TextMate ★: TextMate is a Mac OS X programmer’s text editor now in beta testing, supposedly slated for release in September. I’ll withhold judgment until it’s released.

More From Welch on Real ★: John C. Welch:

What’s even worse is that Real expects Mac iPod users to be even stupider , because you can’t use Harmony on a Mac, heck you’ve never been able to use the Real Music store on a Mac. If you log in to Real’s home page with a Mac user-agent ID in your browser, you can’t even see that there is a Real Music store.

So Real is effectively trying to lock Mac users out of this wonderful world of choice. What’s astounding is that in all the interviews with Real, no one is asking them about this.
