Its a shame that using a PPC Mac is less and less viable. I mean it was bound to happen and when you think about it, the last PPC Mac was released in 2006 which is now 8 years ago. Changing topics... for Intel Macs, iMessage and FaceTime are my p…

Boooo I use iPhoto A LOT. They'd better not remove functionality in yet another stupid software dumbing down exercise. Also I don't want my photos in the cloud. Can't wait to have features removed then have to wait ages for them to be re-added..…

Well thats rubbish. What if you want a normal sized phone with the latest tech, in metal not Plastic? Apple has banged on about the perfect 4 inch size, so they should continue having a 4 inch model at the high end. 4.7 inches is too big. Yuck.

Two step authentication is not changing anything. The apple discussion forum thread show there have been cases today where the password has been changed by apple and then the devices re locked. Something bigger is going on and its localised to Aus…

On a Clean Install with files copied back manually and applications reinstalled there should not be any issue.

The issue is a poorly made OS. Its running terribly on a friend's 2011 iMac, 2011 Mac Mini and 2010 Macbook Pro (Off the top of my head)

I ran Lion on a 2008 White Macbook from day 1 and while it was a bit sluggish, it wasn't big ridden.
