 Technical Note TN2063: Understanding and Debugging Kernel Panics
However, most panics are the result of unhandled processor exceptions in kernel code, such as references to invalid memory addresses.
For each line of the panic display, the name of the kernel source file and function that displays that line is given, followed by an explanation of the information on that line.
While the information in a panic dump may have been cryptic at first, it should now be just another debugging tool available to the Mac OS X developer.

  Commentary: Apple's woes arise from its niche market | CNET News.com
Apple's basic problem is that its market is restricted mainly to a group of devoted home users, many of whom bought iMacs 18 months ago and who now have no reason to replace them.
Apple's vulnerabilities are compounded by Jobs' own tendency to focus too much energy on just one of the many balls that must be juggled to drive business success.
That means Apple should schedule new systems to the buying rhythms of that market, where most users will replace their hardware about every four to five years and will look for add-ons in the interim to extend the abilities of their present systems.

 What's a "kernel panic"? (Mac OS X)
A kernel panic is a type of error that occurs when the core (kernel) of an operating system receives an instruction in an unexpected format, or that it fails to handle properly.
A kernel panic may also follow when the operating system is not able to recover from a different type of error.
The kernel panic text is added to the log the next time you restart the computer, assuming that you have not reset PRAM at the same time (the kernel panic text is stored in PRAM until you restart).

 Apple isn't Dead
And so, there is no panic at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, Calif. The computer maker believes that Microsoft and the entire PC world are about to enter a challenging period of transition, similar to the one that Apple is completing in its shift from Motorola Inc.'s older chips to its PowerPC microprocessor.
Apple executives also predict that with price cuts planned for their machines this fall, and with the arrival of an updated version of Apple's operating system in the middle of 1996, the company will be able to hold its own against the PC world.
Apple executives also dispute a widely held view in the industry that software developers, the companies that create the programs that work with an operating system, are losing interest in the Macintosh.

Three special cases are Apple hardware related that may give some peripherals difficulty, namely Mac OS X 10.2.5 has been known to kernel panic at certain USB hubs, and it is recommended you upgrade to 10.2.6 to avoid this issue.
If you experience a kernel panic with a specific software, be sure to inform the developer what version of their software you are using and with which operating system it happened.
When installing or removing RAM, be sure you know how to install it without breaking the clips, as Apple may not cover the break of the clips under warranty, and only install RAM that is listed as customer installable for your model Mac, otherwise take it to an authorized service technician to install.

 Top 10 Apple Myths of 2006: Osborne Effect
According to Orlowski, Apple would not only face major problems migrating to Intel processors, but was really on the wrong path.
Instead, Apple shipped the first Intel Macs several months ahead of schedule, and the full transition for Macs was complete by Apple’s summer WWDC event.
Clearly, Apple engineers better understood the issues involved in migrating to a new processor than Orlowski or the bloggers reflecting his panic mongering, despite the Cell being “talked-about” last year.

Apple released iTunes 6.0.2 on January 10th, but two days later avid Mac users discovered that the software quietly communicated information over the internet, both to Apple and to a company based in Orem, Utah.
When Apple introduced the "Just for you" suggestions area of the iTunes Music Store I sent a feature request to have the suggestion engine offer to scan a user's library so the suggestions were more relevant.

 Apple: Innovator & Oppressor of Independent Software: | MetaFilter
Unless Apple actually used Proteron's code in their implementation, which would be amazingly unlikely, I don't see that Proteron has a case.
Furthermore, it's clear that Apple is not completely averse to purchasing third-party utilities and bundling them with the OS, since they've done it plenty of times already.
More troubling to me is that Apple has moved the controls for default browser and default email client from System Preferences into the Preferences windows of Safari and Mail, respectively.

I tried to see what the bears saw, but the only excuses I found were "Apple beats estimates, but not by as much as expected," "Apple guides higher, but not as high as some hoped," "Apple revenue forecast not as high as some hoped." These explanations seemed like stretched, baseless guesses.
Apple was the most active stock on the NASDAQ (excluding the NASDAQ-100 trust) with nearly 100 million shares traded.

There were rumors that Apple did quietly lay off the Cube development team a few months back, but Steve Jobs expressly denied that claim, despite Apple's official policy of never commenting on rumors.
The fact is, if Apple has laid some people off, it's hardly the sort of panicked, emergency cost-cutting bloodbath that seems to be all the rage in the rest of the tech sector.
Apple's official spin on the sitch is as follows: "Apple continually reviews its business to ensure we are operating at maximum efficiency.

Looking at the Apple Menu we were struck with the realization that, although we used these tools pretty much every day, they were all pretty poorly designed.

Apple Panic is a very early Lode Runner-style platformer that is not as good as that classic, but merits mention as one of the first platformers made for PC.
In Apple Panic, your goal is to dig holes (or fill them up again) to trick monsters to fall in.
If you have played Lode Runner, Apple Panic won't feel any different except for the higher difficulty level, mostly as a result of time constraints and precise-to-the-pixel digging requirement.

Apple sank faster than the Titanic, down 27 3/4 to close at 25 3/4 on mind boggling volume of 132.4 million shares trading hands, making AAPL the most active issue of the session.

Apple’s Professional Video and Audio applications might not be as trivial to port although most of the modern suite should have no problem.

 Myth 2: Greenpeace Toxic Apple Panic
Each press release issued by Greenpeace was met with headlines that uncritically regurgitated the story that Apple was the grinch who stole green, and was contaminating the planet with toxic machines.
Greenpeace reports targeted Apple, not because of anything related to environment issues, but because falsely vilifying Apple got it attention in the press.
That report contradicted the earlier claims made by Greenpeace; however, the press release that accompanied it ignored the facts found in the lab to repeat further claims that were not true.

 Boing Boing: Apple to add Trusted Computing to the new kernel?
Apple may never implement this in their own apps (though I'll be shocked silly if it isn't used in iTunes and the DVD player), but Trusted Computing in the kernel is like a rifle on the mantelpiece: if it's present in act one, it'll go off by act three.
It means that the price of being a Mac user will be eternal vigilance: you'll need to know that your apps not only write to exportable formats, but that they also allow those exported files to be read by competing apps.
So that means that if Apple carries on down this path, I'm going to exercise my market power and switch away, and, for the first time since 1979, I won't use an Apple product as my main computer.

This is especially odd because I wasn't generally an Apple II owner; I had an IBM PC that I did all my BBS transactions on, and while I did get an Apple //c in 1985, I couldn't connect to AE lines or do Cat-Fur transfers or any of that Apple-Specific stuff.
The name "Apple Mafia" isn't a brand or functioning corporate entity; it is, even by his own admission, an informal coalition of Apple pirates and phreaks who used many of the same BBSes to communicate with each other.
Yet he is offended that the new crowd (2 years later) is unfairly claiming the reputation of the previous Apple Mafia and using it to further their ends.
