CNET News.com reports that IDG World Expo has cancelled the Boston Macworld Conference & Expo. The event struggled the past two years after returning to Boston from New York City.
Wired News has an interesting article, entitled ”Meet the Apple Pack Rats,” that looks at some of “the legions of Macintosh and iPod users for whom the elegance of the user interface begins with the bold graphics and sleek texture of the box the new machine comes in.”
