Wow, this is really well done. “iMan” by Luke Escombe
Every once in awhile some music artist looking for attention puts out an iPhone-related music video, and, let’s be honest, they usually suck. But check out this rare gem by Luke Escombe entitled “iMan”. Not only is the video funny and very well-made, and not only is the chick hot and soapy, but the song is actually quite good. Anyone who has ever suspected their... Read More
Interview with Subatomic’s Chris Canfield about the upcoming Fieldrunners 2!
Fieldrunners 2 Title Screen Fans of tower defense games need no introduction to the Fieldrunners franchise – the adorably violent and hugely popular iOS title which debuted on the App store in 2008, and was later ported to various, lesser platforms.

Review: HiveDock – Not nearly as stupid as you’d think
Yes, truly glowing words of praise. However, I think appropriate as almost everyone who first views the HiveDock experiences the same flurry of thoughts, starting with “WTF?”, then moving on to “That seems stupid” and finally, “I wonder if it works?”. Long story short, it kinda does. The idea behind the HiveDock is so simple it seems obvious.... Read More

Whoops! Remember to re-enable TRIM support on your Mac’s 3rd party SSD drive every once in awhile
You may remember my AWESOME article about replacing my MacBook Pro’s optical drive with an SSD drive a while back. You may also remember that for some reason, Apple seems to want only THEIR OEM SSD drives to perform flawlessly out of the box, and if you want to enable TRIM support on your 3rd party SSD drive (TRIM is the technology that helps keep your SSD healthy and keeps...

Epic Rap Battles of History puts up Gates vs Jobs
No real explanation needed here, other than Epic Rap Battles of History likes to pit two historical figures up against each other and let users vote on who wins the rap battle. While I find this amusing and well-produced, given that Steve is dead and Gates hasn’t run Microsoft for awhile, this battle feels a little out of place, as this “rivalry” was really more...

The Vultures are Circling…
Faithful Macenstein reader Walter sends us this e-mail he got from proMax, looking to cash in on the lackluster Mac Pro update earlier this week. Honestly, I wish I could say proMax was way off base here, but I have to admit, their machines, spec-wise, are everything the new Mac Pros SHOULD have been, and since they totally ripped off the Mac Pro’s aesthetics (achieving similar...

Apple’s 2012 WWDC: The Good, the Bad, and the Meh
As with all big Apple events, I once again find people turning to me for my opinion on the announcements from Apple’s 2012 World Wide Developer’s Conference. Honestly I can’t blame them, as my opinion is often the only correct one when it comes to such things. I seem to have the uncanny ability to cut through the hype with laser beam-like precision, and somehow... Read More
