Download Firefox 1.5 for Mac Intel only

Sandvox

The new Sandvox web aauthoring application that is to compete with Apple’siWeb can be found here. I haven’t tried the app yet, but give it a go. Since the system requirements are quite steep on the iLife ’06, you might not need or be able to run the full package, so Sandvox might be your best bet if you are in the need of a web authoring application.

Stripped down keynote…?

No Gravatar

Mike Evangelist on writersblocklive.com has mentioned it before and apparently it was the case this time.

There should have been “one more thing” to Steve Jobs keynote at MacWorld the other day, but one noted Mac writer said a well-placed Apple polisher told him the black-turtlenecked one’s speech had to be adjusted at the last minute.

According to David A. Utter on webpronews.com who quotes Leander Kahney on Wired.
Way cooler than remplacements for the 12′ and 17′ PBs… G5 remplacements? Or what? I must admit that the keynote seemed a bit like a re-run when the iLife demo was on – new features yes – but nothing ground breaking… Only time or Steve Smile will tell…

Apple Store Luxembourg officially opening soon?

No Gravatar

Apparently, Apple has finally begun accepting orders from private individuals living in Luxembourg. The store is not yet “really” online as the entry URL is for entreprises only. However tracking the package goes through this link http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/luxstore?type=bizbelfrLUX&qprm=82404&orderStatusSelfService=yes. I have successful ordered and almost received an item (the TNT guy passed here today), so I guess you could say that the store is open.

According to a reader at apple.lu:

je viens de téléphoner au num. du site et ils m’ont dit qu’il n’y a pas de problème pour se faire livrer au Luxembourg, en plus ils m’ont proposer de me faire un cadeau ou une remise si je commande.

In short it is possible to order and receive delivery in Luxembourg, and they even offered the caller a gift or a discount if he would place an order Smile
So use this link to enter. Eventually this one should take you to the Luxembourg front page… Currently it is redirecting to the Belgian Apple page for iPod and iTunes…app
