  • New iPods: shuffle, nano, touch

    These are screen cap from Apple’s livestream. Pretty good eh? This is Steve showing off the new iPod line: it’s completely revamped, leaving out the iPod classic. The revamped design for the shuffle is really a marriage of the button-style layout with the voice commands. And they made it smaller. The new nano is essentially…

  • The New Monopoly

    If you’re a fanboy like me, you’re probably still awake waiting for the live stream. Have you read the fine print at the bottom of the announcement? You need to be running on Safari or using iOS to view the stream. WTF! Sure, they’re doing a stress test of their new datacenters but they just…

  • MacBook Pro: How to fix audio problems running Windows 7 via BootCamp

    I had recently bought the latest 13 inch MacBook Pro and installed both Snow Leopard and WIndows 7 Ultimate via BootCamp. Everything went well save for an annoying problem with the audio not being able to work. Puzzling. After several unsuccessful tries I found out that this was a problem with BootCamp 3.0, and not…

    Text from an editorial note I made after sifting through our Afterburner section to upload online: I remembered Eggy today after looking through the archives of our Afterburner section for the magazine.

  • How to reset the HTC Desire

    If you’re planning to buy an HTC Desire, one of the things you should learn how to do is perform a system reset. Usually, Android phones have the system rest or factory restore settings located under Settings. It’s a bit different with the HTC Desire, a follow up to the Google Nexus One. THe Nexus…

  • As less as it gets

    A friend was asking buying advice for a netbook. I had recommended several brands, although she opened the conversation with the latest Lenovo IdeaPad being top of mind. This was a portable that I featured a couple of days ago. I shot her more options — that same Lenovo without the swivel / touch screen,…

  • Starcraft II can teach us a bit about community, co-creation, and platforms

    Back from IMMAP. It was great to see everyone. And I mean everyone — everywhere my heard turned, there was always a familiar face. After sitting in some of the talks and ‘browsing around’ I figured I’d write a little commentary, more like an addendum to my views on Internet marketing. in a way, this…
