Wednesday, October 25th, 2006Apple finally releases Intel Core 2 Duo versions of the 15 and 17" MacBook Pro. The concept of 200Gb of disk space and 3Gb of RAM is attractive, but we'll have to see ... I don't think Santa is that generous. Unless someone wants a 5 month old 15" MacBook Pro.
Myriad of things from Adobe. [...]
Google within del.icio.us using Custom Search Engine
Tuesday, October 24th, 2006I've always wanted a search engine for just the sites I've tagged in del.icio.us.
With Google Custom Search Engine, I've added my del.icio.us subscriptions page to the Included Sites. You could probably do the same thing with Google Marker from your subscriptions.
Yes, a smarter way of setting this up could be a dynamically generated page [...]
More Geek Toys
Tuesday, October 24th, 2006Google Custom Search Engine.

... and probably more toys to come tomorrow. Like Firefox 2.0 (formally). Rumours of new Apple laptop hardware. Probably some stuff from Adobe.

Choose your iPod Retailer Wisely
Monday, October 23rd, 2006Tim Kleemann, Managing Director (no less) of NextByte, responds to my post on "iShonky"
Tim's reply goes to show that you must buy from a retailer who cares.
So, armed with the facts from the horses' mouth: one must ask what data Choice has used to determine their "shonky-ness"?
The last thing we need in Australia is a [...]
Phar Lap Theory
Monday, October 23rd, 2006Conspiracy Theory #6574: There is always a new Phar Lap story just before Melbourne Cup.
Get over it people! Just like Russell Crowe, the horse is from New Zealand. Unlike Russell Crowe, the horse is DEAD!

Choice Magazine calls iPod Shonky
Thursday, October 19th, 2006The CHOICE iSHONK for Dual-level Shonkyness is awarded to the Apple iPod, mainly relating to the repair "procedure"
Choice Magazine has been the respected voice of Australian consumers; and with strong consumer protection laws in Australia: you must comply with the laws.
This comes on the back of the RMonvirus on 1% of video iPods sold after [...]

Monday, October 16th, 2006In my quest to read biographies of 20th Century Leaders (from Hitler and Stalin, Eisenhower, Truman, Churchill, John F. Kennedy, Khrushchev) - the latest completed bio is 'Mao: The Unknown Story' by Jung Chang and Jon Halliday.
Whilst there seems to be controversy in the historical community about some aspects of Jun Chang's facts: if even [...]
