> Arment walked me through the numbers. He has 25,000 subscribers who pay $1.99 a month. Apple takes a 30 percent cut, leaving Arment about $35,000 a month.

> This cost of putting out the magazine is a bit over $20,000 per month. It comes out every two weeks, and each issue costs about $10,000. Roughly $4,000 goes to writers. The rest goes mostly to copy editors, illustrators, photographers and editors.

> These options can be invoked by holding their respective key combinations immediately when powering on the system; however, if you use Apple's Bluetooth keyboard, you could find that the system may ignore these inputs and boot normally. While you might assume that these options require a USB keyboard or other physical connection, this is not always the case. There are a couple of workarounds if you find yourself in this situation.

> I often find myself wishing that I could retrieve something that I had cut or copied earlier in the day, or maybe even longer ago than that. So I decided to make an archive of my pasteboard, and store it on Dropbox so I can easily retrieve something later.

**** Deciding If Time Machine Should Back Up Dropbox ****
<http://tidbits.com/article/13575?rss>
Alicia Katz Pollock, TidBITS


> When I initially discovered my Dropbox files on my Time Machine backup, my first reaction was to exclude the files from my backup. After more thought, though, I realized there already had been times that I had deleted files from my Dropbox folder that I could have rescued via Time Machine. But if you have a Dropbox Pro account with Packrat enabled, or simply aren’t worried about needing to restore a deleted file more than 30 days later, you might prefer to save some space on your Time Machine drive.

> The improvements in the new version of TextWrangler, which include Retina display support, cosmetic refinements, and better feature organization, mirror similar upates to BBEdit 10.5, released back in December of last year.



**** Reader X 2.0 ****

> The idea behind Reader X 2.0 is that you can browse articles in your Google Reader account as a “wallpaper of news”. Forget the usual sidebar/folder/content pattern: headlines are the main content area of Reader X, which puts the focus on browsing several articles at once rather than having to check every few minutes to mark as unread and “get the count to 0”. You can do that if you want, but it’s not what Reader X wants to focus on.
