- Everyone’s reviewing the Apple TV. Why is is it that Apple can come out with a more limited version of something that Slingbox invented a couple of years ago, yet it still makes all the news feeds as tho it were a movie of Britney shaving? I just don’t get it. But at least this video actually breaks open the gadget’s case and takes the stupid thing apart. (Source: Engadget)
- Microsoft stuffs Messenger into new Hotmail. Oh wait, now it’s called Windows Live Hotmail…or something like that. But now it’ll also include an integrated instance of Messenger. That way you can decide to message someone…before you email them?! (Source: PC Mag)
- Google kills the Google-phone. So one exec from Portugal says they are going to do it; now another exec in the Far East says they’re definitely not doing it. Here’s another quote from a US tech journalist whose name begins with ‘O’: I don’t give a shit whether you do it or not, so please just shut up about it. (Source: CPU Magazine)
- NSA hooks up with Apple to write security guide for OS X. Title kinda says it all. Seems there are enough Macs in government service that the NSA felt the need to write some guidelines on how to properly secure OS X. Get the link here. (Source: ZDNet)
- Intel says its education PC already shipping. Intel made a surprise announcement, saying that its Classmate PC is already shipping into emerging markets, notably Mexico and Brazil. Naturally, they’re taking credit for being the first to do this, tho they won’t say how many units have shipped. Hey, considering the state of education right here at home…how about donating a few of those stateside, huh Intel? (Source: Ars Technica)
