Wii Laptop!

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

From engadget:

It’s the Wii laptop! We spent the last few weeks (including much time spent over the holidays evading relatives) slaving over this bad boy and finally it’s complete. Check out the features:

* 16:9 widescreen LCD, 7-inch diagonal.
* Stereo sound
* Gamecube controller port
* Built-in short range Sensor Bar
* Ports for using original Sensor Bar and A/V output jacks (for use on external display)
* Built-in power supply and compartment for power cord
* Dimensions: 8.5 x 7.7 x 2-inches

Starting next Tuesday we’ll be doing a multi-part How-To with detailed instructions for building your own Wii Laptop, as well as loads of photos of the construction process. But for now check out the gallery for more detailed photos of the unit, and click on to see some video of the Wii laptop in action.

Apple’s Mac OS X Snow Leopard Review

Friday, October 30th, 2009

http://twitter.com/chrispirillo – I’m sure you’re still laughing at my impression of a Snow Leopard, in honor of the newest release of Mac OS X. The upgrade is only $30.00, which is an excellent price. You should go out and get it right away, but I’m not sure if you’re ready to install it just yet. http://chris.pirillo.com – http://geeks.pirillo.com

Beige G3 Power Mac running OS X 10.5 Leopard!

Monday, October 12th, 2009

(make sure “HQ” (high quality) beneath the video is selected (highlighted in red) for best results)

For many months after the release of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, everyone thought that installing it on any Mac older than a G4 Sawtooth (the first AGP tower, still far below Apple’s official specification of an 867 MHz G4) was impossible. But finally, it has been done, and here you can see a Beige Power Macintosh G3 booting a fresh installation of Leopard (the retail build of course) for the first time. This is a Mac that originally came with Mac OS 8.0 back in 1997 (mine’s a late ‘98 model, from when the Pentium III was yet to be launched and Windows 98 had just come on the scene…) and Apple dropped OS support after 10.2.8 Jaguar for these OldWorld Macs without built-in USB or FireWire, but today we prove that the Beige G3 still has many many years of life ahead of it as it runs today’s latest and greatest, Mac OS X Leopard. As Apple say, “Add a new Mac to your Mac” with Leopard! :-) It actually runs pretty well for such an old machine too!

(note that if you want to to this with your own Beige G3 you will need a G4 upgrade CPU for it, as Leopard was compiled by Apple without G3 support to try and cut off these awesome old machines and make Leopard an impossibility on them)

Specs:

Sonnet Encore 1 GHz G4 processor
768 MB Ram
ATI Radeon Mac Edition 32 MB graphics card
160 GB 7,200 RPM hard drive
DVD-RW drive
USB card
100baseT ethernet card
Apple Studio Display 15″ LCD screen
Apple Keyboard and Apple Pro Mouse (USB)
