October 23, 2009 @ 12:25 am

Jonatan Castro not only has a great website but he also has some incredible skills at designing computer icons. Believe it or not, the three images here are icons and not photos (or photos converted into icons) of the actual products represented. If you want to use these icons here for your computer, you can download them all for free at Jonatan’s website.

Media file preview in Snow Leopard

October 22, 2009 @ 9:20 pm

I honestly don’t recall this feature in Mac OS X Leopard, so I’m going to assume it’s new in Snow Leopard. But apparently you can hover over a media file in Snow Leopard and a play button will appear allowing you to preview the file’s contents (video/song) without having to open up a specific application. There you go, I learned something today.

Sporting MacBook Pro Sleeve from Hard Graft

If you aren’t quite satisfied with the Byrd & Belle felt laptop sleeve then maybe the Hard Graft Sporting MacBook Pro Sleeve will be a good alternative to take a look at. But beware of the nearly $120 USD price tag.

Will 3rd-parties make a Magic Mouse too?

October 21, 2009 @ 12:33 am

What is the likelihood that 3rd-party hardware manufacturers will make a mouse like the Magic Mouse with multi-touch technology? I’m only asking because I can’t see myself spending $70 for a mouse but I would LOVE a mouse with multi-touch features like this. Apple mice are notoriously bad and I have a feeling that this mouse, while nice looking and all, is actually a pain in the butt to use for long periods at a time (it just doesn’t look comfortable, but what do I know…).

Also, can we all agree that Magic Mouse is a stupid name?
