Bzzzzzap!

Tuesday, 20 March, 2007

Here are Cyber we are a mixed bunch. Half of our team prefer PC the others Mac. As with all PC and Mac users we are constantly having "chats" about the benefits of one platform over another and so on.

About 10 minutes ago this favourite topic of conversation arose again as our office suffered a minor power failure. The lights turned off, and a scream of "F*%$##@&%" arose from the design room.

Our PC designer Kyle just lost the last half hours worth of work. Our Mac designers Matt and Homaira however continued working throughout the powerfailure. Apparently Mac's have some tricky internals that allow them to function in the event of a minor power outage. How cool.

I guess that kind of goes towards redeeming the massive price difference! ;)

 

Whilst trying to re-configure my PC after a complete hardware replacement I tried to download itunes for Vista when I encountered this error.


This certinally makes me feel better to know that even the big guns experiance website errors every once in awhile.

 

I want it! The latest offering from Apple the iPhone is certinally the biggest launch of the year (granted the year hasnt progressed far) and is certinally one of the coolest devices i have ever seen.

Sporting a massive 3.5inch touch sensitive screen, soft qwerty keyboard, 4 - 8 GB of memory and OSX this thing has the brains and brawn to take the place of every handheld device you currently own.

It even has a fully functional web browser which means that it should be able to support all current website functions such as flash, animations and embeded video.

I can see myself now, walking to the sound of my favourite tune, surfing the web and just toying with the itunes cover float feature!

The only problem is that it won't be available in Australia until at least 2008!

I knew i should have bought some Apple Stock!
