All In One MacBook Air
Remember the good old C64, the home PC that was all enclosed in a keyboard? Kinda like the first laptop sans screen. A crafty hacker has done just that. By using the guts of a MacBook Air, a thin Mac keyboard and Apple’s new trackpad he has created an all in one keyboard based Mac. [...]
Pure Gold PC
We have featured many things that would explain why people with tons of money are really stupid. But it seems that every time I stumble across some new over priced useless piece of technology it beats the last. Take this solid gold (yes solid, not plated) PC. I’m not quite sure how much gold is [...]
New Macbook?
We all know how rumours start swirling around the internet when it comes to Apple. There hasn’t been a major product from Apple that hasn’t had its share or rumours. The iPhone, AppleTV, new iPods, they have all had their share of chat on the internet. Apple is set to announce some new products tomorrow, [...]
MSI Wind Modded Into A MacBook Mini
Adding OS X to his MSI Wind wasn’t enough so he took it one step further and added the ever so familiar glowing Apple logo to the back of the screen. A dremel, six white LEDs, some tape and aluminum foil was all this crafty hacker needed to mod this into a MacBook Mini. Maybe [...]
New MacBook Pro Or Wannabe MacBook Pro
I agree with all the Mac faithful in this world. We need a new MacBook Pro (now that I just purchased a fully loaded on a few weeks ago) but this has to be one of the worst photoshop jobs I have ever seen. Bad clone stamping everywhere, janky right corner, the dock seems to [...]
Mamebook – Macbook Arcade Cabinet
Got an old Macbook laying around? Why not make your very own cocktail arcade cabinet with it. Crafty hacker Frederic Sebton decided to do something with the broken Macbook he had laying around. He crammed the internals into an Ikea Ramvik sideboard and with a little finessing and hacking he came up with this great [...]
OS X On A MSI Wind
Seems that install Linux on computers is so yesterday. Now everyone wants to put OS X on their machine (I still run Linux on my MacBook Pro, go figure). The latest computer to fall into the hackintosh realm is the MSI Wind. A crafty hacker on this forum has laid out everything you need to [...]
Is This The New Mac?
Could this be the new MacBook Pro, the aluminum Mac’s that have been shipping? I sure hope not, I just bought a fully loaded MacBook Pro last week. The above image comes to us courtesy of a German division of T-Mobile. This image clearly looks like a rending and not an actual image, but rumours [...]
Apple Sept 08 Event: Wrap Up
Now that the “Let’s Rock” even has come and gone, let’s take a look at what Apple has brought into our laps. HD TV Shows Right off the bat Steve announced the arrival of HD TV shows to the iTunes store. The shows will cost you $2.99 a pop (instead of the $1.99 you pay [...]
Asus N10 Pricing Confirmed
A couple weeks ago we talked about Asus’s next UMPC, the N10. While we reported that the price tag would probably be somewhere in the $500 to $600 range, well, we were wrong. The beautiful looking N10 is ready for pre-order for $850, not exactly in the budget notebook realm. I’m sure it’s an awesome [...]
DasBoot – Turn An Old iPod Into A Bootable Toolkit
I used to be the resident hardware hacker on the Lab with Leo Laporte show that aired in Canada and Australia, and while combing through some of my segments I stumbled on something I did last year that just saved my MacBook. DasBoot allows you to take any external storage device, like an old iPod, [...]
Rumour – Is This The New MacBook?
Could these really be the leaked pictures of a redesigned MacBook? My guess is no, but after all of the hoopla with the photos of the new nano that rolled around last year this might actually be true. Mac accessories store AppleOwner.com and a Taiwanese site called apple.pro are both showing these allegedly leaked photos, [...]
Only For The Uber-Geek
If you are willing to be seen in public with any Star Trek mementos (some of us are closet trekies) then these fabulous engravings are for you. I’m not sure who does these, but if someone knows who is creating these master pieces please do let us know. I’d love to have a blood thirsty [...]
Macworld Keynote
Just like was expected the blog-o-sphere went crazy over the Macworld keynote by Steve Jobs. Almost every blog was live-blogging the event, live-blogging the live blogs, and live blogging the live blogging of the live blogging (you get the idea). This is why I wanted to wait until all of the mass hysteria over the [...]
