The Guitar Collection: George Harrison, is a multimedia tour of the former Beatles' iconic guitars

A new app for the iPad, The Guitar Collection: George Harrison, is rather like a little pocket book of the former Beatles’ most famous axes. It features the history, pics, guitar model specifications, and historic photographic images of the iconic instruments.

Kanto AV's Yaro digital audio system is a perfect home theater companion for the Apple TV

The 2-channel 100W RMS packs a powerful barrage of sound

But it turned out to be about the loudest, most responsive, richest, most faithful sound-media player I’ve heard.
