fail, Apple, fail

So, aside from not being able to tell the apple update software that I don't want their horrible browser on my computer every time they see fit to update iTunes or Quicktime, now, thanks to said upgrade of iTunes, their own installer has broken Quicktime on this machine.

And, of course, because it's Quicktime, once I fix the install I'll still have to go into the registry and remove their worthless "Quicktimetask -atboottime" key.

What ever happened to Apple, the company that actually cared about their users experience?

voice-operated camera control

Photographer and software developer Scott Forman has written software to control a Canon camera connected to a computer (think studio shooting) with voice commands.

Very very slick.
