Seems obvious to me that Apple is doing this for 2 reasons, both of them legal in nature. First, it encourages Mac users not to be instrumental in inadvertently passing along Windows viruses in attachments, which does happen. And secondly, to re…

The cost of the iPhone as it now stands doesn't seem as big an issue to me as the cost of the AT&T plan for using it. Seriously, $70 a month for a barebones plan, limited minutes and no text. Apple needs to get AT&T to push the cost down a l…

This is very likely an OS X problem, not a hardware issue. I have a four-year-old iBook G4 and this problem happens with me too. It also happens with a 2002 iMac and my new 2008 iMac. When I boot the latter into Windows, the wireless is flawless. …
