For graphic designers, accurate color output is a must. While many home Mac users are fine with an inexpensive ink-jet printer, designers need a post-script printer, good color-management tools, and reliable printing. Enter the DesignJet 10ps, a true post-script six color 2400 x 1200 dpi, and is touted by Hp to be able to reproduce 90% of the pantone color library.

Not many people are aware of this, but the Federal Communications Commission (The FCC, for those of us who love our acronyms) has set a November 24 deadline for a rule that would allow you to keep your cell phone number, even if you switch cell phone companies. More, you will even be able to carry your land-based phone number over to a wireless company.

I-VOLUTION for 20GB iPod
Review

Cases, iPod, Review 0

I really do enjoy my 20GB iPod, and I really do want the best for it. When it comes to cases, I want something that feels as well built and sturdy as the iPod itself. I recently reviewed the FlipStand iPod case, and while I liked the plastic case / stand, it would be unfair for me to compare that unit with the Vaja case.

Have you noticed some Mac sites that really do nothing more than talk about how many hits they get? Is that as boring to you as it is to me? Or how long they have been publishing. Or how many “pages” they have on their site. Yawn…

Cases, iPod, Review 0

I love my iPod, but I am going crazy worrying about damaging the thing. Really, when you spend almost five hundred bucks for a little thing to play music on, you tend to be a bit over-protective. So one of the things I wanted to do was upgrade the 20GB iPod’s case, something better than the cheap sleeve Apple ships with the unit.

iPod, Review, Stand 0

At $15.95 the Pod Holder fills a niche for desktop users wanting to keep their iPod within easy reach while retaining the easy functionality of the iPod. I’ve noticed many of the cases on the market seem cheaply made and a little “clunky” in the real world use department.

Review, Speakers 0

My first impression upon seeing the 2100 series speaker from Altec Lansing was “sweet!” Yes, I like the look of these speakers, but looks are but one of the many important factors into making your decision on what speakers to buy.

Monsoon PlanarMedia 9
Review

Speakers 0

It has been a few years since I purchased my Monsoon MM1000 three-piece speaker system. In all that time, I have been more than happy with them. In fact, I always use them as the benchmark of good speakers. When I listen to other speakers, I always ask myself “are they better sounding than my Monsoon’s”. Happily, after two-plus years, the answer is still a resounding no.

I had heard a few Mac people talking about the PowerMate, and up until a month ago, I simply shrugged my shoulders and went on my merry way.
