  • No Clive, we are not stupid. We just go to the gym when we want to work out instead of huffing 80 lbs of computer hardware up and down stairs!
  • For all you who can't wait for G5 Powerbooks (or even iMacs) take a look at what Macwhispers just posted: http://www.envestco2.com/macwhispers...ves/000078.php Just something to get your hopes up 8)
  • Don't know if this is true, but someone posted on Macnn forums that they checked E-trade tonight and that Apple stock was already up to $26 after closeing today at $19. This is one reason why I doubt this is an Apple teaser...they might get in h…
  • According to this article in todays Seattle Times Microsoft is planning to charge more for much less then .mac offers:
  • Looks like we are getting a good deal at $100 a year for .mac:
  • Two Points. First, the Crystal Clear Savings promotion on Powermacs and displays runs out at the end of this month so that could indicate a timeframe for new Powermacs to be released. Second, is that I am actually incouraged that there was no "ref…
  • Toshiba is still selling the 5GB drive used in the iPod for $399. You can't expect Apple to lower its prices if their suppliers don't lower theres. Seems Toshiba has a bit of monoply at the moment on drives of this capacity that are small enough for…
  • Working in OSX, but not OS9...wierd? Maybe. Possible? Absoulutely! I have been living with just such a problem for the last 6 months. I have a Wallstreet Powerbook that is 4 years old. If I boot in OS9 it will usually start up, but after a few m…
  • I noticed the other day that every page under a tab on Apple's website had a different color theme. I don't go there that often so I wasn't sure if it was new or not, but seemed to me an indication the Jaguar would probably let you at least choose o…
  • I think the main problem with Apple is that they just make these statements without supporting them with reasons. If there is a good reason, like the one explained here, why 4mb or less cards can never be able to accelerate OSX then tell us that and…

  • I just got back from Japan and noticed that prices of iMacs went down 20,000 yen (about $170) a couple of weeks ago. The prices of Powermacs also were reduced. The yen has gotten about 10% stronger in the last few months so that could account for th…
  • My girlfriend just bought a new 14 inch iBook (new 700Mhz version) that comes with 256 MB of memory. Unfortunately, it is using two seperate chips so upgrading means taking out 128 out first. When I went to put in a 256 MB chip out of her old Powerb…

  • I finally got tired of doing endless cleaning cycles on my Epson 700 and gave it away to some poor friends. I have been researching a new printer and have pretty much decided on going Canon. I am most impressed with prints from Canons and I like the…
  • It just seems to me that when you run a test that is so out of line with expectations, like the FPU scores those German dudes found, you ought to start questioning the tests ability to accurately measure what is being tested instead of assuming that…
  • My girlfriend was wanting to get the soundsticks so I did a bit of research. Seems most people agreed that they sounded great if you were sitting in front of the computer, but weren't so great for filling a room with sound. For a bit cheaper the the…
  • Movie DVDs have copy protection built in that prevents them from being copied. Recently some music companies are doing the same to their CDs, which will make it impossible make copies or even load tracks onto an MP3 player like the iPod. For wha…
  • First there were rumors of a new version of iPhoto coming out this month, now there are rumors of a new version of iMovie coming. One of the biggest reasons to upgrade software is to support new hardware. Perhaps some connection here. One kind of de…
