Leopard Purrs but not without a hair ball
Like all the other Apple nerds in the world on Friday, my brain didn't wander far from the 6pm release of Mac OS X Leopard. I arrived at the local West County Apple Retail Store promptly at 5:50pm. As I walked in, I saw a line that started near the ... |

An Open Letter to Steve Jobs
First off Steve, I highly doubt this was a decision made recently. My guess is that this twist was in the playbook a while back, probably pre iPhone release. With that being said, this is brilliant marketing. By lowering the price by 1/3 or $200(r... |

iPhone email, how do you have it configured.
The first couple weeks that I had my iPhone, I was using POP3 to retrieve my mail from google. I have my domain setup through Google's hosted service. To make a long story short, this didn't work so well. If you want the details just google and you... |

Apple iPhone 8GB reviewed by a very satisfied BlackBerry Pearl user.
Way way back in the year of 2006 when Apple released the news that they were working on the iPhone, I didn't really blink an eye. My wife, on the other hand, was immediately interested. First let me say that she is not the typical business user. My... |

Spring Cleaning delivers a needed tutorial for OS X users.
A month or so ago, I got the keen idea that I wanted to replace a 19" boat anchor of a monitor with something flat panel to gain some desk space. This altruistic goal was accomplished after a 20" Samsung wide screen display showed up on my do... |

Missing Sync for Blackberry Released
Back in January, I made a comment on my blog about Mark/Space releasing Missing Sync for Blackberry. A week or two back, they came through and I have to say it was worth the wait. Anyone still using PocketMac should stop what they are doing, uninstall ... |

Missing Sync for BlackBerry
This is my call for Mark/Space to hurry up and release Missing Sync for BlackBerry. While I love my new BlackBerry Pearl, it is easy to tell why PocketMac is free. Besides crashing all the time, it also has a tendency to duplicate data and not pick... |

Macworld Tshirt
A friend from work was fortunate enough to attend Macworld 2007 and kind enough to pick me up a tshirt from the company store. Check out the tshirt, I absolutely love it! The Apple snobbery is second to none. |

MacBook Pro too hot, try this!
I picked up the following application called Fan Control and have had a "cooler" laptop ever since. It's simple and effective, just what you would expect on this platform. |

Apple support was impressive
The night before Thanksgiving the hard drive in my two month old Mac Book Pro shot craps. What an unlucky night for such an unfortunate event to happen. After all, the Apple store near my house was obviously closed on Thanksgiving and the genius bar... |

Rant: Steve Jobs Macworld Keynote
I'm not sure about everyone else but I was disappointed that Steve's keynote was not available via the iTunes music store. This seemed like the ideal place to offer it since the introduction of all the video. A Quicktime feed isn't optimal by any me... |

Alex's first laptop
Thanks to Alex's grandparents, my parents, Alex received his first laptop as a Christmas present. It was nearly the perfect gift but it needed one additional tweak in order to fit in at our house. Can you guess what that tweak was? Hint: One of ... |

Boy do I love Christmas time
As my wife and I are out shopping this weekend, I decided to make a purchase for myself. After all it's better to give than receive right. So I gave to myself. I walked past the Apple store several times and eventually gave in at a moment of weakne... |

Poor Man's Spam Filtering Solution
As I stated 107 days ago, the amount of Spam that I receive is increasing each month. I am using SpamSieve on the client side but this approach still requires me to download the spam and allow Apple's Mail Program to throw it away. While this does s... |

iTunes 4.9 - Podcast comments
After downloading iTunes 4.9 early this morning and moving all of my podcasts from NetNewsWire to iTunes, all I can say is that this integration is phenomenal. Before NetNewsWire would pull all the rss feeds and save rss enclosures to a particular ... |
