Hmm, FrontRow was expected. I'm disappointed there's no TiVo killer feature out the box and glad there's no built-in iPod dock. It'd be neat if Apple built a TiVo killer, but a) they're just too damn politically correct and b) it's not in their b…

Here's what I really want to know about the MacBook: Can you right click? I'm constantly reaching for ctrl/holding down on the trackpad button for a right click action. It doesn't bug me that much, but still, it'll be neat if they do with the …

Touch-screen iPod? I hope not. I tend to navigate my iPod by 'feel' - the clickwheel has a nice grippy texture so I can operate it without taking it out my pocket. I wouldn't be able to do that with a smooth touch-screen. How many 'widescreen' vi…

Nice phone, same old interface. There's nothing quite like Nokia for an actually decent interface. A long time ago, I discovered a solution to the not hearing phone while listening to iPod problem: use my phone's radio w/iTrip. It sounds like iTr…

Based solely on the fact that Apple shares fell by 2% after Google/Napster talk rumors started, AppleInsider announces this to be a definite connection? IMO, AppleInsider has been the most reliable Apple rumor site (especially when ThinkSecret can't…

I'm not against the name. In fact, there's a lot in the name: MacBook Pro Implies Apple already has another product lined up: MacBook without the 'pro'. I wonder what'll be missing, aside from titanium casing? Maybe no dual-core? Maybe no cam?…

Why have an OS X virus scanner that scans for (a) common Windows viruses, or (b) Mac viruses? I'll tell you why! a.) Unfortunately, not everyone's a Mac user. If I send some poor Windows user a poisoned file, they aren't going to be happy. b.…

I'm actually expecting to be rather disappointed by the releases at this year's MacWorld. If as many products as expected are released, I reckon it'll be at the expense of quality. My PC laptop has two broken hinges, and at the cost of repairing …
