How would you change Apple's Penryn-based MacBook Pro? {Engadget}
Feb 29th 2008 8:23PM It may seem strange, but I had been waiting for the new MacBook Pro in hopes they would adopt the same style keyboard as the rest of the line (Pro, iMac, MB Air, MB). I've been using a first gen MacBook for some time and have really fell in love with the keyboard. Given the rest of the line has it, I falsely assumed that the new MBP would have it as well.
I think we'll see a complete redesign of the MBP in the not too distant future from Apple... That's why that didn't make any changes to the current design, IMHO.
Cheers,
Randy

How to: Create a smart podcast playlist in iTunes {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Feb 1st 2008 12:19PM So, depending on the kind of podcasts that you listen to, this might be an easier way to accomplish
I set up a smart playlist that uses Podcast=true and then I limit it to a. 14 days and b. 2 gigabytes.
This won't work for your "occasional" podcasts, but for your regular stuff (NPR, Macworld, etc), it does a pretty good job.
One addition, I usually pull out the video podcasts (which don't work in playlists on the iPod Touch anyway, grrrr....) by saying "Kind does not contain QuickTime" or "MPEG-4."

TUAW Tip: Crack open the monolithic iPhoto '08 Library {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Aug 14th 2007 12:02PM Man.... so happy this is a package and not a giant binary file like I had originally thought. I lost an entire year's worth of email in Entourage because of their giant binary file years ago....ugh.

IOGEAR intros MiniView Micro DVI PS/2 KVM switch {Engadget}
Aug 14th 2007 11:48AM So, I'm totally with the folks above when questioning the PS/2 DVI combo. I'm a Mac guy, so I don't even know what PS/2 is (ok, I do, but I've never had it).
We've had USB on Macs for since 1999. Most PCs shipping within the last 5 years have had USB. Last, and most importantly, DVI has only been shipping on computers within the last several years, which is pretty much the same time frame as USB.
STUPID PRODUCT.
That said, I've returned 3 Belkin DVI switches, so maybe when IOGear gets their product line modernized, I'll try them out.
Sorry for the rant, but this product really irritates me.
Cheers,
Randy
