The Apple Macintosh: Celebrating 25years of PC Bashing

This is (restored) classic footage, happy anniversary and a big get well soon to Steve Jobs.

AT&T dropping prices?

According to the engadget, att may be dropping their unlimited messaging+data plan to 30bux a month. I think the best part about this, is that att acknowledges that their plans suck. If they came up with some more competitive (not just matching) pricing, they would definately hold the throne.

MAC WORLD 09′

Well it went down today. Sorry there was no Mac Mini. Here are the major announcements:

iTunes will now be (for the most part) DRM FREE !!! That means its now okay for you to buy a song and do whatever the hell with it, including put it on devices other than an iPod.

You can now download music to your iPhone 3G, without being connected to WiFi

The 17″ Unibody Macbook pro was also announced and will be shipping soon. Although they mentioned that the battery life has drastically improved (8hrs), it’s non-removable. How do you guys feel about that??

For those of you iLife and iWork users, the 09 version is shipping with tons of new features. We will have to dig into these in a later post. The new Geo-Tagging / Integration with Facebook is very slick.

The new version of Garage band has something I think is very exciting for the music industry. You can now learn how to play musical instruments, using your Mac. The software comes bundled with video lessons from pro-musicians. To spice things up even more, Apple is reaching out to popular artists and offering premium lessons for around $4.95 a video. This is the kind of progress that the music industry needs. Who knows what this could lead to…..
