June 4, 2008

Apple to drop support for PowerPC with Mac OSX 10.6 Who still has a PowerPC Mac?  Not me and probably not you.  So, then it just makes sense for Apple to drop support for PowerPC Macs completely in the next version of Mac OSX.  It’s time to get rid of that PowerPC Mac, if you still have one.

April 30, 2008

AT&T to offer 3G iPhone for $200 with 2-year plan Some early reports are floating around that when the 3G iPhone launches later this year that AT&T will sell it for just $200 if you get a 2-year plan with it but only in an AT&T store.  Neither AT&T or Apple are willing to comment on the matter but there are additional conflicting reports from other sources that don’t make sense with this plan at all.
