Others have brought it up in this thread already, but it bears repeating. How many of you have actually experienced an e-ink screen? No doubt a bright, colorful, high-resolution screen is nice. That same backlight is also incredibly stressful on …

With the replier who commented that this "review" was incredibly mean-spirited, I have to agree. Microsoft has its flaws, but Office:mac is really one of the better products they've put out. Also, all the talk about using an outdated system, defin…

You know... I do think we pretty much agree on pretty much all points here, just approaching it from different PoVs. As for scaling pictures, to be honest I'm not certain. My phone has a MMS resolution feature on the camea image quality setting …

Okay, if Apple were to release some sort of MMS widget that would automatically scale down photos and limit text in a MMS message, that might be an acceptable workaround, but the point is why are we needing a workaround in the first place? To ans…

Compared to what some of you are asking for, my stuff seems really underwhelming... I want a magnetic latch, a real 10-key pad (I despise using the one on the MBP), and SSD as an option (assuming it's not too expensive)

NeoOffice is a very good alternative to Office. It's basically a Mac-native version of OpenOffice, designed to integrate with OSX better and uses an Aqua interface. It also has the benefit of not needing X11, which is how OpenOffice works under OS…
