SO – Apple shares dropped 11% after Apple reported it’s MOST SUCCESSFUL QUARTER IN THE COMPANIES HISTORY yesterday afternoon. Yeah – you read that right…the stock plummeted. Why? Because Apple forecast lesser earning than analysts predicted that they would. Now, unfortunately, I am not an expert at this stuff – the stock market has always…
Apple today issued the following statement: Apple has discovered that many of the unauthorized iPhone unlocking programs available on the Internet cause irreparable damage to the iPhone’s software, which will likely result in the modified iPhone becoming permanently inoperable when a future Apple-supplied iPhone software update is installed. Apple plans to release the next iPhone…
‘Netbooks’ are doing really well right now. If you look at Amazon’s Top 10 selling computers they are ALL netbooks (except for the Macbook – which is more than twice the price of many of the other machines in the list) – so I can see where the rumor that Apple might be throwing their…
What’s that about the economy being bad? With the recent report from Moody’s Investors Service, it looks like some people are definitely feeling good.

Get locked out of our iPhone can be a depressing thing and there are many such samples around in life.

Anonymous sources have spoken with The New York Times, and claim that Steve Jobs’ cancer HAS NOT returned. While I’m not one to generally trust “anonymous sources” I would like to believe that the ones The New York Times spoke to recently are telling the truth. The Times claims that their source is very reliable…
Yesterday a variety of sites posted about Apple’s support page that “encouraged” users to install anti-virus software on their Macs. After it was discovered that the article had actually been up for an extended period of time, Apple removed it, saying that it was “old and inaccurate”. “We have removed the KnowledgeBase article because it…
Apple has posted yesterday’s Special Event in both Standard and High Definition. This one is a much more interesting watch than the iPod event from last month. These new Macbooks and Macbook Pros are absolutely drool-worthy (even if you don’t like the black around the screen…like me). I can’t wait to see one of these…
The Macworld rumors are starting to kick up – and since very few people seem to be buying the Apple Netbook rumor, an iPhone Nano rumor has now started to make its way around the blogs. Let’s think about this one rationally for a moment, though. Does an iPhone nano make any sense at all?…
At the end of the day yesterday, right after the markets closed, Apple again issued a press release that would have caused their stock to take a huge hit had they let the cat out of the bag only a few minutes before. This time it wasn’t anything as mundane as Steve Jobs not giving…
