Beware The SHOCKING iPod Earbuds

In an article posted by Macworld http://www.macworld.com/article/140674/2009/05/ipod_shocker.html they are reporting a new warning published by Apple about the dangers of being zapped by your earbuds attached to your iPod. Apparently this problem extends to ANY earbuds attached to ANY electronic device, but I don't think Apple really cares about those.

A Few Apple Faithful Acknowledge 25th Anniversary – Just Not Steve Jobs


The BBC has an interesting article about the 25th anniversary of the Macintosh. It was 25 years ago that Steve Jobs unveiled the ground breaking Macintosh computer. The first personal computer built from the ground up to allow the user to "point and click" instead of memorizing and typing hundreds or thousands of text commands just to make a copy or create a new document.
It is interesting to note that Apple's commander in chief, Steve Jobs, intentionally avoids reminiscing, preferring to keep focused on moving forward and bringing out new innovations.
I am still a big fan of the Mac. In fact, in my personal life, the only use I've found for Windows is playing video games that don't run on the Mac OS. So, I've gone as far as installing Windows 7 on my Intel iMac under Virtual Box as a test and I was pretty impressed. I think Microsoft is finally catching up to Apple with their operating system.
Hey, it only took them 25 years.
