The Brick Revealed

Posted by: admin on October 15th, 2008

Turns out it was the process. Go figure. You can see the video here. Apple also refreshed the laptop lineup providing more power under the hood. There is a new look to the Macbook bringing it in line with the rest of the products (everything looks like the iPhone).  Also an update to the monitors. The whole product lineup is looking sharp.

Peanut Gallery

Listen, I know many of you come to this blog to read about Mac/Apple products.  And I appreciate your constructive input for the blog. We visit these cloud computing solutions because these products could be better than anything that is currently being offered on the Apple platform. For example, I see no reason to review Adobe’s Buzzword, because we already have really solid solutions for word processing (sorry Adobe, I still love Acrobat). But products like Clio, Rocket Matter, Evernote and the other recent releases in SaaS seem very relevant to Mac users because we are all looking for the perfect Case/Office Management System. As we continue this quest, I will keep my eyes on both horizons.

What is the Brick?

Posted by: admin on October 6th, 2008

I guess we will here soon. For the last two weeks every website that follows mac rumors is talking about the brick. The speculation ranges from iTV updates, Macbook updates, Apple hubs to Macbook structural principles.  Apple has always been good about keeping a lid on things. We will hear soon enough.

Coming Soon to Rocket Matter (SaaS for the Mac)

Posted by: admin on October 6th, 2008

I reviewed Rocket Matter a few months back and was impressed with their SaaS. I received an inside tip  tonight that Rocket Matter is rolling out interesting upgrades. I look forward to seeing the implementation of these upcoming features. If it looks as good as it sounds, it should be a welcomed (albeit unique) addition. Keep an eye on their blog in the next 24 hours for an update.  email-sig-v2.gif
