OS X 10.5.8 is out – Choppy performance is back
2 minutes Apple released Leopard 10.5.8 a few days back. The update went without a hitch on my MacBook Pro. The story on my Hackintosh isn’t so great.

iPhone 3GS – Week 4 and all is Great!
2 minutes Week 4, and the iPhone 3GS is chugging away like a champ. Having upgraded from a 1G 4GB iPhone to this beast, I am continually impressed by its speed, features, capabilities and the vast array of possibilities. Initially I resisted the temptation to Jailbreak my iPhone. I figured Jailbreak is just a step to get …
Windows 7 Build 7600 – RTM?
< 1 minute Leaked on the Interwebz last evening, build 7600 x64 is being touted as the Window 7 RTM (Release To Manufacturing and not Read The Man). I was of course eager to try this build out, and a couple of minutes later I took it for a test run on my Windows PC. The verdict is …
