Can you imagine letting a 25th anniversary slide by unnoticed? I almost did that yesterday, but something tickled a neuron before the clock struck twelve. This event I remembered was a milestone, marking the beginning of what has become a remarkable lifestyle change for our whole family.To put things in perspective, travel back in time with me to the evening of October 31, 1982. Immediately after supper, my husband took our older son out trick-or-treating. They only went one place, and acquiring the treat required a credit card imprint before they returned home with the loot: a single apple. This wasn’t just any old apple, it was an Apple ][+ computer, with dual external floppy disk drives, and an extra 24 K of memory. That’s right. That machine ran with a whopping 48 kilobytes of memory!The main purpose of the purchase was to allow our son to scratch his itch to learn programming languages — he’d already mastered machine language so he could create new games for his Atari. He

Las restrictivas licencias del nuevo sistema operativo a la hora de utilizarlo en una máquina virtual se han relajado, y ahora Apple permite dicho escenario si estamos usando la versión Server de Leopard.Un cambio en la licencia de uso de Mac OS X 10.5 Server ha sido descubierto por un ingeniero de sistemas de la Universidad de Wisconsin-Madison, que ha detectado cómo un párrafo ha sido editado para hablar explícitamente de esta posibilidad.Hasta la fecha Apple establecía en esa licencia que su sistema operativo no podía ser usado en una máquina virtual, pero ahora la modificación sí que hace posible tal oferta, de modo que si dispones de una versión de Mac OS X 10.5 Server, podrás usarla a través de una máquina virtual. Un cambio muy acertado en un mercado que crece sin parar.Este cambio no se ha hecho en la licencia de uso de la versión de sobremesa de Leopard.Por Javier PastorInformación extraída de: The Inquirer ES

Steve Wozniak, que en su momento fundó Apple junto a Steve Jobs, interviene nuevamente para criticar a Apple.En esta oportunidad, Wozniak se refiere en duros términos a la filosofía de Apple respecto del producto iPhone, y el hecho que el teléfono haya sido lanzado como una aplicación cerrada y no como una plataforma abierta en que los usuarios puedan instalar aplicaciones a su antojo.Wosniak también critica el lanzamiento de Leopard. A su juicio, ya no son los sistemas operativos que venden computadoras, y las actualizaciones de tales sistemas es un proceso que toma mucho tiempo. Por lo tanto, el objetivo debería ser crear un interfaz que funcione para usuarios que nunca antes se han acercado a una computadora.Ya no llama la atención que Wozniak se refiera de los críticos a criticar a la compañía a que en su momento contribuyó a fundar. A menudo, Wozniak tiene opiniones interesantes considerando su trayectoria en la compañía, independiente que se esté en acuerdo o en de

This is my guess anyway. Why?Microsoft sold about 60 million copies of Vista this year, which is more than the entire installed base of Apple. There will be more than 1 billion Windows users by the end of Microsoft's fiscal year, this includes the 40 million copies sold in the first 100 days of Vistas release.Steve Ballmer has stated that this means there will be more copies of WIndows running worldwide, than there are automobiles. Source.The thing I love about PC's are the games. The thing I love about my iMac is that I can play those games using a Cider port, or in Bootcamp, at full speed. Thing is, most people use PC's because they have become a mainstay in the business world. There are a few key applications that just don't make it to the Mac platform. Solidworks, AutoCAD as well as several other highly sophisticated 3D programs. Many accounting, tax, and property management programs are also unsupported on the Mac.My sister-in-law loves the Mac for internet browsing, Mail and

If you had been an Apple employee for more than a year prior to the launch of the iPhone, you get a free iPhone. Then came that nice $100 rebate for early adopters, which you may have found out you could get away with redeeming. Seems like a great deal, a free iPhone and $100 worth of credit, just for showing up to work... Well, if you took advantage of that rebate, you won’t have to worry about showing up for work anymore.Apple, it seems, called these people CROOKS and has removed them from the payroll...

Still another all-in-one equipment. Sony Vaio LT PC/TV has like the Apple iMac the entire computer in the monitor. The display measures 22 inches, 2 inches more than iMäc. In the Sony computer works an Intel core 2 duo and 2 GB Memorycard. Also WLAN 802.11n-Draft, a hybrid TV Tuner and a 1,3-Megapixel-Webcam are integrated. The television and computer functions of the computer should be independently usable. The standard model costs 1900 Dollar. Who wants to have the top model VGC-LT19U with Blu ray burner and Windows Vista Ultimate, must pay 1000 Dollar more.

Apple Inc. no longer accepts cash for iPhone purchases and now limits sales of the cell phone to two per person in a move to stop people from reselling them.The new policy started Thursday, according to Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris. Before then, there was no cash restriction and the purchase limit was five per person."Customer response to the iPhone has been off the charts, and limiting iPhone sales to two per customer helps us ensure that there are enough iPhones for people who are shopping for themselves or buying a gift," Kerris said. "We're requiring a credit or debit card for payment to discourage unauthorized resellers."More than 1.4 million units of the hybrid cell phone-iPod have been sold since it debuted on June 29, according to Apple. It is expected to be a hot gift for the holidays.Apple thinks some people already have purchased multiple iPhones to resell, including those looking to modify or 'unlock' the phones so they work on networks other than AT&T, Apple's

Apple lanza 'Leopard', la nueva versión de su sistema operativo Mac OS, aunque con varios meses de retraso respecto a los planes iniciales de la compañía, y medio año después del lanzamiento de Vista, el rival de Microsoft contra el que sale a competir.Este sistema operativo viene a modernizar 'Tiger', la penúltima versión de Mac OS que fue lanzada hace dos años y que supuso toda una revolución, por ejemplo, en cuanto al concepto de búsqueda de archivos, gracias a 'Spotlight'.En esta ocasión, 'Leopard' ofrece cerca de 300 funciones nuevas, como 'Time Machine', que permite ir salvando de manera automática las distintas versiones de un documento mientras se modifica, de manera que se pueden recuperar a lo largo de su historial.También destacan sus nuevas interfaces para visualizar rápidamente los documentos para clasificarlos ('Quicklook'), las mejoras de la organización de iconos en el escritorio ('Spaces'), el enriquecimiento de las funciones de videochat (

Haciendo una compra dentro de la legalidad y pasando de mercados alternativos, hasta el momento un cliente podía comprar hasta 5 iPhones a la vez. Ahora, el listón ha bajado a 2 iPhones por persona.Por lo visto los clientes que compraban el aparato en cantidades por encima de lo normal es tan grande, probablemente para someterlos a una liberación y venderlos por un ojo de la cara, que Apple ha tomado esta medida en vista del perjuicio que se ocasionaba a AT&T y bajo la evidéncia de que estas prácticas pueden expandirse a otros países a medida que se lance el iPhone en distintos mercados.No me sorprendería que la gente que compra iPhones en cantidades industriales hubiera puesto en peligro el lanzamiento casi inminente en el Reino Unido, Alemania y Francia, y sobre todo en vistas a la campaña navideña. Por lo visto a Apple le interesa más quedar bien con sus socios que acelerar la producción de más aparatos para su beneficio.Por ZemtexInformación extraída de: SomosMAC

I am going to need a new computer in the next few months, and I am seriously considering making the switch from Windows to Mac. After reading several reviews in which Apple's Tiger OS compared favorably to Vista, I started researching Mac hardware. Unfortunately, this was where I ran into problems. As much as I want to make the switch to Mac, Apple has some serious hardware problems to fix before I'd be comfortable buying an iMac.My Dell Dimension 4500 is showing its age, especially when I use Photoshop. I've maxed the RAM, added a faster hard drive and DVD-RW drive, but I've reached the point where additional upgrades are either not possible (RAM) or impractical. A new computer is in my future, hopefully during the next few months.My computing needs appear to be rather different from many of the consumers targeted by PC makers. I do all the usual office and internet applications, have a massive .mp3 collection, but have no interest in gaming. Most of my computing demands come from

Por lo visto Apple ya tiene lista la producción en masa y posterior lanzamiento de los nuevos Mac Pro, con el nuevo procesador Penryn, y está a la espera de que Intel les diga adelante, chicos.Los nuevos ordenadores con tecnología de 45 nanómetros tendrían como máximo dos quads Hapertown con 1600 MHz de bus y 12 MB de cache L2, pudiendo alcanzar unas velocidades de hasta 3,2 GHz. Eso se traduce en una velocidad escalofriante, teniendo en cuenta que los actuales Mac Pro ya son de por si unas auténticas bestias. De ahí que estos ordenadores estén orientados a profesionales, y con un poder adquisitivo no precisamente pequeño.Por un lado, hay quien apunta que Intel quiere lanzar los nuevos chips el 12 de noviembre, pero que Apple está deseosa de anunciar sus nuevas máquinas antes de esa fecha. Y por otro, hay quien es del parecer de pensar que los nuevos Mac Pro no verán la luz hasta la próxima Mac World Expo de San Francisco, que se celebrará en enero.Por ZemtexInformación
