March 11, 2019 by Alexander Fox Leave a Comment

Windows 10, while still the most-used desktop operating system, gets plenty of flack. And it absolutely deserves it. Here’s our abridged list of things in Windows 10 that are as bad as stepping on a Lego. 1.

Microsoft, Apple and Burying the Hatchet

December 10, 2015 by Justin McGee 1 Comment

It seems that Microsoft is burying the hatchet with Apple. Well, that’s the advertising campaign anyway. Microsoft’s “Microsoft spreads the spirit of the reason on 5th Ave” advertisement is just under two minutes of peace, love and people wearing Microsoft t-shirts singing at the Apple Store on 5th Avenue. While this ad is obviously designed […]

Steve Ballmer Bans Apple Products for Clippers

September 26, 2014 by Noemi 2 Comments

It sure was big news when former Microsoft CEO (and employee number 30) Steve Ballmer bought the LA Clippers. Prior to him, the Dallas Mavericks’s owner, Mark Cuban, was probably the only “techie” owner in the league. (I could be wrong, though.) Source Now, in a probably not-so-surprising move, the new owner of the LA […]

How to Run Windows on Your Mac With Boot Camp

February 11, 2014 by Brian Meyer Leave a Comment

Once Apple made the jump to Intel-based processors the ability to boot directly into Windows became much easier. Every Intel-based Mac today comes pre-loaded with a […]

This Chart Shows Where Apple’s Money Comes From

February 7, 2014 by Noemi 6 Comments

Just how rich is Apple? Well, it depends on what measure you are looking at. Last year, Apple’s revenue was $170.910 billion, with its total assets amounting to $207 billion. No wonder they have all the money to deal with those lawsuits, huh? But where does all that money come from? To save you all the […]

Evasi0n Jailbreak Tool Posts Record Downloads

February 13, 2013 by Mel Leave a Comment

Apple has many competitors and rivals – among them Samsung, Google, and Microsoft – but one of its biggest “rivals” is not even a company but the practice of jailbreaking. Even though Apple’s engineers are working tirelessly to plug all vulnerabilities that developers can use to jailbreak its devices, it has been largely unsuccessful, only […]

Is MS Office Coming to iPad or Not?

October 10, 2012 by Robin Parrish 1 Comment

One minute it’s officially confirmed, the next it’s formally denied. This is exactly why I hate rumors: no matter what the truth is, somebody’s lying.

Microsoft Announces Surface Tablet

June 18, 2012 by Robin Parrish 11 Comments

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Apple should be feeling mighty proud tonight. Because Microsoft just unveiled its own touchscreen “Surface” tablet computer, and everything about the device and the media event where it was announced took its cues straight from Apple and the iPad.

Smoke and Mirrors

January 11, 2012 by Jayvee 6 Comments

Rumor has it that Foxconn, one of the China-based manufacturers is assembling the new iPad 3 and that it will begin shipping in roughly a month and a half. With huge demand for Apple’s iDevices around the world, it seems that only China can accomodate this massive scale and deliver iPad after iPad to the […]

Microsoft Office Coming to iPad

November 30, 2011 by Robin Parrish 1 Comment

For some people, this may be a harbinger of doom. For others (myself included), it’s cause to throw a frickin’ parade. Pages, Keynote, and Numbers are fine for the average casual user, but for true productivity, there’s only one productivity solution, and at long last it’s coming to the iPad.

Apple Gazette Reviews: Microsoft Office 2011

October 25, 2010 by Kevin Whipps Leave a Comment

A few years back, I went to the Apple store at my nearby mall and bought a 13-inch white MacBook, and a copy of Microsoft Office 2004. It was my security blanket, helping me make the transition away from the world of Windows, and it cost me a few hundred dollars. When Office 2008 came […]
