After all the speculation and whatnot, Apple has released the OS X 10.4.3 update into the wild. You can now download it. The file size is 97MB for users who are updating from 10.4.2 (like me) but if you’re a 10.4 and 10.4.1 user then it maybe more. According to Apple, this update includes fixes [...]

This is truly horrifying ;). I previously mentioned a site, SmashMyiPod.com, which is “dedicated in raising $400 to buy and iPod and destroy it inside the Apple Store they bought it from“. I was bit skeptic seeing the early photos which looked like they weren’t taken inside the Apple Store. Now I know why, they [...]

Macenstein’s sources report that the Tiger update to 10.4.3 should be happening sometimes this weekend. The update is expected to be around 100MB and contain fixes for nearly all the bugs in 10.4.2 and some that it didn’t fix. As soon as I get home from Hungary I will run Software Update and see [...]

1 Terabit per second Fiber

Linking in with the previous post about Japanese Internet speeds, a Japanese power company achieved a rate of 1 Terabit per second. They used a 2 Hour movie to test speeds, coming in at 1/2 a second to trasmit the whole file. It is “the world’s fastest speed achieved with fibre-optic cables“. Cool, eh?

I have been looking to see when My Xbox will go live, well now it has. This lets you create and view your Gamercard (mine seen above) which you can use on the 360 when it comes out. It also lets you see which of your friends are online (I have 20), what games they’re [...]

China has more than 28 million broadband lines with a penetration rate of only 2 per cent. South Korea leads the world with a broadband penetration rate of more [...]

I haven’t talked about the PS3 in a long time because of all the news around the Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Revolution. This is quite big news, but it seems fake. Engadget says that they received the “tip from some guy who kind of knows somebody who is friends with a dude at Joystiq [...]

I didn’t want to have a picture of Bill Gates here so I used the Windows logo instead.
This article tells you 14 interesting facts about Bill gates that you most likely didn’t know. There is a short excerpt below, so if it interests you then read on.
8. In Harvard he got bored and passed most [...]

I just found this while looking over the posts on Joystiq on the past couple of days and I found it really interesting. Nick Puleo (from Evil Avatar) had a look at at the Xbox 360 kiosk in the Phillipsburg (NJ) Wal-Mart. He wanted to see what sort of juicy content he could take [...]

This is huge:
“As of early October this year, we had agreed with all key partners that a global ship date of June 2006 was achievable,” said one of SPOnG ’s several sources associated with the Revolution manufacturing process. “Nintendo will get the launch in Japan and America and Europe as close as possible. It will [...]
