Steve Jobs makes me tingle

Tuesday January 15, 2008

Categories: Popular Culture

He is doing his keynote at MacWorld... I can't watch it live but am following it at Macrumors.com.

Four million iPhones have already sold. They are introducing new software for the iPhone - that includes a GPS-like map locator, the ability to customize the home screen and such.

They have introduced a new combination Wifi base station/hard drive to back up all your information - no more cables to hard drives... all wireless now....

...there will be more in the moments ahead... nothing earth shattering... nothing that won't be forgotten months from now... but still, for us Mac junkies (cultists?), mucho fun.

Is it bad that this makes me tingle?

No, there is something about Apple - the beauty of it all - who will be first to get one of those skinny little laptops? Not me. I love my IMac - such fun for a left handed, rather ADD sort of person who thinks about theology a lot. I understand we are the Apple base constituency. I'm being tempted toward an IPhone, but darn, I can barely see the little numbers on my little Sprint phone - perhaps an IPhone for seniors can be next year's product.
Like the idea of a wireless hard drive - I never can figure out where cords go anyway. Love wireless stuff.
Doug, thanks for warning me about Leopard. Apple gave me the software when they replaced my computer, but I never loaded it. Has it improved? I think I'm fine with the old version.

Thinker, as far as I can tell, the problem is with MacBooks only but it cuts out from input for sometimes a minute or three without warning and pretty often. I'm sure they'll fix it but the first patch meant to fix it didn't, so I'd wait.

Dear Dave: what does your Mac do that my Commodore 64 doesn't?

Just wondering...

Sincerely,

Not Tingling

I don't know - My Commodore 64 has made a lovely planter.
