The Apple Design Awards reward applications that stand out, that define the Mac OS X experience and that make the Mac the best operating system by virtue of the quality of the applications that run on it. I would like to congratulate Panic for winning Best Mac OS X User Experience with Coda and Blizzard for Best Game with World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade. Both of these applications are outstanding at what they do, push the limits of Mac OS X technologies and drive us at Apple to continually improve Mac OS X.
Of course Blizzard is closer to my heart, so I invite Mac users that play and enjoy Blizzard games to congratulate them for their exceptional work. Blizzard has kept Mac gaming alive through the difficult years and are now driving the development of OpenGL, not only on Mac OS X by constantly pushing the stack to its limits and helping us improve OpenGL, but also by actively participating in the OpenGL ARB. They have my utmost respect and they totally deserve this award. Congratulations again.
