Front Row 1.0 Reviewed with Video Demo from Technology Posts
October 28, 2005
When Apple released Front Row 1.0 two weeks ago, it was almost a side note in Steve’s address.  Much more time was dedicated to the new iPod and the new iMac.  But it was Front Row that appears to have captured the attention of the Mac community.

For the unfamiliar, Front Row is Apple’s first foray into the home media center market.  While not a full fledged PVR (personal video recorder), Front Row does add a great deal...

Yahoo! Podcasts Now in Beta from Technology Posts
October 12, 2005
Yahoo.com has released a new Podcasting index that is currently in beta.  It works with the Mac, or Windows and is even capable of using iTunes as the Podcast client.

So why use Yahoo when this is already built into iTunes 5?  That was my first question too.  One reason might be that iTunes, though being the first to do a good job of integrating the Podcast aggregator into a Podcast catalog, has not done all that it could.  Apple has add the support to iTunes and the iTunes music store, but the support is...

Project Motorsport:

Project Motorsport started out as a fun way to spend an afternoon. We set out to shoot some motorcycle video and have a good time. Once when we brought the video back and began to edit, we realized we had the making of a music video.

Check out the video and see for yourself. And, if your interested in further information on the project, we give you that too!


The Freedom to Switch:

In 2003 Apple Computer released a marketing campaign with the intention of showing Wintel users how easy it would be to "switch" platforms.

One of the Mac's main selling points, ironically enough, was Digital Video Editing. Apple wanted the world to see how easy it was to edit video on the Mac platform. And, in overwhelming response, Mac users set out to show the world just how easy it really was.

The campaign was effective for Apple, but also spawned a unexpected parody campaign in the Mac underworld. Users from all of the world whipped out their camcorders and set to work making spoofs in the same cinematic style as the acclaimed commercial line.

With this, Maclive.net rose to the challenge and shot our own spoof. We think it proves that a Mac can be a powerful tool in the wrong hands. It also shows how far a couple of Mac fans will go for a laugh. We hope you enjoy our contribution, aptly named The Freedom to Switch.
