We get it, Windows means cheap hardware {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
May 18th 2009 10:20AM This was entirely too reasonable and even-handed for a Mac blog. More shrill, drooling fanboyism in the future, please.
iPhone 101: Reboot your iPhone for better gaming {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Dec 18th 2008 10:32AM Oh, so maybe the app disappearing from my phone was actually a TUAW problem... Great.
iPhone 101: Reboot your iPhone for better gaming {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Dec 18th 2008 10:20AM I bought SimCity and didn't have any problems playing it for a few hours, but after I synced my phone to the computer, the app just disappeared. Is this an iPhone problem or a SimCity problem?
Two Apple iPhone apps: Remote Control and Texas Hold'em {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jul 10th 2008 9:57AM So, it looks like the Remote app will only control your iTunes music library. It doesn't mention being able to browse AppleTV movies, photos, YouTube, etc. That's kind of a bummer, and I'm not sure why it's the case. Lord knows it would be much easier to type a search phrase on the iPhone than to go. one. letter. at. a. time. with the Apple Remote.
Apple TV (take 2) update delayed {Engadget}
Jan 30th 2008 1:41PM By that logic, any product delay is just "someone else's fault." Manufacturers are expected to give accurate ship dates. The fact that they didn't shore up their components before announcing ship dates speaks poorly of them.
Apple TV (take 2) update delayed {Engadget}
Jan 30th 2008 1:07PM Apple's really off the ball. I ordered a Mac Pro right after they were announced. One of the built-to-order components I got caused a 2 week delay, and I just got a notice this week that it would be delayed ANOTHER few weeks. Grrr...
When is HD not HD? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 30th 2008 1:02AM Pixar movies on DVD are progressive scan, just like most DVDs. They wouldn't be "deinterlaced" on your TV unless you've got a non-progressive-scan DVD player that's somehow up-rezzed to 1080p by another piece of hardware along the way.
When is HD not HD? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 30th 2008 12:59AM Still not quite right. Movies are converted to 30fps (er, 29.997fps) for TV via a 3:2 pulldown, but DVDs and digital content (as in iTunes) are delivered at the original framerate -- i.e., 24fps for movies.
When is HD not HD? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 29th 2008 10:56PM They use the same h.264 codec, yes, but the bitrate can vary greatly. That's where the difference comes from.

Jan 29th 2008 10:26PM Movies are shot 24p. "Funky" it ain't.
