…and boy do I have a lot on my mind before the keynote. So bear with me. First, let’s talk data plans…AT&T… For the iPhone: They’ve changed the plans to $15 for 200 meg and $25 for 2 gig. That’s GREAT! I love it! I hardly use more than 200 meg per month, so I [...]

So, I updated to version 3.0 3.0.1 (Oh, hey, yeah…could you update one more time, please?) of the AppleTV software for their self-described hobby project/media center device. I do love the end to end, just barely skirting this side of an antitrust lawsuit, seamless integration that the Apple experience provides the end user. It just [...]

It was 25 years ago today that the original Macintosh 128 was released to the public. What a wild ride it’s been since then. And here’s what started it all…

Contrary to what some may say or think, I do tend to keep somewhat busy. The past couple weeks have been no exception. Especially since I am preparing for my return to Nerd Prom 2008 this summer. I’ve tried a few attempts at creating a new entry, but none of them were really any good, [...]

It’s a day late, all thanks to Fox’s new 168 hours per week of American Idol programming, which is not soon enough for them thanks to the WGA strike. However…the Macworld keynote recap The good… Nice update for the iPhone and AppleTV. I sit patiently by my AppleTV every night waiting for it to tell [...]
