2000

The new Apple, Dan Knight, Mac Musings. By not showcasing hardware, Steve Jobs is trying to teach us something important.

2002

Way beyond AirPort, Dan Knight, Mac Musings. Imagine the potential for high speed wireless Internet access from space....

2003

Jaguar on a 400 MHz PowerBook G4, Dan Knight, 10 Forward. I upgraded to Jaguar last Friday. Will it be good enough to make OS X my primary operating system?
iApps go from free to fee?, Dan Knight, Mac Musings. Rumors are that Apple will charge for upgrades to iPhoto, iMovie, and iDVD. Does it make sense?
WordPerfect advice, AirPort via USB, browser feedback, the TextEdit service in OS X, and more, Charles W. Moore, Miscellaneous Ramblings. Also more on PC cards, CD-RW in iBooks and Pismos, recycling old computers, and Bible software for the Mac.

2004

2006

iPod changes: Add video, subtract accessories, beware scratches, Adam Robert Guha, Apple Archive. The newest iPods add video and seem more delicate than earlier models. Also, cost cutting has eliminated the Dock, FireWire cable, and AC adapter.

PowerBook 1400: Dated and a bit slow, it's still very usable, Dan Knight, Mac Musings. Apple's PowerBook 1400 was considered small and quick in 1997. Today it can still be a great little field computer.
