Apple announced the iPod touch today, and it looks hot. Kind of like something we’ve seen before… Well, it seems like the heart and soul of the iPhone, sans phone. It boasts a touch screen that functions in the same way as the iPhone, and a beautiful (well, it looks that way on our computer […]
iPod nanos have gotten a far more interesting revision: they now have “a little video for everyone,” per their new tagline. The new nanos are a shorter and stockier version of their predecessors. They play video, just as the full-sized iPods do (more on those here shortly…). The 2GB size has been dropped for the […]
iPod shuffles have softened-up a bit, color-wise. The new shuffles will be available in silver, turquoise, light green, a product (red) version, and of course, Don’s favorite: purple. The capacity has stayed the same, with the 1GB size at $79.99. They’re still aluminum and the same super small size (nice alliteration!) we love. All existing […]
A First Look at iWeb 2.0 I loaded up iLife ‘08 this week and immediately decided to check out the new features of iWeb to do some much needed updating to my personal web site. The first thing that I did was to take advantage of personal domain names which allows you to use a […]
Today I got my new iMac. The last time I got an iMac was one of the first iMac G5s. I would have to say that besides the change to the Intel chip, this is one of that largest updates to the iMac line. It now includes the Intel Extreme chip, glossy displays, 802.11n wireless […]

For example, it currently lacks themes, multi-audio support, dedicated timeline view, and plug-in support. Also, the available transitions and effects are very limited. It appears that Apple is currently […]

I’ve seen plenty of flickering screens, and thought the problem would just be the inverter. We sent […]
Written by Davidb@smalldog.com, posted by Ed I recently traveled up to Burlington to visit my fellow Small Doggers before resuming my regular schedule later on in the summer. I also recently purchased a car so that I could make this trip. Sadly, the $100 I dropped on this vehicle did not include a working radio. […]
Things that belong together: chocolate + peanut butter, pretzels + beer, french fries + ketchup. Windows + Mac? They can go together, but don’t necessarily belong together. Personally, I never use Windows (though I know a lot of modern technologically-driven systems such as POS systems, gas pumps, airline reservation software, etc. run Windows software behind […]
A few weeks ago, I wrote about the many Mac-compatible applications, programs, and services offered by Google (one of my favorite companies.) Shortly I after I wrote at article, Google launched a new service – iGoogle. iGoogle is what Google formerly referred to as the “Personalized Homepage.” According to the official Google Blog, iGoogle is […]
