The first all-female Mac Jury panel provides some thoughts on the impending iPhone 3G release before diving in on what is needed in the Macintosh market from the women’s perspective. The group discusses some software they like, some software that they would like to see developed, and some product design that needs to be expanded with women in mind. These ladies aren’t bashful about their views, and no, they don’t answer to “MacChick.”

The anticipation for Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference 2008 is so intense that we had to convene a second panel to discuss it. A wish-list kicks off the session, with the jury agreeing on one product they would like to see while disagreeing on others. (Would *you* want a pink MacBook Pro?) The analysis then slides to what we can realistically expect and why, including thoughts on the iPhone and Mac OS. Chuck reveals why rumors are banned from MacJury deliberations, and the group wraps up thoughts on WWDC and Star Trek, The Google Factor, an enhanced .Mac and, of all things, styli.

Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard may not be the best choice for graphics professionals, and the panel discusses who’s at fault, issues surrounding application upgrades, the challenges of working with Apple and more.

The MacJury hears more evidence on the on-again, off-again Microsoft/Yahoo merger…or buyout…or whatever it is as you read this. The panel discusses the latest information, Yahoo’s motivations, Google’s involvement in the developments, and why you should feel sorry for Microsoft. Also on the docket is the question of whether current software such as iWork ‘08, open source alternatives and cloud computing make it possible to abandon the Microsoft Office suite.
