Camino has some big things on the horizon for the .9 release. One thing that it will gain that no other browser has currently (except for OmniWeb, but thats a paid product so I won't count it) is reorderable tabs. The other area where Camino excels is it's bookmark management. Being able to...

$239 is the Education price, which they are not really checking on. My guess is that you got the Education discount. I just bought AppleCare for my Powerbook the other day, and got it at the education price. They never asked for verifiable proof that I was a student.

When I sent my PBG4 in back in February, it only took 3 days - and I live in Atlanta. They replaced the latch, replaced the inverter, and some other part I can't remember. If they have the part in stock, they are usually quite fast.

I love my Aluminum Powerbook G4 1.25ghz 15", but I have to say I have had some serious issues with it. Granted, I bought it as a refurb, but the people posting on the Apple discussion boards prove that this isn't an isolated incident. First, shortly after I purchased it, I had two issues. The...

As an owner of a 3G iPod, I have to say that I believe this is ridiculous. The iPod is not marketed, sold and promoted as an "upgradeable" device. Sure, it would be nice if Apple made some of the new features available to the previous generation iPod owners. But from a business stand point, I...

I bought my G4/1.25ghz DP last year for $1199. You still can't get them for that price used on eBay. I bought my Powerbook G4/1.25ghz 15" Aluminum refurb in late January for $1999. At the time, the new models were $2499, so I saved $500. The PB had to go back in to Apple to be fixed (white...

Yeah, he would have FIRED your arse and had security drag you and your things out to the parking lot. Later, when you tried to get another job in Silicon Valley, you would find out that Steve-o called all of his pals in the industry and essentially black listed you. But hey, throwing punches...

Runs just as fast as Panther on my hardware: PM G4/1.25dual and a PB G4/1.25ghz.

The build shown at WWDC by Jobs was newer than the build that developers received. Since it takes at least 10-14 days to press the DVDs, the WWDC build shown off was probably at least 2 weeks newer. Other things that were different from the build Jobs demoed... Automator is called "Pipeline" in...

With nearly a year before Tiger ships, we will most likely have seveal more revisions. Remember, 10.2 had 8 revisions in it's lifetime. I'm betting we'll at least see 9 for 10.3 before Tiger's release (not counting Security Fixes).

I know it must really suck to be the authors of either Konfabulator or LaunchBar today. But let's face facts. Apple didn't rip either off. Konfabulator's "widget" idea is nothing new. It is very similar to Apple Desktop Accessories, which were pre System 7. Also, DesktopX was available on...

Not yet. Using my $129 to get in iSight, so I hope it comes soon.

I've been hoping Apple would release something like this for the last year or so. Now all Apple has to do is make a "solution" for quality iPod output in your automobile, and enable make the next gen iPod WiFi enabled to bypass the computer altogether.

It's been delayed until this fall. Aparently Microsoft had a harder time with the integration of the VPC team in to the MacBU, among other reasons.

A color screen is a bad feature for the iPod, unless of course Apple is planning on adding some other functionality. Still, I hope Apple is smart enough to realize that the iPod is a success because it does one thing - play music - really well. The best way to keep the iPod successful is to...

Apple making a PDA like device has been one of the most persistent rumors for years now. I don't think it will ever happen (unless it's an evolution of the iPod). Jobs has been quite clear that he feels the PDA market is an area not worth being in. I have to agree. Convergence has made PDAs...

Hmm. When I raised some concern awhile back about Adobe cancelling Premiere, I was shouted down as an alarmist by many on this forum. "Adobe will never cancel Photoshop" was a line that many shot back with. Well, consider this: Adobe cancelled the Mac version of FrameMaker - and kept the...

The state of web browsing under OS X is incredibly strong. All three gecko based browsers are starting to really mature. Camino development has picked up lately (check out the new icons/look in the nightly builds - purdy!), Firefox is going to be the best cross platform browser available, and...

The 5.0 beta crashed inside of 5 minutes of usage. I really like the tab implementation, and I give the Omnigroup kudos for stellar UI features. But I've never been able to use any version of OW for more than a few minutes before it crashes - and this goes back to OS X 10.0. In that span, I've...

Bought a used B&W G3 on eBay before Christmas. It arrives with a smashed case and it won't boot. Buyer is less than helpful, and suggests I file a claim with UPS, which I do. UPS comes and picks up broken G3 and inspects it, then ships it back to seller. UPS goes on to deny the claim. Buyer then...
