  • What might be Teh Steve's overarching message for this mysterious upcoming transition? I'm thinking 'high def done right', or something along those lines. Steve would define this to mean HD offered in manner which leverages nearly the entire Apple p…

  • Has anyone gotten the update to work? The updater says it can't find my install, grrr. Guess it's back to Office 2003 in Parallels for me.... Agree with the comments above. How can the Mac BU ever catch up when their newest release is underwhe…

  • Such a shame that CS3 will leave XGA users behind - and for only one row of pixels!

  • Curious. Has anybody else noticed this on Apple's About 10.4.6 page? Quote: ? With the Mac OS X 10.4.6 system software update, PowerPC-based Macs will restart twice, instead of once, after the initial installation. Hmm, do I smell a bundled fir…

  • What would make even more sense is a smaller Apple Remote that stowed away in the ExpressCard slot.

  • Benefits: Mini-Disc recording, for one. My SO has a signifiant collection of mixes, and I've offered to rip them. The Toslink is much cleaner than line-in. Granted, this is a relatively minor nitpick. For my immediate need I've borrowed a friend…

  • Why would you choose to complicate a widget that appears on *every* window just to communicate a bit of information most users don't even need to know in the first place?

  • As a single-window app, Address Book used to quit on close. Apple changed this upon adding Bluetooth support, where an incoming call can display caller ID on the Mac's screen. To maintain the Bluetooth connection, Address Book must remain running, h…

  • Mr. Clean, what are your troubles/issues with PhotoBooth? I find it simple, attractive, and even fun. Sure, it's kind of gimmicky, but the gimmick works. I see people playing with it at the Apple store, and they're almost always enjoying themselves.

  • IMHO the iMac, in its current form factor, would look silly with a 23" screen. Imagine the size of that chin! But... since the Intel iMacs now sport a DVI output and desktop spanning, you can simply add a 23" Cinema Display to the 17" or 20" mode…
