MobileMe Looks an Awful Lot Like Windows Me

MobileMe, Apple’s replacement for .Mac, was announced at WWDC and something struck me (and some others) as a little odd: its logo is remarkable similar to a notorious software disaster from nearly a decade ago, Windows ME. Would a company so famous for the creation of household brand names really release MobileMe, and make it…

The NY Times has a good interview with Steve Jobs in which Apple’s CEO lets fly with very quotable, very understandable quotes about OS X 10.6.

Thinnest Notebook Showdown: Voodoo Envy 133 vs. MacBook Air

Voodoo’s Envy 133 notebook is skinny slice of hotness-basically the skinniest notebook alive when it launches (only .7 inches thick), bumping the MacBook Air into the fatty column, courtesy of its .76-inch bulge. It sounds good on paper for the Envy 133, but the Air’s slick tapering definitely masks its love handle, so even though…
