As you all already know I have been following this story closely since it broke awhile ago,  http://Psystar.com has been selling hakintosh's or mac clones, running os x on pc's , non labeled apple hardware. Apparently apple has sued Psystar. We all knew this was coming, from what I read on the news sites, Apple is asking for all money made from the pc's running os x and a product recall. I have personally played around with installing os x on non apple hardware, and I found it to be highly unstable, and I removed it from my system. I will keep you up to date on what happens in the future. I would not recommend buying a pystar computer, Just buy a mac, or go to ebay and find an older apple computer if you want a  cheap way to use os x. I do however think apple should allow people to install os x on pc's, but that debate has been going on for a long time ever since os x was released for intel. I dont really see it happening but we can always hope.

I am back, everything is now back to normal and posting will resume

It really is a great program I can't believe it never took off, I personally will probably never use it as it is out-dated software but it still was great for it's time.

What I here from all of the tech news sites is that the new manufacturing cost of the new iphone is $173 down from the first gen iphone which cost $226 to make. Apple is putting a lot more technology into the new iphone and it costs less! We all know apple is probably making the majority of there money from att, it takes a big cutt of the profits of each att customer it gets, which is the reason why you have to activate in store, Apple does not want to loose the att money. I really think att should allow pay as you go service for the iphone it just makes since for people who cant afford a monthly bill. If you however do not want to deal with att, then my suggestion would be to just get a ipod touch, I did and I love it, You do however miss out on some key features like the phone, and gps service and the digital camera, and other feautures not listed.

" Sony will soon add a Google Internet search feature as part of a software update for the PlayStation Portable "

I think this is great news for the playstation portable. It will make internet browsing that much easier on the device. The psp web browser is still very crippled because it has no flash or java. I would love for sony to add 3rd party apps for the psp, then maybe we could see a port of firefox on the psp.

I have uploaded a new video to youtube and I would like to share it with you

changing gears ,  one more day until the new version of Firefox!!!! I recommend you go to http://www.spreadfirefox.com/ and pledge to download firefox 3 on the day it is released, I highly recommend you do this, if everyone downloads it in one day we can make history :)

Mozilla has slated june 17 as the release date of Firefox 3.0, I have played with the release candidates and they have been pretty stable, and they have fixed the memory link problem with firefox, The user browser ui has changed slightly but nothing too different and it is easy to get used to, I have found the release candidates to be overall faster than the current firefox, and some have stated that it is the fastest web browser avalible.

I will be looking foward to it and and I will post my opinion when the final version is released.
