It's amazing that some media companies can see the success of the iTunes store with 99¢ songs and expect that they can get $10 to $30 a month for a subscription to something as basic as a newspaper. I'll go 99¢ a month for a basic paper, maybe $1…

Who pays retail? B&N generally goes 30% off of best sellers with another 10% off if you're a "member". Sams is about the same price. And the warehouse clearance sales at bookstores like B&N will be in the $5 or $6 range. Now the …

While I don't see myself buying an iSlate for a while I general buy iLife and iWork when they are upgraded. What I would be looking for during this session is: - A "Dual Pack" of both iLife X and iWork X. - Some significant integra…

While I like the idea of donating through iTunes (and avoiding having my name on a few dozen more mailing lists) I would love to see other charities included. Doctors without Borders is one I would donate to - they were already working in Haiti whe…

Windows 7 comes out next week. What better gift could Steve J give MS than to deliver new hardware that runs 7? Even if OS X runs better? My guess now is new iMacs, Mac mini and MacBooks just to liven up the consumer markets. I'm sure MS wil…

My wife has the Air and I have the 13" MBP. Mine is far faster than hers is, has the built in SuperDrive and I wouldn't trade with her. On the Air side, she never uses a CD drive and prefers the lighter weight. She picked my MBP up the other da…

There is one factor in medical equipment that needs to be understood, and that is the costs of getting someone established on it, support in addressing problems and time to ensure they are compliant. I have sleep apnea (OSA) and started on a cpap…

It's pretty simple for me. I'm no longer technically oriented (fortunately) but I do know that Intel has released some new quad processors. I also know I'm ready to buy a new iMac as my original G5 iMac has a bad motherboard. So, adding these …

Ah well, no new iMacs today. With the i5 and i7 processors available now from Intel I don't think Apple has the luxury of waiting very long to remain competitive. Me? I'll keep my money until there is a quad iMac. Apple has the engineers and…

I'll pass on reaching for the credit card on a new iPod touch. My wife has a 3 month old touch, but I would have replaced it if there was a camera and video added. As it is there is no reason to spend the money. Maybe next year. I'll look fo…

Personally I'm hoping for the i5 and i7 chips Wednesday when we have the dog & pony show. I've held off buying an iMac simply because I want the mid-range quad (slower of the 2 i7s) unless pricing is cut on the iMac range to the point where I…

Snow Leopard or iPhone OS X? What are the primary differences? Various drivers? Different processors? WHy not bring OS X for Tablets to a midpoint where both can be used? It's probably a given that people would want to print with these dev…

I haven't read all of the posts, but I've turned off the "Favorites" option in Safari Preferences and it seems to be doing better. I'll see if the beach ball returns - I know I was seeing it too much before turning it off.

Flip of the coin for me. Just went through swapping out notebooks for both the wife & I. The better half got a MacBook Air and I went with the 13" MBP. Something might come out that is better - actually I'm sure it will at some point. Bu…

The only thing that I can see the depositions are worth would be to try to get proprietary information out of the executives. Fortunately that will be a little difficult as Apple will also have their lawyers there blocking questions. The best Ps…

Check out http://osx.hyperjeff.net/Apps/ They have close to 20,000 OS X apps - everything from freeware to full commercial packages. They also have a section for "Finance" as well as one for "Business".

I think Apple is getting ready to jolt the market and the stock market in the near future. The back-to-school special ends around September 1st and I'm looking for some new products at that time. When you think about it, Apple has the talent and…

MS has a problem with their retail stores - it's called sales per square foot. Apple, as I recall, sets the record in this metric. But they have the product to achieve high numbers. What does MS have that they can sell at full price in a stor…
