It’s taken me 20 years to finally find a task manager I’m happy with. No variation in any PDA I’ve used has passed muster: either they’ve lacked features, or suffered from confusing interfaces, or both — and I’d inevitably end up abandoning them for a simpler system. Then I started playing around with 2Do from [...]

As an iPhone user I have always shied away from cases as I have never found one that enhances the design of the iPhone rather than devaluing it. But the latest version of Grove’s Bamboo case for iPhone 4 is a game changer. It is hands down the best case I have ever used or [...]
Ever feel like Steve Jobs is messing with you just for fun? That’s what I thought when I opened up iTunes 10 and saw the minimize, maximize, & close buttons on the left hand side of the window, instead of aligned at the top. Moving the buttons over there goes against everything OS X design [...]
With the announcement of Apple TV it’s never been more apparent that physical format is dying and your collection of DVDs is becoming more obsolete by the day. However, that doesn’t mean you have to purchase all your favorite movies again just so you can enjoy streaming them to your iOS devices. Here we’re going to show you how [...]

It only takes five Quick Steps to integrate iChat with Facebook’s web-chat client and because Facebook uses the Jabber protocol it’s incredibly easy to set up and use. First you’re going to need to get [...]
Got an old lamp-style iMac sitting dusty and unused since you first swooned over it back in 2003? Gut it, install a Larson Scanner Kit into the base and plop it on your head and you’re ready to attend your next Halloween party as… well.. take your pick? iMaCylon? Cyclops from the OS X-Men?

As much as I love my MacBook, I can’t imagine anything worse than a world where everyone’s computers are made by one company.

All I see are Macbooks, MBP’s, and Mac Pros at school. Of course, it is art school in SF. The labs are beautiful, row after row of Mac Pros. The library filled with iMacs. It’s a small heaven.
Cheers,

Yeah Mizzou! We like Macs a little bit.

Yep, it’s the same here in Oklahoma. Only about 20% of school-owned computers are Macs, but probably 40-50% of laptops I see are Macs.

I’m at University of Missouri and the majority of our journalism school students use macs. According to their website it’s almost 100 percent.

True Story: While I was at law school I attended a guest lecture by a lawyer for Microsoft who was explaining the legal tactics they used to combat spam, phishing, etc. I was sitting near the front, with my PowerBook G4, taking a few notes. In strolls a classmate of mine about 10 minutes late. He unpacks his laptop and unveils yet another Apple symbol in the room. Macs make up about 1/4 of the laptops in the room at this point. The guest lecturer stops at this point and says “O.K. I think this is a new record. What is this, 1, 2, 3… 10 Macs in the room? Jesus.” At which point my friend the latecomer pipes up and says, “Well actually, mine’s a PC. I just stuck an Apple sticker on it ’cause I like Macs.” To which Microsoft’s counsel replied, “Okay, fine. Nine and a half macs.” It was a very good lecture.

OK, I’m a total neurotic, but I fear Apples takes over the computer market and “they” decide to start making mac os viruses that will really clutter our defenselles machines. After all, I’ve never had ANY anti-virus running in my macs.

I asked a professor friend of mine about this, and this is what he said…”yeah basically they can get a free iPod Nano when they get a Mac, so the kids all buy the laptop for the iPod”. Doesn’t really matter to me why they are buying them, they are buying them. Time to buy more Apple shares.

Spend over a thousand dollars (plus tax) to save maybe 150 on a nano. Maybe, maybe not. Maybe they just like the Macs. Great picture with those little white apples all aglow.
