Apple has assured its loyal fan base that there will be no more waiting for their movie fix on iTunes. The company has announced that from now on, movies will be released to the public for download on iTunes the same day they are released on DVD.

In spite of their stability and ease of use, Macs have long been shunned by IT departments everywhere. It is getting harder and harder for IT departments to come up with reasons not to include Macs in their short lists of hardware, however. With factors from a greater number of users embracing the Apple interface to greater availability of cross platform options, IT is running out of excuses.

Apple’s laptop line has been due for a design change for quite some time; not counting the MacBook Air which is an entirely new product.  The MacBook and MacBook Pro are due for moderate, if not groundbreaking changes.

If you are not yet familiar with IBM’s Lenovo’s PC laptop cousin to the MacBook Air, allow me to fill you in.  Lenovo has produced what it calls the “no comprimise” thin and light laptop complete with all the ports and optical drives you will find on larger PC laptops.  Lenovo has seen fit to flame Apple with its ThinkPad X300 laptop.

The popularity of the MacBook Air has surprised me; that doesn’t mean I’ve changed my mind about it but Apple users feel differently.  The MacBook Air is so popular that it has pushed Apple’s share of the computer market to 14% with 20% of its laptop sales accounted for by the MacBook Air.

You may remember a couple days back of a gentlemen who wrote about being detained up by TSA officers at the airport because of the unusual configuration of the MacBook Air.  This information has reached higher-up TSA officials and they are now working to ensure that more of their employees are familiar with the MacBook Air’s configuration.

Have you been hiding in your well-decorated office or den, clutching your MacBook or iMac close, afraid to emerge and face the vindictive world who wants nothing good for you or your Mac?  Do you spend your time flitting through the shadows as you whisper softly into your iPhone?  Those days are over — MacWorld has taken a bold stance in saying there is absolutely nothing wrong with you or your Mac, and if that means you’re a snob, so be it!

Don’t travel with new technology if you want to make it through airport security in a timely fashion.  One owner of a MacBook Air was stopped because the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents couldn’t identify the traditional parts of a laptop on it.
