For the Bering Strait album, see Pages (album).
Pages is a word processor and page layout application developed by Apple Computer and a part of the iWork productivity suite sold by Apple for dollar|US$" target="_blank" >*79 in North America (£55 GBP in United Kingdom, €79 in Ireland). Pages 1.0 was announced at the beginning of 2005 and started selling in February 2005. As with most of Apple's other recent software, Pages runs on Mac OS X only. Pages 2, part of iWork '06 was introduced at the 2006 MacWorld Expo.

History


Pages on Mac OS X is the successor of Apple's multipurpose office suite AppleWorks. The first rumors of a new Apple word processor to replace AppleWorks circulated the Internet through Mac rumor websites in 2003, suggesting a new software package to be released by Apple called "iWorks" or "iWork". Many Mac users were expecting the new program (which rumor sites then claimed would be called "Documents") in 2004 after reading the rumors. Steve Jobs, Apple CEO finally announced iWork '05 along with iLife '05 at the beginning of 2005.

There was a program of the same name made for NeXT computers by Pages Software, Inc., including similar WYSIWYG page layout features as Pages for Mac OS X. Since Apple acquired NeXT in 1997, this has led to suggestions that these programs are based on the same codebase. Apple has not commented on this issue. However, since Pages Software's NeXTSTEP assets seem to have been acquired by a Chicago-based IT solutions company, this speculation appears to be unfounded. It is known that Pages for OS X was developed by the same team that developed Keynote 2, a presentation program included in iWork.

AirsoftRadio for Friday, September 8, 2006This episode is dedicated to Chris Charlton.Airsoft Radio is now being broadcast at 9:00 PM Sundays inChristchurch, New Zealand on 107.4 MOFO-FM (a REAL radiostation).  http://www.mofo-fm.co.nz/  http://www.cafepress.com/mofofmWe were going to do an interview with Chris Charlton in theUK about the Airsoft ban, but he passed away due to a heartproblem.  More information can be found at:  http://www.airsoftcommunity.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=80435We're glad to hear that John is back safe and sound fromthe Big Sandbox.  PLEASE NOTE, I said the episode was fromJanuary 24, 2006, it was reall from February 24, 2006.Here is a link to the episode he appeared on: http://media36b.libsyn.com/podcasts/airsoftradio/AirsoftRadio_2006-02-24_copy_1.mp3On the tear drop shape being the most aerodynamic, here is howa rain drop is REALLY shaped (thanks Shade!):  http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/raindropshape.htmland here, as promised, is the e-mail I received about the shape with the lowest drag (don't bug Fred, he was niceenough to reply!):  Fred Haan  Professor of Aerodynamic Engineering  Iowa State University  Lance,  I can only answer briefly. Essentially, the teardrop shape  is the lowest drag shape. That is why low speed airfoils  have that shape. I do not know much about rain drops. The  link you sent looks reasonable as to what their shape is  and what the relevant forces are (surface tension versus  aerodynamic pressure). The folks over in meteorology would  probably be able to comment more on the shape of rain drops.   That is just a really quick summary there. I hope that helps.  -FredAnd here is a link to the BB energy calculator at Arnies:  http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/?filnavn=//articles/fps_limits/fps_calc.htmMusicDeath and TaxesTrustDavid HendersonWired for LoudThe Real DealAnother Place in Time Do me a favor, do the "Lance Drill" and let me know how you like it! :) -Lance
New show, recording tonight
Sat, 09 Sep 2006 00:09:00 -0000
It's been a while since we've put out a show.  Sometimes things come up that distract us from the show, but we're back in the saddle again.  With all the content we have for tonight it will probably be a multi-hour show (I hate editing them, but you guys love listening to them...)  It should be released before the end of the weekend, so check back again soon.-Lance
