One area I believe that Apple is playing catchup to MS in is the included video player. Windows Media Player (especially 11) is far superb to Quicktime as far as features. You can get all WMP’s features and more in Quicktime, but it’s thirty bucks. Now we’ve moved one step further. [...]

That’s it. They’ve done it. Microsoft has released the ugliest current-gen console ever. I actually kind of like the Elite. I’m partial to the white (green on white is my favorite pattern). But what is this? Seriously. It looks like something from a “Who can create the ugliest [...]
Man, do I hate reporting on rumors, but I haven’t posted in a couple days so here I am. macScoop claims that a trusted sourceApple is ,“headed towards the release of a notebook that is so small and light that it could redefine the standards of ultra-portable computing.” That would be awesome, right?

Ultimate Extras was one of the incentives for springing the extra cash it cost to “GO ULTIMATE!!!” (sorry, when I think of people getting Vista Ultimate, I think of people falling for those ridiculously annoying commercials with the big echoey “ACT NOW!” voices… “GO [...]
By ‘Other’ ADC members (both select and premier), I mean the ones that did not attend WWDC. All Apple developers can now get their hands on Leopard for testing, porting and developing purposes. There is nothing that the seed won’t have that the WWDC DVD has/had. It is the same version issued [...]
Well, today’s the day. June 29th. The arrival of the iPhone. A couple days ago, the tech editor for the New York Times, David Pogue gave the iPhone a good review but called EDGE “excruciatingly slow.” Ouch…if you didn’t have something up your sleeve. And, ladies and gentleman (mostly gentleman [...]
Yes, that’s right. Yet another reason to upgrade to MacBook Pro (I realllllllly need my macBook keyboard though… ). I read about it in MacDaddy and I thought I would pass that along to those of you who didn’t know yet. If you ask me, Apple should list that on the features [...]
