From a cost vs performance perspective, RAM is usually our favorite Mac upgrade. So we’re stoked that the new 3.06GHz iMac can handle up to 8GB, compared to just 4GB last time around. But be warned, taking advantage of that capacity is going to require some deep pockets–for now at least.

AI found Apple unceremoniously selling 8GB kits for its newer model 15-inch Unibody MacBook Pros (not the older 2.5GHz model). It is the same kit as they sell for the 17-inch unibody Macbooks and it is the same price. $1200. If you have to ask…

Event bookings for the San Francisco Moscone Center indicate that Apple may be planning its annual Worldwide Developer Conference in either mid-May or early June.

At 9 to 5 Mac Canada we have to admit we’re still a little giddy about the whole release yesterday. New hardware makes us… well lets just say overly excited. So now we’re coming down from the high (Canadian Beer is a lot stonger the American stuff) – and although we’re excited about the tech [...]
The internets spilled forth a juicy rumor this week that Apple was planning on having an event on March 24. With the Mac releases yesterday, we’re pretty sure if the event happens, it won’t be about them. So what will the rumored event bring us? Let the speculation commence!
I love an Apple event as much [...]
Apple updated its Time Capsule and Airport Extreme’s with some new features today. It isn’t yet clear if this is a hardware update or software only – we’re looking into this. Guest Sharing and Simultaneous dual-band support. Update: Oh, and a biggie, Internet sharing your Airport hard drive.
