Catching up with MCotM Lauren Reeves, 1 year later

We recently ran into our August 2007 Mac Chick of the Month Lauren Reeves and noticed she was sporting a brand new 3G iPhone – so we decided to use our meeting as a chance to catch up with Lauren, get her feelings on the new iPhone, and of course, to use it as an excuse to run some more pictures of one of our favorite MCotM’s. Macenstein: Hey Lauren. So, what... Read More

Windows BSoD takes the Gold at the Beijing Olympics

Faithful Macenstein reader Adam Davie sent us these shots he found on the River Cool forums showing that once again, Windows’ Blue Screen of Death has crashed another event, this time the Opening Ceremony of Beijing 2008 Olympics Games. Above: hmm… maybe no one will notice… Perhaps this is simply Microsoft’s idea of “product placement”, as... Read More

Celebrity Mac Chick sighting: Amanda Bynes

You may know Amanda Bynes as the star of She’s All That or the 2007 movie adaptation of Hairspray (and if you DO, then you have my condolences). But to me she’ll always be the teen star of Nickelodeon’s The Amanda Show, which is probably why I feel a bit creepy ogling her now (although she’s apparently 22, I checked). Actually, for the record, I am ogling... Read More

Birds do it, Bees do it, even Educated T-800’s do it

I haven’t heard much about Terminator 4, but this shot give a whole new meaning to “Rise of the Machines“. Nice to see that the iPod is still around, post-Apocalypse, and also that it is not opposed to a threesome. I wonder what they were listening to… I’m guessing either Barry White or Mr. Roboto. Thanks to faithful Macenstein reader Rowlings for... Read More

Celebrity Mac Chick sighting Revisited: Blake Lively

You may remember we spotted Gossip Girl’s Blake Lively with her iPhone (and school girl outfit) earlier this year. Well, it looks like Blake is a bit of a gadget freak, and has upgraded her iPhone to the new 3G model. I don’t know what it is about this picture, but I can’t help staring at those two great big, beautiful, pointy cones. (The orange ones on the... Read More

Mysterious creature sighted at South Carolina Apple store opening

Faithful Macenstein reader Jordan sent us some pretty cool shots he took at the Charleston South Carolina Apple store grand opening this weekend. Among the usual shots of the lined up mob and the pristine, soon-to-be-fouled store, is this rather interesting shot of a mysterious creature we would swear was the NJ Devil, if it weren’t taken in SC. According to Jordan,... Read More

Photos from the Apple Store Liverpool opening

“‘ello Gov’nor! What’s all this then? Why, it’s the Liverpool Apple Store grand opening, it is!” (Yes, that’s how all Americans think all British people talk. At least those of us raised watching Danger Mouse and Banana Man cartoons on Nickeloedeon…) Faithful UK Macenstein reader Tim Cox sent us these shots his nephew Elliot Norton... Read More

Macenstein’s “Mac Chick of the Month” (July 2008): Giannina

Welcome to Macenstein‘s “Mac Chick of the Month”. Each month we feature a different die-hard, Mac-loving girl who is (almost) as well designed as the Apple products they love. This month we present you with the lovely Giannina, the spunky host of a “How To” internet video site and die hard Mac Chick, all the way from Paraguay! Photos by abdalao Read... Read More

Where’s Woz-do?

Can you find Waldo Steve Wozniak in the Price Is Right audience? MacRumors forum member mrbrown thinks he did, and we tend to agree with him. He even has a “Steve” name tag, how cute! Good thing he didn’t get called on stage though. Despite being one of the more down-to-Earth billionaires, he’s still a billionaire, and I doubt he would have been able to... Read More

Celebrity Mac Chick-a-Palooza 1: Adriana Lima

Do you know how long I have stalked followed Miss Lima’s career, hoping to find a picture of her using Apple gear? Well, finally, faithful Macenstein reader Bilal has come to my rescue, and found a picture of Lima holding an iPhone (never mind that she seems to also be holding some other model phone). Also shown is her basketball playing fiance Marko Jaric. Now, because... Read More
