Posted Monday, December 01, 2008 10:31 PM by stevecla01
Get it whilst it’s good…seems it’s being pulled from YouTube and Hulu at the moment. You know you’ve reached Zen cool status when The Simpson’s parodies you. Read More...

10 Reasons The Zune Beats The iPod. Seriously.

Posted Wednesday, November 26, 2008 9:58 AM by stevecla01
Okay, we know that the Zune doesn’t beat the iPod where it matters (sales) so this is sort of like BetaMax/VHS but the Zune really is an increasingly impressive device. I’m beginning to wonder if it’ll become the cult device that is sort of cooler than Read More...

Like most of the rest of the web I watched the Apple Macbook announcements this evening albeit after a fine pint of Guinness in London village. After all is said and done (which will take a while in the blogosphere bubble I live in) the graph above tells Read More...

Pod Lovin’

Posted Sunday, September 14, 2008 12:45 AM by stevecla01
I have to hand it to Apple, for years they’ve had a truly stunning home page on www.apple.com It helps to have some great eye candy in terms of products but many other companies who do don’t deliver with the visual impact that Apple achieves. Their latest Read More...

The Fall of Google, the Rebirth of Microsoft and the Changing Face of Apple and Linux

Posted Wednesday, August 20, 2008 11:55 PM by stevecla01
I usually try to re-title my posts from the originator but on this occasion I felt the title of a recent post had to stay. There is a whole load of commentary in Rob’s post that is of course music to my ears, and on Apple in particular he was joined this Read More...

A belated Happy Birthday to the iMac

Posted Tuesday, August 19, 2008 11:27 PM by stevecla01
  [image credit – ArsTechnica ] I certainly have my fair share of criticism on this blog about Apple but I’m still a fan of Jonathan Ive and what he’s done there with Steve Jobs. Credit where it’s due - they singlehandedly dragged the PC industry Read More...

Marks & Spencer Does Geek Fashion for Skool

Posted Thursday, August 14, 2008 5:17 PM by stevecla01
Back when I was at school I was regularly questioned about my interpretation of the school dress code – I don’t mean I wore a dress but I never thought Farah trousers were outside “the code”. The code as I soon worked out basically meant you had to buy Read More...

Biting the Apple

Posted Tuesday, August 05, 2008 11:05 PM by stevecla01
[image credit - http://www.h4x3d.com ] There is a definite turn of perception over the last few weeks about Apple – no doubt some of it down to issues with MobileMe and the iPhone 2.0 but my sense is it’s more due to their growing popularity and whilst Read More...

Dell finding their style

Posted Wednesday, July 30, 2008 10:11 PM by stevecla01
Earlier this week I got an email from Dell and as is increasingly the case, it caught my eye. Michael’s boys are doing a nice job of adding some colour and style to their lineup and (cough) even challenging Apple. Well…. maybe not . The Dell Studio Hybrid Read More...

  [image credit – Engadget ] I just read on Twitter that Apple is blogging – with Steve Jobs apparently asking one of his staff to post daily about the MobileMe debacle . I was about to welcome them in to the warm blogging waters but one thing is Read More...

MobileMe has a Mossberg cloud over it

Posted Thursday, July 24, 2008 11:36 PM by stevecla01
Oh dear…Uncle Walt sings the death knell for Apple’s MobileMe. It’s a shame as the concept is great but as Apple has found, implementation of cloud services at scale may mean they need to take a few “Geniuses” off the bar and back to the datacentre. Meantime, Read More...

MobileMe malware?

Posted Monday, July 21, 2008 11:39 PM by stevecla01
  Well I’d never really thought of it as malware but that’s what one comment on my blog said about Apple sneaking MobileMe on to Windows via the iTunes 7.7 update.   Thor, the difference between Apple installing a MobileMe control panel and Read More...
