Nintendo has publicily revealed the name for their new console (the Revolution): Wii. Prounounced ‘we‘. Forget Revolution and Go: wii is the answer.
Wii sounds like “we”, which emphasizes that the console is for everyone.
Wii has a distinctive “ii” spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people gathering to play.
It’s about Wii, [...]

So it seems that Apple listened to the public and all the professionals who were complaining that they needed a pro version of the MacBook Pro. So what things did they improve on (apart from that gorgeous 17-inch screen):

8x Dual-layer SuperDrive (instead of a 4x Single Layer)
2.16GHz Core Duo
Three USB 2.0 ports (instead of 2)
One [...]

Sorry for the lack of posts…

…but for some reason I have been having trouble reaching the blog’s server and I couldn’t make any posts! I just hope I don’t lose any readers. I’m going to try and make a few posts tonight as there is lots of exciting news; Apple, Nintendo and PS3. Check back soon!

This is really cool (I over use that phrase here!) David Weiss works at Microsoft’s Mac Area, and gets to handle lots of Mac equipment. He shows us lots of Macs, they even had vintage macs such as the Mac SE, Mac Classic, Quadra 650 and others. Sadly they had to put those into storage [...]

As a long-time Apple and UNIX user/programmer, I never aspired to work at Microsoft. Then my wife got a job at Microsoft, so I needed to leave Caltech/JPL to work in Seattle. I didn’t actually apply to Microsoft — a friend of ours who worked there circulated my résumé and Microsoft responded rapidly and set [...]

Burst.com filed a patent counterclaim lawsuit on Monday accusing Apple of infringing four of its patents inside the iTunes Music Store, iTunes itself, iPod and Quicktime streaming products. Burst filed this counterclaim as Apple had asked the courts earlier this year to rule Burst’s patents invalid, and so Apple wouldn’t be infringing them. Burst said [...]

Sony’s PlayStation Portable (PSP) is a very popular device and has sold a few million units, but when compared to Apple’s iPod, the PSP lacks storage space. Luckily, the PSP has a built in WiFi card to make up for this disadvantage. With a few simple steps, all of which are included in this tutorial, [...]

This is one kit which I’m sure will sell well. This is a very interesting kit, which enables anyone to create their own faceplate for their Xbox 360. Nyko’s GameFace 360 kit allows you to create your own designs using their software and print it out on your home printer onto special paper templates. The [...]

Then came Michael Dell with the other side of the story. Why not put OS 10 on a far cheaper Dell Windows PC instead of a costly Mac? You’d get the best of both worlds and shell out far less.
In an e-mail to Forbes magazine, Dell said: “If Apple decides to open the Mac OS [...]
