Apple Updates

IE on Mac is dead

What’s happening at Apple? What’s up with iPod? Here are a few items – not necessarily latest, but worth noting!

  • IE on the Mac is dead. Microsoft will not port IE7 to Mac. They suggest using Safari instead.
  • Mac-Intel’s – Macintosh computers using Intel processors – may debut very soon. A lot of announcements and demonstrations may happen at the upcoming MacWorld expo.
  • iPod generation 5 is here! It’s slimmer, available in black and white colors, plays video and is cost effective. But may be the scroll wheel quality has gone cheap!
  • There are big plans to release products around the iPod line. An iPod Boombox is coming.
  • The iPod clones keep coming! Bottom parts of many things are more interesting then the tops; thinking this, somebody came up with an mp3 player that’s the bottom of an iPod!
  • You can now even get iPod underwear! The iBoxers come in trendy colors and a pocket to keep your iPod!
  • Apple is expecting major growth in computer shipments in the next quarter! The iPod halo effect is helping them.
  • Belkin said more and more people are buying accessories with their iPods now. In the early days, only one person in a 15 would buy an iPod accessory. Now almost everyone does.
  • For the people who didn’t know this, Apple has been keeping a port for Intel processors for its major softwares (including OS) for about five years now. Every version was ported to x86 architecture.

Let’s see what’s coming next from Cupertino.
