When I was a kid, I was pretty obsessive about my toys. I was big into Legos, G.I.Joe’s, and most of all, the Transformers. I loved watching the cartoons every morning, then playing with the toys shortly after. Those were the days. Since then, various Transformers games have come around, including a console game for […]
New AppleTV Coming Soon?
Oh, the AppleTV. I have one myself, and although I do appreciate its usefulness, it’s not quite everything that I was looking for. I’d like 1080P resolution, and a bit more flexibility with my library. But alas, that’s not set to happen anytime soon, so I just deal with it until I buy a Mac Mini […]
Tech Support: I Need Your Help
As you may know, I’ve been working on building a media center for my home, A few months back, I bought a portable hard drive and started burning DVDs – ones that I legally own, mind you – and putting them into iTunes. I had a few hiccups, but it was going well until I […]
Apple’s Data Server Center Ready Soon

Here’s the scoop: During Apple’s Q3 2010 earnings […]
Firefox Home Approved in App Store
When Mozilla first announced that they were putting Firefox Home [iTunes Link] out into the iTunes App Store, there was some question about whether or not it would be approved by Apple. The theory was that Firefox was putting out a mobile version of Firefox for the iPhone, and that’s a big no-no with Apple. […]
Cutting the Cable: Apple Rumored to Establish 99-Cent iTunes TV Show Rentals
There are quite a few people out there who have official cut the cord with the big cable companies, instead deciding to go with Hulu and iTunes for their daily dose of TV. Frankly, it’s something that I’ve considered doing myself. I pay $90 a month to DirecTV, and I don’t have anything special with […]
The Case of the Disappearing iTunes Movies
I’ve been watching a lot of movies recently, and when you spend your days watching a flick in the corner of your screen while working, you can burn through a lot of movies quickly. Since I’m in the process of digitizing my movie collection, I figure that it makes more sense for me to buy […]
Integrating the iPad
My mother loves her iPad, but that’s no surprise. The other day she told me about how much the iPad had changed her way of life and the way she did things. No longer did she have notebook after notebook of lists and notes; instead, it was all on the iPad. It got me thinking […]
Rumor: iTunes in the Cloud

Angry Birds & Angry Birds HD
The iPhone as a gaming platform has been pretty successful so far, but for me, it’s not really for serious gaming. I look at the iPhone as a device for casual games that you can play in the waiting room of your dentist’s office, but not for hours of play like I’d spend on Super […]
