Superlatives have attached themselves to Jobs since he was a young man. Now that he's 54, merely listing his achievements is sufficient explanation of why he's Fortune's CEO of the Decade (though the superlatives continue).

The more I think and learn about the curious pricing of the 27" iMac...

It has an IPS panel. IPS is the best and most expensive LCD type, giving the best viewing angle and the least color- and brightness-shifting as the angle increases in any direction. Nearly every panel on the market, including every laptop panel, is the cheap TN type.

Daring Fireball: Apple Netbook Claim Chowder

At this point, I'm going to stop asking when Apple will acknowledge these dark days we live in because I think the answer is never. Maybe Apple should just be a bull market company.

New Apple iMac is Jaw-Dropping Yet Incomplete

Yes, there are other 27-inch displays out there, but I've yet to see one with the 2560x1440 resolution that Apple is offering. This approaches the resolution of 30-inch monitors like the Dell UltraSharp 3007WFP-HC, which lists for $1300 and has a resolution of 2560x1600.

Windows Mobile 6.5 Review: There's No Excuse For This

I really didn't want to beat up on WinMo here, because at this point it just feels tired. But man, come on Microsoft, you're giving me no choice. Windows Mobile 6.5 isn't just a letdown—it barely seems done.

Trying to Shake Off an Old Image - Review of Zune HD

Seeded on Wed Sep 16, 2009 7:13 PM EDT (The New York Times)

The Web browser, and its accompanying on-screen keyboard, is new to the Zune. When you're in an Internet hot spot, you can call up Web sites, zoom in to magnify text, and so on, just as on the iPod Touch or iPhone.

Regardless of how you're trying to navigate, the on-screen keyboard seems to require more finger accuracy than the fault-tolerant keyboard on the iPhone (probably because of the smaller screen). The back button is hard to hit--I kept selecting the favorites menu by mistake.

I am still trying to determine exactly which galaxy

gecko

actually comes from, I think I am getting close, however it is a world that is far advanced from ours as somehow no matter what subject within nanoseconds, he is able to produce the correct answer with far better results then Wiki or Google could even hope for. So I don't get it. I has got to be something to do with running Vista under Parallels Desktop 3.0 with a one button mouse and running Fedora 9 and driving his new "BlueTDI" Jetta Diesel ?
Yikes..Whatever it is, I sure have learned alot !
Thanks for being a friend gecko.

tcervo,

hey, i saw your post on another page about alpine and ipod...just wondering which alpine you have. i had the 9855 until a week ago, which was S-L-O-W and had that stupid glidetouch. I just got the 9857 which is significantly improved, even though the deck has less features overall.

thanks
