What’s the big deal about Woz?

This is going to be a bit controversial, but seriously speaking, I think that people, especially old Mac fans, think too highly of Steve Wozniak. Let’s look at the history.

Seagate HDDs the cause of your dead MacBooks/MacBook Pros

As this article reports, and I have been saying the same thing for the past 2 years, the Seagate laptop HDDs that are used in the first generation MacBooks and several other earlier Apple laptops/desktops are problem-ridden and generally die despite careful use.

What’s fucking wrong with Apple?

When news of the 1.1.2 update arrived via T3, images of more bricked iPhones come to mind.

We are excited about creating a vibrant third party developer community around the iPhone and enabling hundreds of new applications for our users. With our revolutionary multi-touch interface, powerful […]

First ever iPod promo video

Wow! Behold the first ever iPod promo video. This is sooooo different from how the iPod ads are like today.

NBC Idiots

Wil Shipley, Chief Monster of Delicious Monster and Omni Group fame, posts his thoughts (or rather, critcism) about the whole NBC saga. He reckons NBC people are idiots. You know what? He’s absolutely right.

iPhone Updates?

One might be wondering why I have not been posting about the iPhone or the iPod Touch. Well, here’s the update. I’m officially not interested in the iPod Touch anymore. Am now officially hoping for the dev team to continue with their breaking in of the iPhone’s new firmware, and am actually hanging out in […]
