    Steve Jobs' Original Name for the iMac Was So Horrifying It Would Explode Your Ears

    The iMac Cylon Mask Is Both Trick and Treat

    Giz reader Gary Katz has definitely fixed his iMac-o'-lantern error with this wonderful and even dorkierer iMac Cylon Mask. It uses an old lamp iMac base and Larson Scan Kit, like the one used in the Cylon Pumpkin. [Thanks Gary]

    Apple Kills ZFS Plans for Snow Leopard

    Don't hold your breath for the ZFS filesystem to appear in any future Snow Leopard updates. A message yesterday on the project's homepage very clearly acknowledges that development has stopped completely. More »

    New Unibody LED MacBook Hands On

    At the center of today's minor product explosion, Apple's refreshed $1000 White MacBook is the only right-fielder: It's got a rubberized bottom, multitouch trackpad, LED backlighting, the MacBook Pro's non-replaceable battery, and healthy spec bumps. UPDATED More »

    Apple Crushes Recession by Selling More Macs and iPhones Than Ever Before

    Apple just sold more Macs and iPhones than ever before: 3.05 million Macs and 7.4 million iPhones. iPods, doomed that they are, are still dying. But, Steve promises "some really great new products in the pipeline for 2010." Updated live. More »

    OS X 10.6.2 Beta Addresses Hard Drive Killing Bug

    We know that Apple is aware of the data-annihilating Guest Account bug in Snow Leopard, and it looks like a fix is on the way. The latest 10.6.2 beta seeded to developers specifically addresses the issue, and throws in a few other tweaks for good measure. If you're staring at that Guest Account on the login screen with fear and loathing, sit tight. Hopefully this will all be resolved soon. [9to5 Mac]

    Chrome for Mac Coming in Months Says Guy Nominally in Charge of Google

    I'm not sure how much we can weight we can put in the prognostications of Eric Schmidt, since he doesn't even know when the company he's theoretically in charge of buys entire other companies for millions of dollars, BUT if you're just looking for some hope, he says that Chrome for Mac will be done in months. Not too surprising, though, since the Chromium builds have been getting more solid for a while now. [MediaMemo]

    The Real Reason You Got Back So Much Hard Drive Space With Snow Leopard

    Sure, Apple carved out a lot extra code, like printer drivers you don't need. But you're also seeing additional space where you didn't used to, because Snow Leopard calculates disk capacity differently than Leopard (or Windows, for that matter). More »
