How Apple got to 100,000 apps, and why it won’t stop
You have a map for that, Verizon? Okay, well I see your map, and raise you an app. 100,000 apps, actually. Apple has announced that developers have created over 100,000 apps for the App Store (only a couple hundred of which have anything to do with farting). This is a number Apple’s competitors just won’t be able to reach, and I’m not even sure they understand why it’s important to try.

Apple Stores to use iPod touch to handle checkouts
One of the strangest things about the Apple Stores, in my opinion, is how they always used Windows based PDAs for customer checkouts not at the register. Sure, Apple didn’t want or really need to make their own system, but it was just a little strange to me. Now that… Continue Reading »

Apple updates the iMac
Along with several other updates, Apple gave some lovin’ to the all-in-one machine: the iMac. I believe it’s safe to say these updates have seriously improved the iMac. A few days ago, for serious computing, your best bet was probably the Mac Pro. Now, with up to 16GB of RAM… Continue Reading »

Almost as though he knew something, the Apple store has indeed gone down this morning, which leads… Continue Reading »
