Apple News

Okay. If the Nano was not enough to give you gadget drool, then this, the v-iPod (it should have vi), should. Nice.

Except some people are unhappy with all the press that Apple has been garnering lately. Is it really deserved?

I take it with a grain of salt. I am an Apple fanatic. Most importantly, a Mac fan. I think OS X is the shiznit. Yet, I am not so enthused about the iPod. But whatever keeps Apple afloat to churn out more Macs, I am in favor for.

So, go ahead and complain about the hype surrounding an Apple product launch. Don’t forget to mention that there have been failed Apple products. Don’t forget to mention that Apple has a small percent of the computing market share. Don’t forget that Apple is always on the verge of disappearing.

But don’t forget that she’s still around. And she’s beating the bigger guys in the market of ideas and innovation.

The Amazing Race Season 8 Family Edition

I am still digging on the Amazing Race Family Edition. But it’s not as fun as the normal style, because they are going to be sticking in the US. There seems to be no flights to foreign lands which, if you know anything about the Amazing Race, the airport is the great equalizer.

Today’s episode had them running around York, PA and then onto Washington, D.C. Just around my backyard. I wondered when they did this? I would’ve liked to have seen them running. They did go down I-83, and I was expecting them to be stuck circling the beltway trying to find I-95 south.

This style is going to be a drag, if they don’t start bunching. I think I am still rooting for the all girls squad. Also, the son-in-laws.

Defeated

The battle with the itunes iplaylist inotifier has been lost and I deleted the offending post. Right here would be a link to that post, but it is gone now. Check Google’s cache to see if it is still there. Or maybe in my archive links on the right.

Now it should look good for those on IE.
