    Any ogg to mp3 converters?

    iTunes can use whatever codecs Quicktime has installed, so if you find yourself an ogg codec you should be able to convert the files to mp3, aac or whatever; I don't use ogg so I'm not sure where to get a codec but I'd imagine there will be one around on versiontracker or the like.

    New PowerBooks/iBooks Next Week?

    mi5moav, is this just conjecture or do you have any information to back this up? I know opinions on a timescale for PB G5s vary a lot but you seem to be pulling numbers out of the air.

    This cant be true..can it?

    There were far far more April Fool stories on Slashdot, it all got a bit silly. I quite liked the register's one though. And anyway, come on dude: Intel's server processor chief Mike Fister was a bit more modest. "I am the lizard king," he said.

    iTMS Europe

    Here we go again... mycokemusic is up because it's using a service that has been up and running for quite a while now, OD2. All they had to do was stick a new front end on it. If Apple had gone with opening iTMS UK seperately then I'm sure it would be open by now, given when they started...

    Software in New York.

    Remember that you'll have to pay for VAT and possibly other charges at customs though.

    iMac G5 (mod)

    Ah I'd thought it was the other way around, a G5 shoehorned into an iMac, that would have been even impressive. Or just pointless, I'm not sure which.

    Can I purchase the internally Bluetooth module separately...?

    Have a look on eBay. You can get USB Bluetooth dongles for under $20.

    iPhoto Printing available in Europe

    1) There's already been a "whine about how Apple are screwing me with iLife" thread. 2) Is there any confirmation of printing for the UK from Apple yet? There doesn't appear to be anything on Apple UK site. Maybe people should wait until it's official before complaining, at least then you'll...

    10.3.3 exceeds expectations...

    I agree with Ripcord on quite a few points. I've used Panther on two networks with mixed platforms and I've even found connecting to other OSX systems shaky, let alone Windows (and it's not just my machine, or one Windows machine). Sorry if I'm repeating too much but this is a very big issue...

    Apple to do Starbucks Music Site?

    Of course I'd like to see Apple increase their market share but it would be nice if they weren't involved with the more evil multinationals. Although I know that's asking a bit much given that they're already bound to Microsoft and IBM in various ways.

    Apple to do Starbucks Music Site?

    Oh God I hope not. What's next, Apple whoring themselves to McDonalds, or maybe just cutting out the middle man and going straight to satan? Ok, it's via HP but I still don't like it.

    10.3.3 exceeds expectations...

    Is there any difference in network browsing in 10.3.3? That's the one thing in Panther that's been annoying me, accessing windows machines still requires the connect to server dialog in practice.

    Your Mac accidents

    I've dropped my iPod quite a few times and it's still fine. My G4's also stood up to a lot of moving around. No drops or anything but I did forget it was in the back of my car when I went over some large speed bumps at about 30 mph. The only accidents I've had involved keyboards. Spilt some...

    Adobe PageMaker and similar software

    Has Adobe finally discontinued it? As far as I knew it was still around but I hadn't looked for a while. Anyway, yes, InDesign is much better to work with than PageMaker. There's also Quark XPress but it's more expensive and still not as good as InDesign IMHO. The only problem with InDesign...

    new ibooks and imacs in (ipod)mini colours???

    I like quite like the idea! After seeing ColorWare's PowerBooks and iPods I'd like to see apple do it. After all, it's been a while since the old multicoloured iBooks and iMacs, I'd like to see the colours come back! Wouldn't mind a powder blue 12" PowerBook G5. Maybe by the time one is...

    Forbes slams iPod earphones

    The iPod earbud headphones have come under fire for producing "music that's damp and unclear". http://uk.news.yahoo.com/040227/101/en4x2.html Seems a bit strange. I always rated the iPod headphones pretty highly, they're made by Sennheisser after all and IIRC have a suprisingly good range...
