The iBook has received a CPU speed bum, more RAM (512MB), Wireless connectivity (WiFi & Bluetooth), better graphics chip and other nifty features tonight. The Mac mini was also enhanced with more RAM (512MB) and other customisable options too. Time for an upgrade? Only in our dreams..... :-P

Words of Wisdom

Just read something interesting and would like to share it:

An ancient Indonesian fable tells of a turtle that could fly. He would hold on to a stick with his mouth as it was carried by geese. When the turtle heard the onlookers on the ground saying, "Aren't those geese brilliant!" his pride was so hurt that he shouted, "It was my idea!" Of course he lost his grip. His pride became his downfall.

It worked!!! Finally!!!

After months of frustration, my handphone (Nokia 9300) can finally sync with my Mac. All Thanks to Ian for sharing a tip posted on MacOSXhints. A little fiddling here and there was all that was required to make it work, which makes me wonder why the engineers in Apple did not do it in the first place? Hmm.... :-P

Soul of the Mac is the OS

I finally had the time to watch the WWDC keynote address by Steve Jobs and I'll have to say it was very interesting. Ever since Steve took over as Apple's CEO, he made many decisions that caused much uneasiness among the Mac-faithful. But, all these have come to pass and most of the time we (the users) had benefitted from it. The next transition as Steve calls it, is the switch from PowerPC to Intel processors. Where will this decision lead us to? It will be a very interesting time for us! And I'm keeping my fingers crossed. ~ Fred
