RUMOR: Apple office software seems
likely
01/05/2005 02:07 PMA small Macintosh software developer has renamed an application it
had been calling iWork, lending credence to rumors that Apple plans to
introduce office software of the same name.
IGG Software, which has marketed a time-billing application as iWork,
has changed the program's name to iBiz. The change, which is reflected
on the company's Web site, follows reports on rumor sites that Apple
plans to offer its own suite of word processing and presentation
software.
Enthusiast site ThinkSecret reported last week that a product from
Apple called iWork would include an updated version of Apple's
presentation software, Keynote, and a new word processing program,
which the site says will be called Pages. The site predicted Apple
would unveil the product at next week's Macworld Expo in San
Francisco. Such a program would be an interesting move for Apple,
which has for years kept its office software ambitions limited,
counting instead on Microsoft to produce a Mac version of Microsoft
Office.

Not a Rumor: Apple Upgrades Xserve G5
01/04/2005 11:02 AMWith all the pre-Expo rumoring I felt it necessary to preface this by
saying it comes directly from an Apple press release:
Apple today upgraded its Xserve 1U rack optimized server to deliver
dual 64-bit 2.3 GHz PowerPC G5 processors with over 35 gigaflops of
processing power per system and the industry's fastest front side 1U
server system bus, running at up to 1.15 GHz, providing up to 9.2 GBps
of bandwidth per processor and up to three 400GB drives, achieving a
groundbreaking 1.2TB of hot-plug storage. With configurations starting
at just $2,999, it is the ideal server for everything from file and
print serving to computational clusters.

Apple Slaps Rumor Site With Lawsuit
Apple Slaps Rumor Site With Lawsuit
01/06/2005 01:50 AMRumor site AppleInsider
got hit with a lawsuit
Wednesday, in the wake of two articles leaking information on what is to
be release
d in the Macworld Expo next week.
The suit, filed Tuesday in the Superior Court of Santa Clara
County, Calif., aims to identify who is leaking the information and to
get an injunction preventing further release of trade secrets.
However, in filing the suit, Apple identifies specific articles that
contain trade secrets, indicating that at least parts of those reports
are on the mark.
Two ways to look at this, I guess; one, that the rumors reported on
AI are dead on, and Apple is wanting to keep its secrets secret. Or
two, (thanks to a Gadgetopia reader/poster) is that the rumors are not true, but Apple is
trying to keep the rumors from raising the public's expectations for
upcoming releases, which ends up hurting Apple's stock prices.
Me? I think that Apple has some hot stuff planned for the Expo, and
the headless iMac is part of it. Why else would they announce a
newer/faster/no-more-expensive Xserve the week before?
I sure wouldn't want to be the guy at Apple leaking this stuff. And
maybe I'll think a little harder about posting the next Apple rumor I
hear about.

08/13/2004 12:42 PM
Apple has apparently filed
for a design trademark on a handheld computer resembling an iBook
without the keyboard. From The Register:
"Hints that Apple might be working on such a product
emerged in 2003 when a source close to Taiwanese contract manufacturer
Quanta claimed that the company had been hired by Apple to build what
was dubbed a 'wireless display...
The device is certainly a
logical extension of what it's been doing with iTunes and AirPort
Express. While its mini wireless access point is good for streaming
audio from a host Mac to a hi-fi, it lacks a local control unit. It's
tempting to view this latest design filing as the basis for just such
a device.'"

With the launch of the new Averatec C3500 Tablet PC hitting the

believe that Averatec stands to do quite well with this model.
Interestingly enough, it does seem to bear a striking resemblance to
their notebook models….

And while we're on the
laptop tip, Averatec's new Tablet PC is coming out, the C3500
Convertible Notebook. It looks pretty hot for the price, too, with a
decent speed AMD Athlon XP-M chip, 12.1-inch screen, and 802.11g for
"as low as" $1,350 (although not sub-$1,000 quite yet). Except for the
limitations convertible screens put on laptop form factors, there's no
reason why all notebooks shouldn't be adding Tablet capabilities in
the future for not much more money. Clearly, that's starting to
happen. Plus, when you get angry at a Tablet PC you can punch the
screen and watch it comically spin around until it breaks and you are
fired. (Thanks, Kristian!)

"Computer scientists from the University of Bath have written a
software which transforms your ordinary photographs and movies into cubist works of
art and animation reminiscent of Picasso. They trained their
software to identify important elements of a face, such as a nose, eye
or mouth, until the computer learned how to recognize them on its own.
This was achieved by giving the software a kind of 'aesthetic sense.'
Then, by "using photographs of a subject taken from multiple points of
view, the software automatically picks out important areas within the
image, which are cut out as chunks. The chunks are statistically
shuffled and a few of them randomly selected and distorted into a
'cubist' composition ready for digital painting." The software is not
yet publicly available, but software and animation companies have
expressed interest. My blog
contains additional references and images."

you can use the packaged tool, but now that you understand how it was
