Obama uses Zune. Will iPod fans demand apology?

Posted by Eric Benderoff at 5:25 p.m. Here’s what we know about President-elect Barack Obama and gadgets: He loves his BlackBerry. He’s a Mac, not a PC. He was seen working out with a Zune. Wait…a Zune? Not an iPod? Is it too late for a recount? Obama’s alleged choice […]

Apple, OS X (Leopard) and antivirus

December 4, 2008 Stick with the old notion of variant anti-virus products, and note that Apple reluctantly admitted their products need the AV products too.  Get more of the market share (watch out, Linux users) and you get more scams directed at you.  The warnings are coming out all over the ‘net, so this […]

I Guess It’s Boxee Day at AVC

I knew Boxee was going to announce Netflix support this week and I guess I should have waited and written one post instead of two, but the timing didn’t work out. So in addition to the video of Avner’s interview that I posted this morning, here’s the Netflix news: you can […]

Are cell phone holsters for losers?

There are two ladies in the Learfield IT department. Not only are they smart and competent, they’re hip and attractive. So when they told me my new iPhone belt holster would mark me as a nerdy lamer, I was dismayed. All my Mac buddies keep their iPhone proudly strapped on their hips like 3G […]

The Rotten Apple

So Fring goes from 50 to 40 personnel. Big whoop. This is less a sign of trouble than of prudence. While the Fring layoff surprised Jan Geirnaert, Om Malik thinks it looks weak. It looks capital-conserving to me in light of the new economy. Skype’s clout matters in this space. […]
