Flickering Displays and Flabbergasting Cases

This new video has turned up showing the new Macbook not playing very nicely through Thunderbolt to his friend, Mr. Apple Display..





He has been told to check Software Update "soon". How useful..


In other brief news, check out this beautiful case! It's been out forever, but my point is that it's now available in iPad 2 flavours!

Solid-State-Drives for Macbook Pros?

The new thunderbolt-equipped Macbook Pros I talked about last week have a little secret.


They are shipping with Mac OS 10.6.6, which supplies TRIM support for bundled Apple Solid State Drives.


What does that you mean, you may ask?


It means we should prepare for some super-fast Macbook Pros. ;]

New 2011 Macbooks!

As a proud owner of a late 2009 Macbook Pro, I'd be lying if I said I was impressed by the new Macbook lineup.

I know there was no more than a press release to accompany them, but I don't think I'm the only one a little disappointed. I have read many opinions on this and it appears we were all expecting a bit more than spec updates and a new hole to stick stuff.

Now don't get me wrong, they're very impressive! I'm also very jealous as the stock 13" starts at £999.. When I bought mine, I got it on University discount, at £897 with 2GB upgraded to 4GB, and 120GB HDD upgraded to 250GB HDD.

Such is life with technology...
