Apple Netbook
No Such Thing as a $99 Netbook
ZD Net's Tom Steinert-Threlkeld
says:
"Oh, the heart goes aflutter with the idea that a netbook is coming
out from Apple.
"And, some hearts might just pop a valve with the idea that it'll
only cost $99.
"But, I'm not buying that this week's single line in the Boy Genius
Report does in fact signal the arrival of a $99 Apple netbook...."

Apple's Netbook Will Flop
The Street's
Scott Moritz says:
"Like a moth to a hot trend, Apple will fly into the netbook flame
and get burned.
"The company will unveil a 10-inch touch-screen tablet computer
sometime this year, say analysts. Not only does Apple want to showcase
its design prowess, the company desperately needs a new hit to
revitalize its computer line-up. Mac sales fell 16% from year-ago
levels last month.
"No question, the tablet will dazzle Apple fans who typically don't
think twice about paying upwards of $2,000 for the latest, greatest
Mac. But beyond the core fan base, Apple will discover what other PC
makers have known for a while: Consumers find big tablets hard to
swallow....
"There's a more eye-opening index that Apple investors should
probably heed. Nine of the 10 bestselling computers at Amazon as of
today were netbooks. And only one sold for more than $400."

Apple's Netbook Foray Will Flop
Apple Could Find Margins in Netbooks
The Street's
James Rogers says:
"[Apple] is rumored to have its eye on the netbook market, a move
that would signal a major change in the company's strategy.
"The iPhone maker has so far avoided mini-computers, preferring to
focus its energy on feature-rich, premium-priced products like the
MacBook.
"As Apple's results show, this strategy has worked....
"With a string of healthy product lines and $28 billion in cash,
does Apple really need to lower its margins with netbooks?
"At least one analyst, however, claims that this may not be the case
and argues that Apple must jump into netbooks.
"'I think it's crucial for them to continue to gain share,' Brian
Marshall, an analyst at Broadpoint AmTech, told TheStreet.com. 'The
success of Apple is in their continued share gains.'"

Apple's Tablet Will Flop? We'll Believe It When We
See It
Silicon
Alley Insider's Dan Frommer says:
"TheStreet.com's Scott Moritz pans the not-yet-announced Apple
tablet and gets the Apple blog army up in arms.
"Specifically, Moritz predicts that Apple's (AAPL) supposedly
forthcoming tablet computer 'will flop.'....
"We don't know any more than Moritz about Apple's supposed tablet
plans. It's possible he will be right. But Moritz forgets to mention a
few important things that are in Apple's favor....
"Apple products don't generally flop. They have a track record of
building popular products - and few duds."

7 Features of an Apple Netbook
Retrevo's
Andrew Eisner says:
"The rumors are flying on an Apple netbook, with some reliable
sources claiming confirmation of a forthcoming device, but that doesn't
stop us from fantasizing about what an Apple netbook might look like.
We are big netbook fans and think an Apple netbook is a great idea.
Apple watchers agree that a netbook from Apple is likely, pointing to
the acquisition of P.A. Semiconductor and the hiring of Mark
Papermaster from IBM as signs that Apple is planning a new mobile
device like a netbook."

along with a new OLED iPhone claim sources at LG in Korea.
"It's also believed that a new iPhone and iPod touch due later this
year will include an OLED screen made by LG who last year scored a

What I Learned from Having My Laptop Stolen
TidBITS' David
Blatner says:
"Someday, somewhere, somehow your computer will be gone. It will be
stolen, or the hard drive will self-destruct, or it will be hit by a
meteor. While the latter would at least provide you with an excellent
story, having your laptop stolen, as mine was recently, just plain
sucks. However, I did manage to learn a few things in the wake of
disaster, and wanted to take the opportunity to share them with you
here.
"Three things are lost with a computer's theft: hardware, data, and
privacy. I'll let others deal with the emotional aspects of loss, and
instead focus on the practical ones...."

MacBook Pros with X1600 Graphics Experiencing

MacFixIt
reports:
"MacBook Pro users with models that have the ATI Radeon X1600
graphics cards* have been reporting issues such as horizontal lines of
noise and other display artifacts. These issues seem primarily affect
early MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo machines....
"Apple's OS X update to 10.5.6 was supposed to fix issues related to
graphics on some MacBook Pro models (as described in its update
details). However, many users found that the graphics problems still
existed after installing the update....
"Currently there is no official fix or solution for this issue from
Apple. In some cases, Apple will issue a recall or automatic repair for
known issues across a certain serial code set or a particular model.
The issues surrounding the ATI Radeon X1600 graphics card have not
qualified for any such program to date and Apple is treating these
issues on a case-by-case basis...."

2-Finger Scrolling Not Working on New MacBooks
MacFixIt
reports:
"After migrating from a previous-generation Macintosh model to a
newer laptop that has some form of multitouch support in the trackpad,
several people have found the two-finger scrolling doesn't appear to
work....
"In most cases, various multifingered gestures seem to work just
fine, with only the two-finger scrolling not functioning properly.
"This problem seems to happen only when people are migrating, and
not with new hardware or when fresh system software is installed on the
newer computers, which indicates the problem is a software setting and
not a faulty trackpad...."

Dell's Adamo Looks Like a MacBook, but Isn't a

The

"I'm convinced the Adamo will never become an Apple-like cultural

"It's slim, sleek, and sexy. Dell's new Adamo notebook is thinner by
one-tenth of an inch than the fat end of a MacBook Air. It's a bit
pricier, but unlike the MacBook you can get mobile broadband built in.

update addresses the possibility of vertical lines or distorted
graphics on the display.
Products Affected
- MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2009)
There are two parts to this process:
- Installing the firmware update application onto your hard
drive.
- Using the firmware update application to update your graphics
subsystem firmware.
Before you begin, your MacBook Pro must be plugged into a working
power source, and the battery must be charged to at least 50%. Some USB
and FireWire devices may prevent firmware updates from installing
correctly. Disconnect nonessential devices for the best install
experience.
This update requires a Macintosh-formatted disk or partition and an
administrator password.
- Close any open applications.
- Download the
MacBook Pro Graphics Firmware Update 1.0. The download will place a
disk image that contains an installer into your default download
location.
Note: If you downloaded the update using Safari, Safari will
notify you that an application is contained in the image. Click OK to
continue.
- If "Open safe files after downloading" is selected in Safari
preferences, the disk image file will mount by itself. If that
preference is not enabled in Safari, double-click the disk image to
mount it.
- Double-click the graphics firmware update disk image to open
it.
- Double-click the MBPGraphicsFWUpdate1.0.pkg file.
- Read the introduction, then click Continue.
- After reading the licensing agreement, click Continue.
- To agree to its terms, click Agree.
- Click Install to install the update application to the folder path
/Applications/Utilities.
- You will be asked for your administrator password. Enter the
password and click OK.
- After the software successfully installs to your hard drive, an
Installation Completed Successfully message appears. Click Close to
start the updater application.
- Read the onscreen firmware update installation instructions, then
click Restart in the MacBook Pro Graphics Firmware Update window and
wait for your computer to restart. If asked to reenter your
administrator password, enter the password and click OK.
- After the restart, the firmware update starts automatically. A
status bar indicates the progress of the update.
Important: Do not interrupt the update. Do not press any keys on
the keyboard or hold down the trackpad or mouse button during the
update. The installation may take several minutes.
- Your computer will restart automatically when the update completes,
and a dialog will confirm your firmware is now up-to-date.
To determine if your MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2009) has
successfully installed this update, follow these steps:
- From the Apple menu choose About this Mac.
- Click More Info... to open the System Profiler.
- In the Hardware section of the System Profile, select
Graphics/Displays.
- If you have successfully applied the update, the gMux Version
should be 1.7.10.

Proporta Impact Protective Crystal Shell for
MacBook
PR: As a 13" Apple aluminum
MacBook owner I can affirm from daily observation that it is a thing of
beauty, which makes the thought of it getting scratched, scuffed, or
dented painful to contemplate. Something this nice deserves the very
best in protection to keep it that way, and Proporta's new Impact
Protective Crystal Case for the 13" unibody MacBook 13" is crafted to
the exact dimensions and specifications of the unibody, superimposing a
scratch resistant shell that adds almost no bulk or weight, but
provides a barrier layer of protection against knocks, impact damage,
and any other surprises that life on the road or even closer to home
might have in store.
Shatterproof and shock-absorbent, the Impact Protective Crystal Case
is tough, and incorporates clever cutouts that give you access to the
'Book's ports and controls, so that you under normal circumstances
should not have to remove your MacBook from the case. The Crystal Case
is available in three translucent colors - charcoal, red or clear, and
its stylish design means that your MacBook will still look sleek and
sharp and you may find its polycarbonate has a more congenial tactile
feel and offers a more secure grip (without skin oils and hand grime
soiling the computer's pristine surface) than the MacBook's bare
anodized aluminum.
Offering all round protection and a smart, stylish finish, using the
Proporta Impact Protective Crystal Case is an attractive way to keep
your MacBook safe and sound.
Key Features:
- Available in charcoal, red or clear.
- Shatterproof and shock absorbent.
- Scratch resistant.
- Cutouts give access to ports and controls.
- Secure closure prevents accidental opening.
The Impact Protective Crystal Case sells for $43.95.
