A little bit of Netiquette doesn't hurt (FUNNY)

This might make someone think twice before going on an all-caps blitz!

The New MacBook! (HANDS-ON)

I forgot to mention that the new aluminum MacBook made it's way to our office a few days after it was announced. I was really surprised at how small the box was compared the previous generation. I know, right? The laptop was really COLD right out of the box as well! The build seemed really solid like they claimed. I didn't really have time to go through it extensively but I liked the way it looked and it ran as smooth as any Mac would. They're packing 1067 Mhz DDR3 memory! Holy Cow. Enough talk. Enjoy the pictures!

Guitar Hero 4.. Superstars?

Ok. Here's the deal. I love how this commercial has Michael Phelps, Kobe Bryant, Tony Hawk & A-Rod. I DON'T like how they're rocking pink shirts and singing the weirdest song in the world. What are you trying to say, huh? Kobe, get your monkey ass outta this commercial. You're the reigning NBA MVP for christ's sake!

Please fix the iPhone!

A bunch of guys created a website for iPhone addicts and fanboys to post what they would love to see fixed or introduced into their beloved iPhones. I love my iPhone but it needs a lot more features.

Show your frustration. If more and more people lets Jobs know about what the Jesus Phone is missing, he might pay attention!

"Murs" Live in Missoula, MT 10-12-08 (VIDEO)

This was a dope show. I've been bumping "Murs For President" all day! Here's the opening act, local boys "XI". I know the bass sucks in the videos but that's what happens when you're standing two feet from the damn speakers!



Right up next was Isaiah, his set was pretty good, too.



Kids in the Hall crew rocked this place.



Finally, the reason we were all there, MURS! His set was ridiculous! In this video, he performed "Can It Be".



This was an amazing show. Even though it was Sunday night, I still had a blast. Thanks for stopping by Murs!

Corsair 4GB DDR2 667 Mac Memory $45 AR

I'm not a big fan of rebates at all. I'm still waiting on a $30 rebate which will probably arrive when I turn 45. This, however, is a rare exception to that rule. Memory for the Mac is very hard to get because of it's price point. I'm pretty sure it's because of the not-so-public Apple Tax. Whatever, if you need to bump up your precious MacBook or MacBook Pro (especially if want to snag one of those new ones that were announced today!), then this a great deal. Be weary of the the mail-in rebate, though (groan).

Could this be the Kindle 2?

I've never paid a lot of attention to the Kindle simply because I'm not an avid reader of any kind, but it came to my attention when I worked for Random House, Inc. this past summer. It looks like e-books and e-book readers are going to be the future of the publishing industry.

I've seen a few Kindles but never actually held one in my hand. At Random House, Inc. they were issuing Sony e-book readers to a couple of their employees. If the above is to be believed, then Kindle fans have something to look forward to!
