This is an unfortunate response coming from Apple. Based on the dozen or so anecdotal reports from individuals/bloggers/engineers that I've read, the half-dozen youtube videos I've seen, friends that I know first-hand experiencing the issue, and eve…

As much as I haven't enjoyed the flaccid response from Apple regarding the very real antennae issue(s) (see the quantitative Anandtech testing), this guy certainly takes the cake. I'm shocked that SJ would continue to engage him in conversation. Sad.

The author is intentionally conflating two separate issues in order to downplay the problem with (a subset of?) the iPhone 4 devices. As has been repeated a thousand times, all cellular phones --- and all RF devices --- will have their signal str…

Similar to the article about the antennae issue from Price Mclean, this one misses the point and (I feel) is intentionally conflating two separate issues in order to downplay the problem with (a subset of?) the iPhone 4 devices. As has been repea…

Beautiful little device... and I understand that it would be difficult to fit the board and cooling requirements of a discrete GPU in the tiny case and that they would rather have Nvidia's 9400 than Intel's graphics, but still, spending close to $10…

While it may be an upgrade to the existing Macbook Pro 13", it still is pretty bad. For god sakes, the next-generation ATI Radon 5000 series having been out for ~6 months. The mobile parts haven't been out as long, but still it's been quite a while,…

I finally gave up on Apples cinema displays since they've taken so long to update them. Even when the 27 comes out, I wouldn't be surprised if it's far more expensive than equivalent units from competitors. Check out this new 27" IPS from Dell. I…

Unless you are recording clips on your cellphone or cheap point&shoot, why in the hell would you record at anything less than 720P? Especially considering decent HD video cameras cost the same as SD cameras from only a few years ago. 960x540 fo…

Apple definitely has been in the lead regarding advanced, graphics accelerated user interfaces and desktop compositing, but this article neglects to mention some significant issues with Apple's history with graphics hardware. 1) Although it has d…
