The designers at Mintpass made these calculators inspired Apple and Windows calculator applications. I wonder what happens when you hit the close button on them?
Apple products are so great that fans make ads for them. Here's a clever response to Verizon's scary “Droid Does” ad. Gotcha Media
This poor apple just can't decide what color it wants to be. Good luck, little guy. People might not understand you, but you've got to be true to who you are, neither all red nor all green.
Thieves enact the dark fantasy of every Apple fan, snapping up laptops, Shop Till You Drop-style. Skip ahead to :55 if you'd like to bypass the Action News anchor's long-winded set up.

A “smaller, faster and more refined” operating system for Mac.

What do a 12.1” touchscreen, Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2 gigabytes of RAM, a 160 GB hard drive, and parts of an old MacBook put together bring you? A very impressive Apple tablet mockup. It's called iTab Mini, and, of course, it has nothing to do with Apple.

Snow Leopard: it's the next iteration of Apple's Mac OS X, and it's also a beast that hunts cute little snow bunnies (no, not young women who spend a great deal of time skiing) and *gasp* eats them.

The Apple store disappeared briefly this morning, only to come back and bring us Mac OS X 10.6, or Snow Leopard. The price is $29.00, and $9.95 for the upgrade. It's a bit of an early launch, as Snow Leopard will be available on August 28th; originally, it was due to be out in September.
YouTube user nicholifavs records vlogs of himself, mostly lip-synching and dancing to pop songs, exclusively from the Apple Store on 5th ave in NYC. I think I'm going to go down there later and ask him to be my best friend. [via]

Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google, resigned from Apple's Board of directors today. The official statement sites the conflict of interest created by Google entering several of Apple's “core markets”, i.e. iphone/android and chrome/safari.
A rendering of what Apple's home page may have looked like sixteen years ago, had the Internet been a thing. The future looked so cool in 1983, all clunk and buttons and knobs. Bring back the Epcot Aesthetic!
Celebrity Buzz So there was just cause for all those Steve Jobs sickness/death rumors that were flying around the interwebs a few months ago. Turns out, the Apple CEO did need a new liver and recently got one. Could this also be a promo for a new product? Need a liver transplant? There's an app for that.

Apple is scheduled to release its new iPhone 3.0 software today. According to Gizmodo the new phone OS software should propagate through iTunes around 12 PM Eastern/ 9 AM PST. [UPDATE] 6 pm GMT= 1 PM EST = 10 AM PST
Tech Buzz Apple has announced their new iPhone, dubbed the “3GS.”
1980 was a confusing time for Apple, as you'll see in this classic magazine ad. Don't bite the forbidden fruit, Adam! Somewhere off set, Eve lies tangled in a sexy web of Steve Jobs' dreams.
Tech Buzz There's a rumor going around that Apple is in talks to buy Twitter for $700 million. None of the rumor-mongers has a compelling reason why Apple would do this, other than Twitter is cool, so definitely take this with a grain of salt. Unless it turns out to be true! In which case you heard it here first.
Plush Jobs may be very smart, but he's also super cuddly. For only $27.99, you can have your very own Plush Jobs — who will definitely tell you all the secrets about the next iPod.
No one knows what this is or where it came from, but they're calling it the iBoy. Someone took this shot while in Japan, and now geeks around the world are left chanting want want want want…

Because you have none, Self Control is a little app that will block out the things that distract you. Set it to block your access to email, Facebook, GoldenGirls.com, whatever, for a specific length of time. Once it's running, there's no way to turn it off, so tread carefully. Dead simple (but for Mac OS X users only, sorry).
