Happy Birthday Apple

No jokes on 1st April 1976 Apple was founded by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne (he stupidly sold out shortly after, that’s why we don’t hear about him).

Apple I

Their first machine, the Apple I, generated enough cash for them to formerly incorporate roughly a year later. Who would have thought that a couple of decades down the line it would evolve into this:

Apple iMac

We sure have come along way and it’s emphasised when we put it into perspective like this!


The Suicide Gun

Now now now, I’m not encouraging anyone kicks their own bucket over. But if you were going to, this would add a dash of convenience…

Suicide Gun

Yes, it’s the most tasteless one-shot weapon out there, I know…


High Def Dell

High Definition Dell Laptop

Dells latest machine comes with a 1366×768 screen. That means it can man-handle 720p video.

As you know, I’m a Mac whore, but I must say that this machine looks really sleek.


Let the Heavens Open Up (in Your Bathroom)

Introducing the Soothing Natural Rain Shower Head

Architecture, particularly in bathrooms, is evolving at a rapid pace. And with this evolution comes new unconventional (and generally better) products. Like the Dornbracht (say that like a German) natural rain shower head…

Aaaah… Natural rain, waterfalls, and water chutes offer alternatives to basic shower hardware and you can see from the picture that the Rain Sky E is amazing!

It’s got four different flow settings and lighting effects to accommodate your mood. Which one do you like?


Get Into the Hot Seat at Home

Meet the Gamin’ Station – the ultimate arcade simulator for your home. It works with the Xbox, Xbox 360, PS2 and PS3 and guarantees an adrenaline rush of note (or so they claim).

Gamin' Station

It’s got a Logitec wheel & surround sound system but the optional upgrades are the sweetest part: cup holders, cooling fans, heaters, internal and external lighting kits and color changes. It costs a steep $2,435 from Gamin’ Station.


The Ultimate Braai. Could it Be?

This luxurious outdoor cooking design has me salivating!

The Ultimate Braai

Just look at those two gas burners, those stainless steel curves and them exotic wood accents surface-treated with cooked linseed oil.

The Ultimate Barbecue

Did I mention it’s also got a lava rock grill an ollare stone that’s interchangeable with a cast iron plate, steel drawers mounted on automatic closing runners, a hinged stainless steel door to close the rubbish container and and water outlet.


iPhone OS 3.0 Software

Apple have released a preview of the most advanced mobile phone platform yet…

iPhone OS 3.0 Software

There has been huge confusion in that many think there is a new iPhone 3 on the way – that’s kak!

What this means is that the software on the iPhone is being upgraded to include new features, applications and enhancements of which the following is included: Spotlight Search, Voice Recorder, Editable Voice Memos, MMS, Cut & Paste, Landscape Mail, Shake to undo, Shake to shuffle iPod, Stocks News Feeds and much much more!

This is the reason I just love my iPhone because unlike conventional smartphones, the OS can be upgraded and built on essentially making it capable of doing ANYTHING! I’m give it 6 months until someone uses it to make coffee!


New Apple iPod Shuffle

Being the complete brand whore that I am, I just love Apple products. In the last few weeks, despite the absence of Steve Jobs, they have released several less significant products. This one however is slightly more revolutionary and popped up just a few days ago on apple.com

ipodshuffle

It’s the new Shuffle, has 4GB of memory and has it’s controls on the earphones cable. Using three little buttons and VoiceOver feedback you can navigate through your music and playlists. Pretty sweet!
