Apple may have done it again with AirPort Express… Not sure how I feel about this innovation yet. It seems neat. Versatile. Sleek and chic. But is it too much packed in to too little at too high a price? Or maybe that’s just it. Maybe it really is “all that and more” and I’m […]
Top 5 Reasons for Rob to Get a Powerbook: Native dual-video out (and digital, no less!) means not only will the extended desktop action be covered under warranty but I can also more easily justify picking up that 20″ display I’ve been coveting. While you can jam a GB+ of RAM into one of the […]
