Macworld and the Girls Gone Geek Academy
I’ve been a designer/art director for over 20 years. Having worked in more then a few advertising agencies and publishing companies, I think I know my way around the design world a bit. That said I was rather surprised at the quality of the graphic design templates offered at StockLayouts.com.
Today’s portable Macs are as fully featured and functional as any desktop machine – in fact, parts of the Mac desktop line-up have embraced the design and implementation of the portable systems – the Mac Mini is a MacBook in a desktop case! Accordingly, many people have a MacBook or a MacBook Pro as their only Mac. Enter the Bookendz Docking Station for 13†MacBook!
Apple’s latest iPod Nano is a true thing of beauty – more so than we expected when we first saw pictures of the fat little chap. To hold one in the hand is in my mind to experience a near-perfect form factor, coupled with stylish Apple design. However, their very desirability means that we often immediately compromise the form factor by encasing it in rubber and plastic!
One of the things I rapidly grew to love about the Mac platform when I came to it from Windows was the vibrant software coding scene. Windows has a lot of shareware, but much of it is poorly written, poorly maintained and written in such a way that it all looks the same.
Adobe Photoshop is a standard for image editing. It has a lot of great tools for making a good picture great, or even a lousy picture a lot better. However, there are times when the tools in Photoshop are not enough, or are not fast enough. Image Doctor 2 by Allen Skin Software aims to help with those times when you need more than Photoshop can offer.
I use a G4 PPC MDD 867 dual with 1.5 gigs of ram…and no iSight camera. I wanted one but figured that the price would come down fairly quick but the next thing I knew, gone! So there I’ve been, looking at the assortment of cameras that Window’s folks have but never seeing Mac compatible on the box. I know, I know, I could buy one and then purchase IOXperts Webcam Driver for Mac OS X but I thought that was just a bit much paying for a Windows webcam and then having to purchase a driver to let me use it.

This book is billed as. “The book that should have been in the box.†Adobe would have needed a pretty large box to include this 995-page book that is jam packed with tips and tricks as well as over 140 pages of step-by-step tutorials.

A great racing game on the Macintosh? Am I dreaming? No, and thanks to EA, those with a Need, a Need For Speed, can now get it on an Intel Macintosh.
The Aego-M’s are marketed as an iPod speaker system, but to think of it as just that is to sell its capabilities short, in my opinion. They will well serve any audio source, be it an MP3 player, computer or a more conventional music source such as a CD player.
Are you looking for an inexpensive, traditional style, animation program for you? Are your kids interested in creating animated cartoons? Are you a teacher looking for a great animation program for your class? If so, Flip Boom, by Toon Boom Animation, Inc is worth looking into.

Typically, external hard disk drives are not something you simply carry with you. And Flash drives, while small in size, never have enough capacity or are fast enough for more complex jobs. LaCie has a very cool alternative to this problem….
