iTunes 9.0.2 is out, Apple TV 3.0 as well, and they love each other

Oct 29th 2009 5:24PM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

Anyone having issues with home brew iTunes LP files? such as the ones from http://ituneslp.net/ ? iTunes seems to ignore the file and just add the contents of the folder.

Mac Pro refresh brings high-end graphics to the Mac

probably away since it doesnt have mini display port and if I had to guess based on cost probably wasn't worthwhile for nvidia to make a special version with the port just for the mac pro.

Apple's new keyboards sans number pads

Mar 3rd 2009 3:02PM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

This seems to continue apples obsession with making things smaller. One of the reasons I still have an external keyboard is the bigger keys, number pad etc. I think it should be an option not standard config.

Mac Pro refresh brings high-end graphics to the Mac

Looking at tech specs for both items the mac pro is 20.1" tall while the 24" cinema display is 18.84" so not even an inch and a half difference. Nothing to see here.

If I had to guess theyre slower. I would say the 2.66 is close if not slightly faster in performance to the old 2.8's but 2.26 is a stretch.

Also forgot to mention the base model 8 core is a 2.26 GHz not a 2.66 GHz. Granted these are faster processors at same specs as old ones but 2.8to 2.26 I think is a downgrade no matter how you slice it.

I haven't seen anyone point out that these no longer take FB Dimms which is why the ram is so much cheaper.

Engadget HD Holiday Giveaway (part I): Sling Media's Slingbox PRO-HD

I would love to be able to use this while vacationing in nicaragua

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm looking for a wireless trackpad to use with my older (2.5 or so years old) C2D MacBook that's perpetually docked to my home theater. Something sleek, thin, not too small, made of high quality materials. Ideally, it would natively support all of (Snow) Leopard's multitouch inputs, and even more ideally, it would have a charging dock / base. The only problem is that I'm not sure that such a thing even exists. Think you can throw me a bone?"
