Apple Updates Macbook/Pro Line
27 Feb 2008 No CommentsAs we reported a few weeks ago, Apple today updated its Macbook and MBP lines. Macbook now tops at 2.4GHz while the MBP comes with 2.4 and a 256MB Graphic card as a standard and tops at 2.6Ghz with 512MB Graphic card. Also a nice addition to the MBP is the multi-touch.
The Apple remote is now no longer included in the package and considered an accessory which can be bought for $19, also no multi-touch for the Macbook – bummer.
B-2 Bomber Crashes, $1.2Billion Turns To Dust
25 Feb 2008 2 CommentsAn American B-2 bomber crashed yesterday for "unknown reasons", bringing the fleet of 21 to 20. Both pilots ejected safely. The B-2 bomber is the coolest looking bomber out there, and each one of those babies cost a whooping $1.2bn(ouch), so they are not cheap. So I guess there are people who are really crying for the loss of this aircraft.

Firefox Reaches 500,000,000 Downloads
22 Feb 2008 No CommentsYesterday Firefox hit the 500,000,000 (that’s five hundred million) downloads.
From the website:
" Firefox just reached 500,000,000 downloads. This is an absolutely phenomenal milestone for Firefox. It is sort of hard to imagine what that number means. For some perspective, that’s roughly the audience size of 10,000 Rome Colosseums combined. It would be the weight, in kilograms, of 8,500 Boeing 747 airplanes. In dollars, for $500 million you and 15 of your friends can fly to the International Space Station."
Due to this wonderful occasion I’ll be posting the top 10 Firefox add-ons.
