My mother is a big fan of the iPad my wife and I bought her for mother’s day, and it’s completely changed the way she does things. She hasn’t been in Barnes & Noble in over four months, and she used to spend a good portion of her free time at the bookstore. For her, […]
Mount Your Mini Under Your Desk
I get inspired when I see people modifying their workspaces to better accomodate their needs. For me, desk space is pretty critical. I’ve considered making some kind of under-desk dock for my MacBook and running a single large monitor instead of the dual setup I have going now, but I just haven’t made up my […]
27-inch LED Cinema Display Available Now
After quite a bit of waiting, the new 27-inch LED Cinema Display is available now for purchase at the Apple Store online, and it’s shipping in 1-2 weeks. So what’s the big deal? First off, the monitor itself is pretty amazing. 2560X1440 resolution and a 16:9 aspect ratio isn’t too bad. Then combine the LED […]
What’s Next: The Mac Mini Gets Updated
Yesterday, I asked what was next for Apple, and I hypothesized that it was the living room. Yesterday, Apple came one step closer to making that a reality. It’s a new Mac Mini, all freshened up and what-not. The case is all new, whittled from a fresh piece of aluminum like the MacBook Pro and […]
Going to College? Buy a Mac and Get an iPod Touch
It’s no secret that Apple is huge in the education sector. They’ve had an education section of the Apple store for years now. I remember the Apple store in my school’s MU back before OSX made its debut, back when I doubted I’d ever purchase a Mac. How things change yet stay the same – […]
The Winners of the MacKeeper Giveaway!
You may remember that a few weeks back we held a contest to win a free copy of MacKeeper, a utility for OSX. We got together a crack team of people, designated with determining who should win the contest. After much deliberation, a few fights and a missing finger (don’t mess with my donuts), we […]
Help Me Buy 2 New Macs
Buying new Macs. Now I know my geekiness is shining through again, but the truth is that few other phrases can fill me with such excitement. Sometimes, the mere anticipation of getting a new Mac is almost more exciting than actually buying one. Almost. It’s like this: because my husband and I are such firm […]
Be Still My Beating Heart: Apple Rumored to Put HDMI in Mac Mini
[Photo from Apple Insider] Wanna know how I spent my Saturday? Of course you do, why am I even asking. Well, I got a new part for my truck, and to get it, I had to drive back and forth between downtown and the boonies to borrow another truck. Afterward, I wanted to check out […]
Apple Announces New iMacs, MacBooks, Minis, Magic Mouse… Whoop De Doo.
In case you didn’t quite get it, notice the sarcasm when I said, ‘Whoop de doo’. It’s like Apple announcements are always TOO hyped up. Honestly. As much as I am an Apple Fan Girl, I can only muster so much enthusiasm about something that’s not so ‘revolutionary’. For this month’s Apple announcement, they released […]
