  • I paid $15.99 for Beejive and don't regret it at all. Very solid application. When the app is closed it sends a push email to my mobilme account, notifying me someone had sent me a msg. You can also email yourself chat logs when they get too long…
  • To the OP. Check out PocketDemo Dimensions in the app store. Has 13 measuring tools and it is only $1.99 seems like it is well thought out with a slick interface. don't have an iphone or touch to test it out, but it seems like a useful app …
  • Here a good article by Maximum PC that will guide you on how to run windows games on Linux I still think you will have a better experience running Windows on a boot camp partition.
  • yep. partition magic It is a WIndows application so you need to boot into a windows OS and install it. Then mount the drive use partition magic to make 100 GB of unformated space. It will retain your data and move it. then boot into OS X an…
  • Got a few questions for those of you who are using the netflix streaming service. How is the selection? Can I watch all seasons of 24? How is the sound quality? What is the video quality? Full screen mode possible? thanks
  • thank you for sharing. Glims is exactly what I was looking for to enhance Safari. There were some features in FireFox that I was unhappy to not find in Safari For those of you who want to check out Safari 4 but don't want to sign up for the Apple…

  • I wouldn't hold my breath. This probably won't come out for a while. Nvidia probably needs Apple's help to get an Apple non PCI Express 2.0 card out. And Apple would most likely prefer you purchase the newer Mac Pro towers. You best bet, if you n…
  • This test seems a bit off to me. It seems like they were using VMware 1.0 instead of 1.1 The latest version dramatically improves performance over 1.0 I recently downloaded both demos and found VMware faster than Parallels. . I also found Par…
  • The speed difference between FW400 and 800 is noticeable when moving larger files. Not so much when moving 100 MB's or so. Of course FW800 will be faster even then. But not so noticeable Personally I would go for the FW800. Just a nice option to …
  • while they won't always have the cheapest prices mwave is pretty decent. still prefer newegg over them.
  • How is the ACD 23" for gaming? based on Apple's website the ACD's have a pixel response time of 14ms. I think the Dell is lower. Anyone play FPS (UT2004, Quake4, etc) games online with the 23" ACD with heavystuff going on? thanks.
  • keep in mind. Parallels currently doesn't have a simple uninstall option. If you don't like parallels VM software, you will need to go into the CL and uninstall it. Their website has a forum with details on what you need to remove. But it may be a b…
  • Gaming on the macbook is great. I played F.E.A.R. with settings pretty high and got good frame rates. Half life 2 runs smoothly as well. haven't played online yet, since I am just running through the single player. multiplayer is where it real…
  • It's really dumb how some companies still design websites/intranets/extranets specifically tailored to one browser. It's rare but you still bump into a website that is IE specific. IE for Mac is outdated and pretty much crap. If you are on PP…
  • damn. that is good news. now I have to get a macbook pro. I wish Apple threw in the Nvidia 7800 GTX mobile version, but it seems like the ATI x1600 is no slouch for game play. thanks to everyone for checking out how games play on the intel macs
  • It would be nice if they offered a 3rd option for the faster 2.0 Duo chips. Acer and other companies will be shipping with the faster chips. Maybe that will be reseved for the 17" MacBookPro. Just wish Apple had the same parity with other PC manu…
