A good look at the new unibody Macbook.

Engineers have created a new fingernail-size chip that can hold 1 trillion bytes (a terabyte) of data — 50 times the capacity of today’s best silicon-based chip technologies.

I wonder what these will cost if they ever become publicly available.

A good idea, but could become cluttered. I guess it depends on how Google decides to implement it.

Ouch.

Rather than pelting you with alerts, warnings, and requests, it would try to stay out of your face. And if any bundled applications weren’t essential, it would dump ‘em.

This is what I love about Windows 7. As opposed to Vista, the alerts are kept to a minimum along with other annoyances.

Windows 7 is hardly flawless. Some features feel unfinished; others won’t realize their potential without heavy lifting by third parties.

I think it’s as close to flawless as Windows can get.

The new Apple Remote eschews the iPod shuffle-like buttons of the previous product. Instead, it has changed the circular controls, menu and play buttons to black. In addition, the play button has been moved from the center of the circle. It is now located just below it.

Like Apple’s iPhone, iPod Touch, and, more recently laptop trackpads, the top surface is a multi-touch panel. Swipe two fingers up, down, or side to side, and the page onscreen scrolls. Pinch and spread to zoom in and out on photos.

I love how clean the design is. I’m still not sure that I could get used to using something like it, though.

Apple on Tuesday announced an update to the Mac mini line of compact desktop Mac systems, adding faster processors, doubling memory capacity, and introducing a new server configuration that trades an optical drive for more storage.

The new iMac, built with the unibody technique, comes in two sizes, with 21.5- and 27-inch screens. It’s got the same edge-to-edge glass of the MacBook Pro and will have Core 2 Duo and new Core i5/i7 quad-core options.

The quad core models are very appealing.

We just took delivery of Apple’s new MacBook — it’s an interesting revision to the MacBook formula, built using the same unibody techniques as the Aluminum Pros but with white plastic.

The Company posted revenue of $9.87 billion and a net quarterly profit of $1.67 billion, or $1.82 per diluted share.

Really great results.

Apple sold 3.05 million Macintosh® computers during the quarter, representing a 17 percent unit increase over the year-ago quarter.
