Drovak speculates:
Adobe could port its Creative Suite...to Linux as a shot across Redmond's bow. Then the company should embrace Linux in-house and develop a complete, optimized Linux OS designed to run a high-performance version of its Creative Suite on Linux optimized for Adobe products, to be sold as a bootable bundle for multicore-workstation hardware.

The idea is to produce a near-dedicated Adobe computer designed to use all the power of the newest chips to run the Adobe software under Linux. Having complete control of a high-powered OS would make all of the performance-demanding Adobe software run rings around any other implementation, if engineered correctly. It would become the viable desktop alternative to both the PC and the Mac.

This is a similar strategy that Apple did to create a good Unix based platform (OS X) to run the Apple iLife and the pro-apps. So, it's a tried and working concept. I think Adobe should certainly go for it. I would even go a step further and suggest they should drop Windows support eventually and concentrate on their Unix based Adobe apps only to streamline their operations.

Google is experimenting and will soon launch a new social bookmarking and commenting service that is much like Digg, but will work on any keyword. This may change the way SEO is done and I can already see hordes of fakers trying to manipulate the system.

If you're reading a Web page and want to go back to the last site you visited without leaving the current site you're on, there's a simple trick to allow you to do so. Hold down the Command (Apple) key and click the Back button in Firefox or Safari. The site you're currently visiting remains open and the previous site you visited will open in a new tab.

Have you noticed that screenshoots you make with the key command Apple-Shift-3 or Apple-Shift-4 are somewhat blurry and not pixel perfect? That is because by default the screen-shoot format is a made as a jpeg set to resolution 60. That's pretty low and therefore it produces small file sizes which is good for most uses, but not if you want to see every pixel in detail...

I was looking for a good way to implement a simple theme switcher for creativebits' light theme and found this competition on smashing magazine. The winner has a very sexy OS X style box that moves around and allows switching between several themes. I think it's an overkill for our purposes, but it is certainly inspiring.

As long as we're on the topic of Leopard. Has anyone had experience recovering from a crash with Time Machine. And I'm just fishing here, but has ANYBODY had experience with Time Machine that worked across a network over multiple machines? i.e If you have multiple macs running Time Machine how would it work exactly? They would like to buy an xserve for our department and keep saying Time Machine would solve our back up problems. Any thoughts?
