Photoshop and trackpad gestures {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
May 13th 2008 3:00PM "Ivan also wishes for user-defined gestures, something that only seems logical for Apple to implement."
Well, that's obviously coming, but in the meantime why didn't you link to Multiclutch? User defined gestures in a quickly installed freeware pref pane. I just used upswipe to trigger my Quicksilver shelf to retreive my TUAW password.
Philadelphia's citywide WiFi close to shutting down {Engadget}
May 11th 2008 1:49AM @ByronGman:
Look, I know having numbered points and using words like "ergo" usually is enough to win arguments on the internet, but I've got to call you on this one. The there are two important things about stealing people's bandwidth:
1. You don't pay per kilobyte, you pay per month, thus unused bandwidth is wasted, and
2. Most people are only actively using the internet about 10% of the time (I say most people, not most people who are in the comments threads on Engadget)
Thus, using someone's bandwidth 90% of the time only rips off the cable/phone companies, something I have *absolutely* no problem with. It makes about as much sense for an appartment building to have 15 DSL lines for 15 people to browse the 'net as it does for an office to buy a photocopy machine for every cubicle. The only people who benefit from the current system are the corps that sell you the cable/dsl lines.
Canon Rebel XSi review roundup {Engadget}
May 10th 2008 4:07AM Why Canon keeps using these cheap feeling bodies for it's low end cameras is beyond me, I can't imagine it costs any significant amount more to put some meat in them. When I bought my D50 two years ago, it was incredible the difference in feel between the Rebel XT and the D50. Unfortunately, Nikon has followed Canon's lead and revamped it's low end into the inferior D40/60 body.
Seriously Nikon/Canon, low end cameras don't need to come in toy packages. Lets get a real grip on there, at least.

Windows XP SP3 hits Windows Update, Vista SP1 makes a comeback {Engadget}
May 6th 2008 4:54PM That's the funniest thing I've seen all day, and I don't have any idea what you're talking about.
The philosophy of iMac {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
May 6th 2008 2:24PM I'm currently on my 3rd iMac, dating back to the G3 years. All of them have had RAM maxed out later in their lives, and the last two have gotten hard drive upgrades. For the most part, I like to spend my time working with my computers rather than working on them. As a musician, I had to learn early on that you can spend your whole life tinkering with your gear to get it just right, but then you haven't actually made any music. That's my attitude toward my computer: as long as the box is working, it's more important that I spend time exercising my own creativity than fighting the machine.
Ask Engadget: Which are the best full-size headphones? {Engadget}
May 1st 2008 6:50PM I third (or fifth) that. DT770s are one of the best things I've ever bought.
Ask Engadget: Which are the best full-size headphones? {Engadget}
May 1st 2008 6:48PM Maybe a little out of the price range ($250) but my Beyerdynamic DT770's are like angels singing in my ears, which are enveloped in velour pads. No kidding, velour pads.
MacBook Air users still faced with overheating problems? {Engadget}
Apr 30th 2008 6:58PM My thoughts exactly. I think you're seeing engadget respond to the fact that any time they post something having to do with apple, a bunch of commenters come out of the woodwork to accuse them of "apple bias." How I love the interwebs.
