Usability: If ever there was a thing that attracts me the most in Mac software, it's clean UI design and usability. It's this thought-out approach that a lot of Mac devs have on their software.

What's this all about? A few years ago I cohosted this vidcast called Systemtrash. It has podfaded by now, but I had a series of interviews with some very famous people in the podcastosphere (Leo Laporte, Ze Frank, Marshall Kirk McKusick, Adam Christianson,..). Looking back I realize that those were the beginning days of podcasting. Ze hadn't even …

Do you love your Mac? I've got it easy. I'm an IT guy at quite a large company. That means, that when my Macbook gets stolen, I'll get a new one.

Customization is fun! I'm such a customization freak. There's nothing in the world I like more than tweaking my background picture, or messing around with icons in my dock. OK, not true.

When itunes just doesn't cut it... I'm a sucker when it comes to mellow music (can I say this 'sucker' or is this considered as explicit?). I really am.
