The Pixelmator Team (http://www.pixelmator.com) has updated Pixelmator — a US$59 GPU-powered image editing tool for creating, editing and enhancing still images — to version 1.6.1.

As I suspected, Apple’s Tim Cook isn’t considering going to HP as CEO, despite rumors to the contrary. Eric Savitz of “Barron’s (http://blogs.barrons.com/techtraderdaily/2010/09/28/apple-cook-not-going-to-hp/?mod=yahoobarrons) shoots down the rumors.

He says he talked with Gleacher & Co. analyst Brian Marshall, who follows Apple. Marshall says he had just spoken to Cook about the rumor.
