Powerbook G5 Next Tuesday?

Powerbook G5 Next Tuesday? 06/06/2005 12:08 AM

There is every reason in the world that this could be fake, but it won't hurt to go ahead and put those Powerbooks on eBay. Dated June 7th, this press release talks about 'Powerbook G5' models, with faster processors (duh) and better screens, still inside an aluminum case. We'll reproduce the text after the jump, but you can look at the 'Google Cache' on this guy's website for signs it's a spoof. (Thanks, Art!)

Update: So yeah, not likely. Lots of you have pointed out good reasons why this isn't legit, but I've copied the most comprehensive from reader 'John' below the press release after the jump.

Apple Announces PowerBook G5 for August Availibility
The Highly Anticipitated G5 Portables are Here, Featuring Low-power G5 Processors and HD Screens Across the Line

Apple ignited the personal computer revolution in the 1970s with the Apple II and reinvented the personal computer in the 1980s with the Macintosh. Today, Apple continues to lead the industry in innovation with its award-winning desktop and notebook computers, OS X operating system, and iLife and professional applications. Apple is also spearheading the digital music revolution with its iPod portable music players and iTunes online music store.

The 'Google Cache' [Mac]

I don't buy that "cache" announcing the G5 PowerBook for a second. The most convincing error for me is that the first sentence incorrectly uses "it's", but you might be more convinced by the following: - Google cache pages use valid URLs, not "http://64.233.167.104.search.q[...]" - The typography and CSS IDs are completely different from current Apple PR. - The descriptive paragraph lacks an "About Apple" heading.

Compared to the last PowerBook press release, which is here:
http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2005/jan/31powerbook.html

...we learn:
- The alleged release's URL style is different.
- The alleged release's press contacts are different.
- The trademark line on the alleged release:
"Apple, the Apple logo, Mac, Mac OS, Macintosh, iTunes and iPod are trademarks of Apple...."
versus the legit PowerBook release:
"Apple, the Apple logo, Macintosh, Mac, Mac OS, PowerBook, SuperDrive, AirPort, iLife, iTunes, iPod, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, GarageBand, Safari, Sherlock, QuickTime, iCal, Apple Store and FireWire are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Apple..."

Apple neglecting to note that the word "PowerBook" is trademarked in a PowerBook press release? Not bloody likely!

We walked along Michigan and came upon the Millennium Park, due to open on Friday. We couldn't get a good enough view of the new Gehry concert shell, which looked twisty and interesting, but the site is interrupted by large photos of families from around the world, with just a...

To do Tuesday night in LA: RES screening 07/12/2004 05:49 PM
OK, look -- even if this description of tomorrow night's monthly RES screening in Hollywood doesn't get you worked up, consider this: it's followed by an afterparty featuring an as-yet-unannounced secret Silverlake-based DJ duo who CONVERTED AN ICE CREAM TRUCK INTO A MOBILE DUB REGGAE SOUNDSYSTEM. That is the wickedest most baddassed thing I've ever heard of in my life at least the last three hours. Seriously, the program looks great too, and features:

special guest Geoff McFetridge who will share a retrospective of his video work including his music videos for the Avalanches, Simian, Plaid and his quirky spots for Jinro, X-Games, Burton and HP. The program will also include new short films from Suk & Koch, Brett Simon and Cheryl Dunn who will present the world premiere of Come Mute. Also screening: breaking new music videos for Placebo, Mr. Lif, Armand Van Helden, Supergrass, Los Amigos Invisibles, Colder and Floria Sigismondi's latest for the Cure.

Link to screening info, and listen to an archived live set from the ice-cream rockaz who shall not be named right here.

Tuesday is INDUCE call-in day

Tuesday is INDUCE call-in day 09/14/2004 03:48 AM
Xeni Jardin: As my colleague Cory blogged last week, Tuesday September 14 is "Save Betamax National Call-in Day."

Why Save Betamax? The short version: We're organizing a call-in day to Congress on September 14 to oppose new legislation that would undermine the Betamax decision (INDUCE Act). Here's why: The Betamax VCR died more than 15 years ago, but the Supreme Court decision that made the Betamax and all other VCRs legal lived on. In Sony vs. Universal (known as the Betamax decision) the Court ruled that because VCRs have legitimate uses, the technology is legal—even if some people use it to copy movies. Of course, the movie industry was lucky it lost the case against VCRs, because home video soon became Hollywood's largest source of revenue. And the freedom to use and develop new technology that was protected by the Betamax decision set the stage for the incredible growth in computer technology we've seen in the last few decades.

Some Email 12/17/2003 08:22 PM
A new study has found that Tuesday is the day most people send email, but it appears that readers lag by a day, and don't open the emails until Wednesday. I just checked my own stats, and indeed, I do get more emails on Tuesday, but just slightly above Wednesday and Thursday. Weekends, as you might expect don't see much email traffic. One good thing from the report is that companies are realizing that people don't unsubscribe from emails - they just delete them. Thus, many marketers are apparently purging those who don't open their emails, or (wow!) asking people to re-opt-in.

The Black and White about Grey Tuesday

The Black and White about Grey Tuesday 03/06/2004 01:51 AM
The Grey Album is a remix of Jay-Z's Black Album and the Beatles' White Album by DJ Danger Mouse. It is a remix without permission. In our legal system, permission is required to remix others' art (except if the work is in the public domain, and of course, nothing enters the public domain anymore). The Grey Album is therefore illegal art. Today is Grey Tuesday -- a day set by many to protest the war waged on the Grey Album. Sites across the net are posting the Grey Album. Go here to see scads of sites engaging in this act of disobedience. Lawyers representing EMI have already started warning the sites about the legal liability they face. Under American law, you don't need permission to make a cover album. That freedom has been assured since 1909 when Congress granted creators a compulsory right to remake music, so long as a small fee was paid. The record companies have fought hard to defend that compulsory right. As a 1967 Congressional report put it:

The record producers argued vigorously that the compulsory license system must be retained. They asserted that the record industry is a half-billion-dollar business of great economic importance in the United States and throughout the world; records today are the principal means of disseminating music, and this creates special problems, since performers need unhampered access to musical material on nondiscriminatory terms. Historically, the record producers pointed out, there were no recording rights before 1909 and the 1909 statute adopted the compulsory license as a deliberate anti-monopoly condition on the grant of these rights. They argue that the result has been an outpouring of recorded music, with the public being given lower prices, improved quality, and a greater choice.

Copyright Law Revision, Committee on the Judiciary, 90th Cong. 1st, Sess., Rep. No. 83 66 (March 8, 1967) (emphasis added). But the cover right does not cover a remix. So DJ Danger Mouse must, under the law, ask permission before he can practice his art. Some artists think this is fair. Some don't like the idea of their work used without permission. What if Disney remixed DJ Danger Mouse into a re-release of Mickey-jailed-since-1928-Mouse, without asking or paying first? And indeed, it is just this defense that the record companies offer first: we're just enforcing the wish of the copyright owners. This is not, they say, a record company cartel. This is about the rights of artists. But that defense would be more credible if the record companies were to allow artists the choice to set their content free for remix at least. We've been working with Gilberto Gil to push a sampling license, under which artists could set their music free for dangerous mice and others to remix. But we've yet to find a record company that will allow their artists this freedom. Indeed, the legal department at Vivendi purported to ban us from "approaching" "their" artists. Should the law give DJ Danger Mouse the right to remix without permission? I think so, though I understand how others find the matter a bit more grey. Should the law give DJ Danger Mouse a compulsory right to remix? That is, the right, conditioned upon his paying a small fee per sale? Again, I think so, and again, you might find this a bit less grey. But should the record companies give artists the right to choose to free their content so that artists like DJ Danger Mouse could remix without seeking permission first? There is nothing grey about that question. It is absolutely black and white. Artists should at least have the right to free their content to mash or remix. And record companies absolutely should not stand in the way of at least that. After doing so much to destroy their reputation in the eyes of most consumers and artists, signaling at least this would be a useful first step towards showing that the record companies care about "their" artists first.
