I think folks should cut Apple's tools team a little slack... on short notice they provided tools that allow us to build universal application with relatively little trouble all while adding in new capabilities and improvements.

I agree people should cut them a little slack, however I don't know about just how short notice they had. At some point in the past year, I attended a presentation by Apple people (thank you for the free food) at UCSD (it was during fall quarter) and when the question of the switch to intel came up, someone said that as part of the tools team, he had known about it since the beginning. (I'm not entirely sure why he said it since it was followed by some remark about how he had to keep it secret from other Apple people who didn't need to know.


I'd say they knew about it, they had time to deal with it, and they succeeded. The first time I tried to build a UB, it worked and I'm not talking about Hello World here. Basically, what I'm saying is there is no need to make excuses for them. I'd say the work speaks for itself.
