Almost no one outside Silicon Valley and apparently few people in the Valley have bothered to look up what “Push” means. (And I’m not going to save them the trouble.)

It absolutely has nothing to do with “syncing”.

But who are most of the public facing Apple names? Marketing people. And who are the majority of Apple users? People who easily succumb to slick marketing. So accurate use of tech terms is definitely considered optional by all involved.

Disclaimer: I own several Apple products.

5 days and counting. I can’t access most mobileme things from my mac book. I have to use the web browser to do it. If you check the apple discussion groups you will see that a lot of people have the same problem. iDisk causes the finder to crash which causes time machine to fail. The only solution is to reboot from a terminal or hold the power button down.
