Mac OS X Tiger to Ship on April 29

Mac OS X Tiger to Ship on April 29 04/12/2005 10:09 AM
Apple has announced the date when it's new version of OS X - Tiger, v10.4 - will go on sale. Friday, April 29, at 6pm is the magic time - $129 or £89, the price. As Neowin has previously reported, among the new features will be an updated Mail client and iCal app. Apple also says it will include the new version 7 of Quicktime, and native 64-bit application support. Preorders are now being accepted.

Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO, said: "Mac OS X Tiger is the most innovative and secure desktop operating system ever created. Tiger's groundbreaking new features like Spotlight and Dashboard will change the way people use their computers, and drive our competitors nuts trying to copy them."

Spotlight is Apple's new search system, which it touts as being a "new, lightning-fast way for users to find virtually anything stored on their Mac". Dashboard, meanwhile, allows users to put widgets on their desktop for anything from the weather to tracking flights. Also new, an updated iChat, Automator - which can make repetitive tasks easier - and RSS reader support in the Safari browser.

In other news, the BBC reports that a group of US newspapers, along with the AP news agency, are to back bloggers being sued by Apple for leaking details of the new features. A court had ruled they should be forced to reveal the sources of the information - Dave Tomlin, assistant general counsel for AP, said the case had potential implications journalists of all kinds. "For us, this case is about whether the First Amendment protects journalists from being turned into informants for the government, the courts or anybody else who wants to use them that way," Mr Tomlin said.

JamPlug Guitar Amp

JamPlug Guitar Amp 08/16/2004 08:06 AM

DVForge's new JamPlug, an in-line (well, I guess most audio equipment is inline, but bear with me) amplifier that is billing itself as the "World's Smallest Guitar Amp," and for once a world's-smallest claim is probably on the money. The $60 piece runs on a single AAA battery and has a pair of strangely-familiar matching white headphones. The thumb wheel controls volume, and it even can be overdriven into some quality of distortion, which probably isn't the best sounding fuzz or crunch or whatever in the world, but if it can free the legion of pimply guitar noodlers from the curse that is the Rockman Metal Ace, then the amateur rock world will surely be a better place.

Won't ship until October, but you can get on the list now to be notified.

Microsoft has responded to complaints that Windows XP sometimes has problems connecting to Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, the response is: "Tough. Wait it out."

"This behavior is expected," says a terse article in Microsoft's Knowledge Base. "You must wait up to three minutes for the network configuration to complete." There's no fix, no patch, no workaround. "The wireless network card driver may not respond immediately when Windows XP initializes the network components and associates the wireless network card driver," says the article. "When this behavior occurs, Windows XP appears to stop responding."
