Rewind efficiently and continuously records your Mac's screen so at any moment you can rewind to see an 'instant replay' movie of the last 60 seconds of what was shown on screen. Rewind keeps tracks of places and times in a Calendar view that displays days as vertical timelines filled with colored bars for places you've visited. You can tap each interval to add a note (for additional context) and, if automatic tracking wasn't perfectly accurate, you can make manual adjustments to. Apple's QuickTime is the go-to Mac OS X app for video playback, but there's more to QuickTime Player than meets the eye. You can rewind and fast-forward movies, increase the audio level beyond the slider limit, and even scrub frame by frame through the movie like you can in Final Cut Pro! How You Rewind Me Lyrics: I never made it as a lineman / I couldn't cut it as a Pittsburgh Steeler / I'm tired of loosin' all the time, man / But sin keeps sendin' my defenses reelin' / And this.

Full interview, 57 minutes:
Apple Startup Sound NOT Iconic! It's Actually Ear-conic!
Composer Jim Reekes describes the work involved and thinking behind the two and a half second Mac OS startup sound, which contains 'a lot of thick, rich sonic textures behind it. It's in stereo sound, fades back and forth, there's a little bit of a stereo reverb' and more.
'It had enough richness in it that it would sound recognizable no matter how you played it.' Jim Reekes said.
His sound is even immortalized in the Pixar motion picture Wall-E.
Regarding the recognizable nature of his Mac OS startup sound creation, Reekes hints his humor side. He said instead of iconic, the Mac startup sound can be considered 'ear-conic!'
Let It Be, Let It Beep!
Jim Reekes also explains the story behind Sosumi.
Back in the days, the Beatles (Apple Records) was suing Apple Computers Inc. for anything related to music. The reason being that Apple Records believes customers might somehow confuse Apple Computers with music from the Beatles' Fab Four.

Sosumi is a witty attempt to bypass a lawsuit.
When he created the sound in 1989, Apple sound designer Jim Reekes originally called the the xylophone sounding Sosumi Mac system sound 'Chime.' But the Apple Legal thinks the name is too musical.
So Reekes immediately joked about changing the Mac system sound to 'Let it Beep,' a spoof of Beatles hit song 'Let it Be.' Someone took him seriously and said he would never get away with it, so Reekes responded with 'so sue me.'
The result is the name 'Sosumi.' Reekes speculates that the lawyers did realized what it meant but willing to let it go, with their sense of humor. Leap mountain mac os.
