Best Buy's Geek Squad is offering "Mac Optimization" in this week's circular for $39.99. They say it will "boost speed and performance to get your Mac ready for action." This is on new Macs, so the incentive must be greed as opposed to stealing info, music, or porn.
There is a yellowing problem with the new iMac screens (21 and 27) that causes the bottom 1/3 of the screens to be yellow compared to the top half of the screen. I have one and it is definitely yellow at the bottom and cool white at the top of the screen. It's a white point issue, Apple is replacing units for people who call, not sure what causes it. Hope you'll cover it. Here's a test screen I found on the internet so you can check your unit: [tapplox.com]
"Dell Offer Custom Chromium OS Download For Mini 10V" (the netbook).
"Dell has made available a customized download of Google's Chromium OS (the open-source version of Chrome OS), specifically for its popular Mini 10V netbook."
Hi Its LindsayJoy and I have an awesome Black Friday tip!
Here is the info:
If you're in the USA you can get a great discount over the coming weekend:
* Spend $100 and get $10 off
* Spend $200 and get $20 off
* Spend $300 and get $30 off
All three offers can be combined with the free shipping on orders over $99 offer. There is no promotional code needed: qualifying orders will have the discount automatically applied at checkout.
What's more, over 30 new items will be added to the 'sales and deals' page including Star Wars magnet sets and key chains which will be half price. Simply click through on the banner above and get shopping!
You guys *must* have covered it this already, and I just missed it, but:
"[Qualcomm] said a Lenovo smartbook running Android will launch on US mobile operator AT&T's network at the start of next year."
The "smartbook" will be Snapdragon powered (1 GHz), sporting 3G, WiFi and "other" radios (bluetooth? Edge? I dunno). Prototype pic below. Story from: [networks.silicon.com]
