Unstable iMac?
Charles Cook comments that the new G5 iMac doesn’t look stable. I thought that about the new LCD displays too, especially the large 23″ and 30″ ones.

I thought I will like ecto 2’s WYSIWYAG editing capability. I was definitely excited by it. Before I go on though, let me explain my expectation of this feature.
From the screen shots and description, I imagined that it would work similar to Dreamweaver or even Frontpage! What do I mean by that? I expect the ability to switch between HTML code mode and Preview mode seamlessly (in ecto 2 they are called ‘HTML mode’ and ‘Rich Text mode’ respectively). This will allow me to compose new blog post in HTML mode, add link, add html tags, etc. while switching to Rich Text mode as a form of quick preview. I understand that the Rich Text mode is not designed to be used like this, but hey, it is there someone will use it this way 🙂 And by switching modes between HTML->Rich Text->HTML (I will call this ‘mode flipping trick’ from here on), I do not expect ecto to generate additional html tags for me.
