These days it seems everyone wants to know how much profit Apple makes on each and every one of its products. From the Mac Pro all the way down to the iPod and its newest product, the Apple TV. How much profit does Apple make on the Apple TV?
The OpenOffice team has finally released a version of the OpenOffice suite for Mac OSX Tiger (version 10.4.x) that doesn’t require the X11 environment to be installed in order to use it. This is an alpha release and it has a number of limitations which detract from it being, well, useful.
That’s right folks, everyone’s favorite Mozilla based browser for Mac OSX has been updated to version 1.5 and includes several additional features and improved features.
The rumors were true! It was bound to happen at some point in time; Apple’s MacBook Pro line has received the coveted Santa Rosa chipset upgrade as well as LED displays, and a few other upgrade goodies today. After all, us Mac forecasters can’t possibly be wrong all the time, could we?
You can now officially allow your excitement to peak for the first time since we saw the beauty of the iPhone back in January: last night, Apple released 3 iPhone commercials that aired on tv, and those commercials confirmed rumors that the iPhone will hit AT&T and Apple retail locations June 29th.
I know this was in a flurry of other Apple news and I didn’t have a chance to announce it, but Apple TV got a serious kick in the pants; previously holding only 40Gb of content, it can now be purchased with a 160 Gb hard drive, a serious step up from its previous place. Now the Apple Tv is something not only worth buying, but also considering for the next step to HD streaming.
All the “I’m a Mac” commercials and recent advertising campaigns have really stirred up a hornets’ nest of conversation surrounding Apple’s best of class operating system; all the naysayers who previously stuck to their Windows guns still aren’t considering a switch to Mac hardware, but rather are insisting (quite fervently) that Apple will HAVE to take OS X public at some point to really achieve success in the real world. There are a few reasons why this will never happen, so do two things: read the reasons, and then cope with the fact that you will never run OS X on your Dell-configured PC. Never.
The only thing holding back the tidal waves of excitement about the release of the iPhone is that Apple has not announced an official date; it is very hard to take off work, pack your tent and thermos and prepare for a campout when you have no time frame to work with. Well, AppleInsider is reporting that a credible source claims June 29th could be the official day of release, as discussed in privileged circles at Apple retail stores.
There are just some applications that every Mac user should get for their Mac, some may or may not apply to you but I tried to select applications that should appeal to all walks of life.
If you were considering a leisurely visit to your local Apple haven to test and or pick up an iPhone on launch day, perhaps you should reconsider; Steve Jobs, his high Appleness, said the one thing not to do is visit an Apple store, lest you find yourself camping out amongst other pilgrims desiring the very same thing.
