Xcode 4 is to Xcode 3 as Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is to Star Trek: The Motion Picture. It's not so much that the earlier offering was bad, as it is that the latter releases were amazing. That's right, the Apple LLVM engine is the Khan Noonien Singh of features, clearly a genetically engineered super technology that is beyond us common folk.

As I'm in the middle of rebuilding the company website and trying to ship the most ambitious product I've ever dared to tackle, I will not sing any further Xcode 4 praises today. But thanks Cupertino. And if anyone is a big enough nerd to recognize the Wrath of Khan reference I made in this post title, I tip my hat to my fellow geek.
