    Steve Jobs sick leave

    I'm just shocked that the internal email reached outside so quickly. Got the email and about 2 minutes later it was plastered all over the internet. Exactly how many spies are there @ Apple? I have zero doubt that Steve will recover from this and be back in action this year. He's got the...

    Fire At Apple

    No injuries, just a lot of displaced employees.

    Yeah, that was not the R&D building. A/C unit malfunctioned.

    Contacts

    When I have a person that has more than one cell (personal is usually mobile and their work cell is Work Cell). I made a Custom label in Address Book for Work Cell and iPhone recognizes it just fine. My wife has both a personal and work cell so I added both of hers to my favorite and it shows...

    My Review: iPhone Rocks

    Here's a quick shot from my couch. I would get up and get an outside shot, but as you can see from the photo, the couch monster would not be very happy with me as she is resting up against me.

    My Review: iPhone Rocks

    Sorry, no memory expansion. The top slot is the Sim slot. Unit is extremely sturdy. It's very solid indeed. From some reports out there the stress tests have come out very well. Touchscreen is solid glass. It's not like the HTC or palm pilots of old where they had a plastic film over it that...

    My Review: iPhone Rocks

    I did enjoy walking up to my local mall @ 7:00pm to find they had plenty of stock. Line was only 10 deep! I'm sure happy Apple employees are not restricted from buying iPhones early as At&t employees are (in regards to their using it as their company phone). Typing with the iPhone keyboard...

    Play GTA: Vice City on Mac

    Also to remove Boot Camp completely is quite easy. Goto your /Applications/Utilities folder where you initially used Boot Camp Assistant and launch it again. You should have the option there to remove Boot Camp's partition and restore your drive back to a single partition.

    Direct access to F-key rather FN+F'key on Powerbook

    Yes, the option resides within the System Preferences under Keyboard & Mouse. I forget which tab under that option, but it's there and you can reverse how the function works just as you described above. No 3rd party tools required.

    Leopard released. Wow.

    I'll substitute the rabbits with a weekly dose of telemarketers. I just take their calls now and ask for a in-home 'demostration'. No reason to harm the playful fuzzy bunnies; they did nothing wrong.

    corrupted ipod... please help!!!

    If you are under warranty, you can take it back to Apple for repairs, or even if you are not under warranty that is an option. If the usual restore does not fix the issue, it's very likely you have bad sectors on the drive for which it cannot repair. You might be able to locate some hidden...

    iMac G3 - OS X

    You need to get your hands on a copy of OS X. I'm not saying your current issue cannot be resolved without re-installing the OS, I'm just saying I wouldn't trust a second-hand computer install period. The computer will run more reliably with a clean install instead of plugging up the holes in...

    corrupted ipod... please help!!!

    If I recall correctly, just plug it into iTunes and under the iPod tab, select restore to put the iPod back to it's factory default settings. This used to be it's own program when you performed updates to the iPod, but now it's included into iTunes. Typical reasons for this errors usually...

    Apple/Microsoft....My Prediction

    Median home prices in california are still around 575,000 - 615,000. Less than 30% of Californians can afford to own a home. I don't have sources on this, it's from memory over the past couple of months from news reports, but they are close to those numbers. It's just mind boggling, that to be...
