So much in love with shiny new toys, it's unnatural.

This is the second thing I found in my trip to the center of the Lego universe. Road sign or secret tip? I tried the keyboard combo in my PowerBook and it didn't work, but given the origin of the command symbol—as commanded by Steve Jobs and executed by Susan Kare—I thought it was well worth a try.

The U.S. Army's office of enterprise information systems is introducing Mac computers to its systems, it is hoped the move will render the Army less open to attack from hackers. Further, by having Macs as part of their system, it is less likely a single attack will take effect across the whole network. These new measures come at a time when the security of digital information has increasingly been under threat.
Sure, there have been Apple/Halloween mashups lately, but these Mac-o-Lanterns steal the show as far as I'm concerned. With the creative use of spray paint, some epoxy paste, and a little photoshop work, the guys over at Bad Banana Blog took an old Mac Classic and gave it new life as holiday decor. I'll be expecting Old St. Mac to rear his head when December rolls around. Check out more photos here. [Gadget Lab via Tuaw via Bad Banana Blog]
The horse has spoken: The eagerly anticipated, occasionally delayed Mac OS 10.5 Leopard is finally shipping. It will be available in 10 days, on Friday, October 26th, at 6pm in Apple Stores and at authorized resellers. Leopard may be the most ambitious MacOS update since the switch to OS X, with new features such as Time Machine, Spaces and Quick Look, plus updated iChat and Mail and a snazzy new Dock with Stacks. The upgrade will cost $129 for a single-user license, and $199 for five-user "family pack." Meanwhile, if you've bought a Mac anytime on or after October 1st, you'll get an upgrade for the cost of shipping ($9.95). Today's announcement has a few surprise features that we check out here, but we'll have an interview where we can dig for more. (Oh, and preorders start today at Apple's website.)
Apple also confirmed the simultaneous shipping of the Leopard Server software, and unveiled a new utility, Podcast Producer, "the ideal way to automatically publish podcasts to iTunes or the web."
The chaps at the Mac Store in Maryland Heights, Missouri, put their thinking hats on and constructed the best fanboy furniture we have ever seen. The Macintosh II couch is constructed from 20 Macintosh II computers, which are all held in place by drywall screws. The Macintosh for your tosh is not available for sale, which makes us so sad we might cry. Well, at least we can dream about the plastic sofa goodness, as we can about sex with a real human being. Honda isn't the only one that believes in the power of dreams. [New Launches]
