Hmmm... Might be time to knock EUR24,016.13 off that thing

Fri, 13 Feb 2009 20:11:14 -0800

Remember last year when that "beautiful" EUR26,000, gold and crystal-covered MacBook Air by Bling My Thing made its ultra-classy debut? Well, guess what still hasn't sold... Faithful Macenstein reader Fabrizio writes: "Hi Doc, I live in Berlin (Germany) and last week as i went to buy something in a Ka.de.We (the biggest Store in europe like [...]

Man, I haven't been hurting for "Stupid Mac News" like this since the "Stupid Mac News Famine" of '02. Well, lucky for me I have both YouTube and my faithful Macenstein readers to keep me alive (if just barely). Making it a 3-in-a-row video post trifecta (and a straight box for fake Apple ads), [...]

Taliban leader "addicted" to his iPhone

Fri, 13 Feb 2009 04:09:30 -0800

When I hear the word "Taliban", many (largely bearded) images spring to mind, but an iPhone is not one of them. However, according to a recent report by Al Jazeera, the iPhone is quickly becoming one of the Taliban's favorite Tools of Terror (and no, we aren't just talking about the farting apps).

I have no idea what this just did...

Um... OK. Hooray, another enigmatic Apple update! Anyone know what this did? I assume this now resets my AT&T contract period and gives them the right to charge me for internet radio usage. I guess I'll find out next month...
