Slingplayer For Mac OS X Officially Released

After months of empty promises and false starts, Sling Media has finally publicly released a Mac OS X version of its SlingPlayer software. Now, users of Apple’s candy-coated operating system can enjoy running Slingbox, slinging, if you will, their media from point A to point B.

The SlingPlayer software appears to be a Universal Binary, meaning that it’ll run natively on both the new Intel-based Macs and the older PowerPC-based systems. You’ll need to be running Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or later to get in the hot public beta action and you’ll need the appropriate home network setup in order to fully enjoy the benefits of Slingbox.

Good, now Mac users can get in on that hot “place shifting” action. It’s about damn time.

Microsoft Packaging for Vista and Office 2007 Revealed

Microsoft, planning to lure you into using Windows Vista and Office 2007 for the rest of your life, today reveals the packaging for the upcoming products, going with a rounded design reminiscent of a 1950s toaster. Let’s let the Microsoftians damn us with their faint prose:

Designed to be user-friendly, the new packaging is a small, hard, plastic container that's designed to protect the software inside for life-long use. It provides a convenient and attractive place for you to permanently store both discs and documentation. The new design will provide the strength, dimensional stability and impact resistance required when packaging software today. Our plan is to extend this packaging style to other Microsoft products after the launch of Windows Vista and 2007 Office system.
