How To: Play classic DOS games on your current Mac (Warning: You will likely be eaten by a Grue)

Fresh from the “I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who’ll find this information useful” department, I’ve decided to post a brief “How-To” on how to play classic DOS games you might have purchased back in your PC days on your current Mac OS X system. Why would you want to do this? Well, in my case, it all started when I was helping my... Read More

crowdsourced iPhone data Frankfurt

crowdsourced iPhone data from Frankfurt For those of you are NOT flipping out about the iPhone tracking data being “crowd-sourced” by Apple, there’s a new project called “CrowdFlow” being developed by Michael Kreil, Lorenz Matzat, and Dr. Huxorn that allows you to submit your iPhone location log file in order to create a visualization of how various... Read More

World’s smallest Apple store looks like it would rank #1 in customer service

small apple store in China

Ironically, this is the 3rd largest store in China A reddit user posted a picture of an “Apple store” in China which brings new meaning to the term “One to One”, as I doubt more than one customer plus the employee could fit in there. How awesome would it be if that store was sitting on 500 iPad 2’s right now? (And actually, I suppose given that it’s... Read More

Steve Jobs, frozen in carbonite iPhone case feels like something I should want, but don’t

Society6 is selling a “Steve Jobs in Carbonite” iPhone case for $35 that in theory is such a perfect geeky combination that I SHOULD want to own it. But something about it just feels so very creepy… I’m not sure I would want to touch it, let alone hold it really close to my cheek. Still, the idea IS oddly awesome. If the iPhone case isn’t your thing,... Read More

The Awesome iPad Art of Chris Seddon

Tina Fey iPad Art by Chris Seddon

Tina Fey or Sarah Palin? Either way, it's dead-on. Illustrator Chris Seddon has some pretty impressive work, but I’m always a little extra impressed when someone can crank out that work on an iPad. I spent about 2 days toying with the various big name drawing apps on the iPad before giving up and sticking with paper, but some artists like Seddon apparently stuck with... Read More

Steve Jobs says Apple doesn’t track anyone: But everyone else DOES

Apple iphone 4 tracking

A MacRumors reader (along , I assume, with about 10,000 other people and press) sent an e-mail to Steve Jobs about the whole “OMG the iPhone is letting the terrorists know my every move” debacle, and actually hit the lottery and got a reply. And what a reply it is! Q: Steve, Could you please explain the necessity of the passive location-tracking tool embedded in my... Read More

This could be the greatest photo ever taken

Every once in a while a piece of Apple history emerges that is so utterly amazing that I can’t imagine how I somehow never knew about it. Case in point, this picture of a genuinely in-shape Steve Wozniak and a totally wasted(-looking) David Lee Roth. The story goes that Steve Wozniak sponsored two Multi-Day rock concerts back in ’82 and ’83 called the US Festivals.... Read More

Celebrity Mac Chick sighting: Audrina Patridge

Audrina Patridge

I’ll assume you are all watching Audrina Patridge‘s new VH1 reality show as intently as I am (meaning fast-forwarding with the sound off) but still, somehow I managed to spot this iPhone 4. Looks like Audrina’s on our team. I’m still debating whether or not we should be proud at this point, but I’ll admit there IS something compelling about the show... Read More
