We miss you Steve!

We need USB3 now. Large file transfers and backups are painfully slow over USB2. Ubiquitous, cheap Thunderbolt storage devices are unlikely in the forseeable future.

If that WWDC2011 graphic is anything to go by, it looks like there might be new styles of app icons.

I have some friends who needed smartphones and would have preferred an iPhone, but they ended up getting Android phones instead. Going on a waiting list was not an option. This same story must be happening countless times every day. No wonder Androi…

I think the new design looks great, and I'm guessing it will feel like a nice solid slab in the hand. One thing that bothers me is the front-facing camera which is off to the side. Although I've seen it done this way elsewhere, I can't help but thin…

It doesn't make sense to me that Apple would include FW800 on the mini. My guess is that it will be a USB-only machine. Also, I doubt there will ever be a desktop HDD in the mini. Although performance would increase, so would heat, noise, and power …

Mel, the US government has always done that which suits its strategic interests. To think otherwise is naive. You don't need to get on your high-horse and tell the rest of the world how grateful it should be. That is offensive. For better or worse, …

We got our MB at DG in Windsor House in Causeway Bay. My girlfriend's parents live in North Point, so it was reasonably convenient. Unfortunately the upgraded RAM they sold us has been giving us grief. It could be worth taking tonton's advice and…

Indeed, there could be a hint of citrus tang here. Fortunately I was able to get a refund for the Corsair RAM today, and I found a Mac parts dealer who sold me 2x2GB sticks of "Apple spec" Kingston RAM for a reasonable price. I haven't tested the MB…

I agree with everyone complaining about the lack of functionality. To those who basically say "stop moaning it's meant to be just an ipod", well, that's an awesome piece of hardware+OS for just playing media, and why include Safari? There is no d…

I agree with g17uk's last two paragraphs. Even when I first heard that there was going to be an iPhone, I was expecting that it would be an "internet-Phone". Apple has always been ahead of the curve and a driver of new technology, often with ideas t…

The G35 chipset includes X3500 integrated graphics, which will be an excellent upgrade for Macbooks.

An image of the Sun is central in all those banners... I can't help but feel there's some connection with Solaris, more than just ZFS.

In my experience, I've found that a faster hard disk has a major effect on the overall snappiness of the system. Unless something is seriously lacking in another area, this is the best upgrade you can make. It's much more noticeable than a CPU speed…
