If you have suddenly become unhappy with your desktop wallpaper, why not try something more creative. Make your own ! Have a look at how these people, in effect, made their desktop transparent, so that you can see the items behind the screen. Doing something like this will really add a sense of depth to your computer. wallpaper mac

In the first one you can see the charger and the chairs behind the screen.  And see how the cables match up ! It’s absolutely amazing !

ipod background

Here is a 2nd Generation iPod, and the background screen has been changed (we will bring you details on how to do this in another post).  The background screen of the iPod looks like it’s not really there because it matches up with the pieces of paper on the left and right hand side of it.

more of these can be seen here, sadly they are not all Macs, so you have been warned !

The world’s thinnest notebook has been announced, at the apple keynote speech. Steve Jobs brought out this little guy in an oversized envelope during the Apple keynote speech. Yes it’s that small.

First look at the macbook air

 

Yael Naim & The MacBook Air

One the apple.com website there is a cool ad which shows someone taking the MacBook Air out of an envelope ! There is some cool music, called “New Soul” by Yael Naim. Yael Naim is a French born (1978) beauty who was born into a French-Israeli family.

The MacBook Air Features

  • Widescreen display (1280-by-800 resolution)
  • Full-size keyboard
  • The genius of multi-touch
  • Between 0.16 to 0.76 inch thin and weighing only 3.0 lbs
  • Next-generation wireless using 802.11n technology (i.e. faster)

MacBook air in all it’s beauty

A few things are indeed missing from the laptop:

  • CD/DVD drive
  • Power on Button
  • Removable Battery

I’m sure for some users these things are not so interesting, and with the move to download movies and shows from the internet, the days of CDs and DVD may be coming to an end.

The MacBook Air Prices

Prices start at $1799 for the basic 13″ version which comes with a Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 2 GB of memory and 80GB of an internal hard drive. For another $1200 you can get a solid state 64GB instead, along with a slightly faster CPU.
