Apple Made Some Stuff...

Apple have made the world's thinnest laptop, the MacBook Air. They've also released a new network backup device.

Trusted Reviews have slated the MacBook Air for having no optical drive, only one usb socket, no firewire port, a sealed battery, a sealed hard drive, and more importantly, no ethernet (network) port, leaving the laptop to rely on a wireless network connection.

Update: Further design issues: USB devices don't fit.

Safari now for the PC

Apple have released the Safari browser for the PC. They reckon it's the quickest web browser available and have graphs to prove it and everything. Although we all (should) know that you can use graphs to prove anything... They've updated it due to the security flaws.

Creative Zen Stone


A cute 1gb mp3 player for £27 - (compares favourably to the £55 apple want for their cheapest player) - and it's small enough that you can use it as a keyring / keychain! details here. I want one now. Anyone want to buy a 30gb ipod?

Get a Mac Adverts Updated

Apple's "Get a Mac" adverts have been updated to show a PC running the new Vista - the new one's called "Security" - and "Surgery" is about the PC being upgraded to Vista.

"In a sketch clearly aimed at exposing just one of the weak spots in Windows Vista, Apple's ad is critical of Microsoft's intrusive User Account Control (UAC) element, and of Windows security across the board. The ad features a third character who represents the UAC. The third character interrupts the flow of communication between Mac and PC with a constant string of permission requests."

All the UK Adverts are here, there are more than I thought.
