Jealousy – My Sweet Mac Setup

11 Apr, 2006

This is what it looks like when I work from home. My Intel iMac on the left and my work iMac G5 on the right. It’s one sweet setup if you ask me. Not pictured is the wife’s Powerbook 667 and my iPod (which she Podnaped for the day).

Apple Supports Windows XP on Macs

5 Apr, 2006

It’s true. Apple is saying it’s OK to boot into XP on Intel based Macs. They are even giving away software to make it easier to do! Check out Boot Camp and see how Apple is supporting Windows on Macs. Next thing you know, they’ll be building the technology to run windows applications in MacOSX. […]

AquaBook PowerBook Works!

4 Apr, 2006

It’s freaking amazing! The Powerbook survived getting soaked with no issues. I got a call yesterday asking when I was coming home. It seems that there was a large glass of water to close to the laptop. The cat jumped up and spilled it on the keyboard and though the computer. When I got home […]

Get AppZapper Free!

3 Apr, 2006

A truly great offer! Ok so it’s PR, link bait, scheme or whatever you wanna call it but MacZOT asked for 259 bloggers to mention AppZapper in their blog, with a link to MacZOT.com, and then they’d discount the price of the application by 5 cents. If they got 259 posts, the application will be […]

Our Powerbook is in a Coma

21 Mar, 2006

It happened Sunday night around 7:45pm. My My wife’s Powerbook 667 slipped into a coma. It will start up a little, but stops at a blue screen. Never loading the desktop. Even disk utility can’t help. I was able to hook it up to life support though. Via target disk mode, my iMac was able […]

Playing with Apple’s Photo Booth

17 Mar, 2006

One of my new applications is Photo Booth from Apple. It’s a simple application that ties into my iSight web camera and takes still pictures. You can also select filters and take pictures that look interesting. 🙂 Below is some of my fun with Photo Booth this morning. Granted, I think I need better lighting. […]

My First Dashboard Widget

14 Mar, 2006

I’ve created my first Dashboard Widget 🙂 Thanks to a nice tutorial from Josh Nimoy I was able to walk though the steps and see how easy it is to create a simple, yet pointless, Dashboard Widget. You never know, this could be the first steps towards something amazing! If you want, and I don’t […]

Target Disk Mode Rocks

10 Mar, 2006

You gotta love target disk mode. It’s a wonderful feature from Apple that lets you boot a machine as a firewire hard drive on another. This then allows you to quickly copy off files and folders. This morning I hooked up my PowerBook to my new iMac via a firewire cable, held down the T […]

Dreamweaver Replacement on the Mac?

6 Mar, 2006

I’m looking for a replacement for Dreamweaver on my new iMac. I like Dreamweaver but it seems to complex (and expensive) for what I need. What I’d like in a new app is code completion and code preview abilities. Granted, I know that’s not always available. Built in FTP would be good too but not […]
