Nadyne Mielke of User Experience Research at Macintosh Business Unit regularly writes about the Mac experience on her MSDN blog called go ahead, mac my day.
Lazy Afternoon With MSDN Blogs
On a lazy wintery weekend afternoon while getting my daily quota of MSDN Blogs I came across this interesting post called what Apple news sites do you read? My first reaction was here comes an Apple bashing post specially considering Apple recently sued the pants off ThinkSecret and managed to shut down the website completely. But while reading the first couple of sentences I realized here is an actual Mac enthusiast working for Microsoft. This post lists 12 Apple blogs and rumor sites that troll the web for the latest news about Apple.

There’s lots of fangirls/fanboys at Microsoft. The Macintosh Business Unit is ~180 dedicated Mac geeks, and there are a few other pockets of Mac-ness at Microsoft (Silverlight, Core CLR, etc).
Here in MacBU, we’ve got several people who haven’t done anything besides Mac development in their professional careers. My manager was a HyperCard developer once upon a time.
