Herbert searched and looked all over the internet in the past few days and was rewarded today. He found out that it’s now official that all Austrian students on every Austrian University and University of Applied Science (= FH) can buy their strongly needed Mac stuff at the onCampus store here.
That means we can now all enjoy the benefit of the very good deals that they offer 🙂
…and did I mention that the new Rise Against album totally kicks ass *g*
Am I the only one that thinks that the slogan for the newest Apple MacBooks is sounding really ridiculous?
Introducing the superfast, blogging, podcasting, do-everything-out-of-the-box MacBook.
In German it’s even far worth in my opinion:
Hier ist das superschnelle, Blog- und Podcasting f?hige, sofort startklare MacBook.
To me that sounds like: “Hey, we forgot something! The presentation is in two minutes, we still need a slogan – just write some random stuff underneath it that includes the latest buzzwords!”
I mean just the “do-everything-out-of-the-box MacBook” thats not even a word.
C’mon Apple, you can do better than that!
They made it! Finally a small, powerfull, modern and BLACK notebook from Apple 🙂
So where do I quickly get the money from now, to replace my current iBook G4 with one of those? Any ideas?
After nearly a year, and a bunch of new developers, the Mac OS X passive wireless stumbler KisMac has produced another stable release. It now includes passive mode stumbling on AirPort Extreme hardware, is a Universal binary for the benefit of people with Intel Macs, does Google Earth exporting, has many bugs fixed and much much more…
On my iBook passive monitoring mode works out of the box – perfect 🙂
I discovered that in addition to the open, unprotected network named “Netgear” in my neighborhood, there is also an unprotected WLAN which hides it’s SSID. Whatever the advantage of hiding SSID but not encrypting a WLAN is…
For a long time Mac OS X was the one platform left out when it comes to developing MIDlets. There where soultions from SUN for Windows, Linux & obviously Solaris. There was no official build for the amazing NetBeans Mobility Pack for the Mac … well, there still isn’t one but I looked around a bit in the gathered knowledge of mankind which is the WWW and found the blog of Lukas Hasik. He has a fairly well written documentation of how to achieve a working development environment on Mac OS X.
In this post I’d like to summarize the nessecary steps as well as make a few annotations where I ran into difficulties while following the described steps.
