I Hate Apple
Posted on
Ha ha, not really. I had you fooled for a second, didn’t I. I have gone through the worst experience with my 12-inch PowerBook G4. The hard drive died 369 days after I bought it. Apple’s policy is that you have to buy the extended warrany (AppleCare) within your first year of owning the machine. That extra 4 days has caused me the worst headache ever. I was very frustrated at Apple, but It’s all good now. They fixed my PowerBook for free (a $349 value).
I think I’m going to buy a LaCie 300gb Extreme Triple Interface. Though about the LaCie Bigger Disk Extreme 2TB, but I figured that was a little excessive and pricey at $1,655. I’m just hlad they are fixing my computer for free.

Apple Boot Camp Public Beta1
Posted on
Apple has just released Boot Camp. It lets you dual boot easily Mac OS X and Windows XP (Pro or Home with SP2). This is just a beta version of the software. It will be included in the new OS 10.5 Leopard. All you need is an Intel Mac and a Windows XP CD.
I am really looking forward to this. If Apple added a right click to the MacBook Pro, everyone would want to buy one. Personally, as soon as Adobe releases Photoshop and Studio 8 (perviously by Macromedia), I will be buying a 20" iMac. I think I'll keep my little 12" PowerBook G4 around. It's perfect for note taking and checking my mail on the road.

iPod Scare
Posted on
I got out of my car this morning with the intent of listening to my iPod Nano (4GB), and the LCD screen just flashed the dead battery icon. I had just charged it full since it was dead last time I went to use it. I figured it was just because I had left it plugged into my iTrip Nano. So I was about to go buy a new iPod Nano (1GB this time... little short on cash right now) when I realized that my alarm on my iPod was waking it up and playing it until it died.
The moral of the story: If your iPod dies a few times in one week, check the alarm clock.
