A Local Mac Genius

The very helpful staff at the local Apple store seem to have fixed my iPhone. The problem was that it wasn't saving new photos. But I use it more as a camera and an internet device than anything else, so this was very important to me. I was so...

It would no longer start up. Apparently it needed a new hard drive. Sadly, the data on the old one could not be recovered. I asked the owner if he also works on Macs, on Apple ...

my iPhone with added buttons

I watched the Apple announcements today with great interest. But in a way it is a relief that there is nothing I really have to go out and buy (which the iPhone was). Considering I bought a new computer a couple weeks ago, that really is a relie...

]]> Apple tv upgrade? tag:vox.com,2008-01-08:asset-6a00e398c66b16000300e398cffd770001 2008-01-08T02:24:05Z 2008-01-08T09:31:50Z DRB http://drb2008.vox.com/?_c=feed-atom It seems like renting or distributing movies and tv shows over the internet is the coming next big thing. Doesn't it have to be that Apple will announce new initiatives in that area soon? I have an Apple tv, and use it some--but mostly to view ...

Apple stock in 2007

One nice thing this past year was watching my Apple stock's value rise. It started 2007 at around $80 a share, and closed it out at nearly $200. That is, it way more than doubled. It is the only investment made chiefly on my own say-so, and th...

iPhone

I am experimenting with a TypePad blog too, largely because it is optimized for an iPhone. (But there you have to pay). I wish that Vox was set up similarly! Apparently it is for some other web phones, but not for the iPhone. I find that very...

my new Mac Mini

This wasn't exactly a Christmas present, not really, since I paid most of the cost. But my son got it at the store--and said that the crowd at the Apple store was bigger than at any other place he shopped today. And he paid for part of it also....
