73D4F905-EBA6-4EAB-8469-1045A8AF454F.jpgSteve Jobs is suffering with health issues, and Phil Schiller is providing the Keynote address at this year's Macworld Expo.

With the lack of Steve being there, I don't expect any earth shattering announcements. Here are my predictions.

- Mac Mini. This will either be deprecated or updated. If it's updated, look for a thinner design, updated graphics chips like the ones found in the new Macbooks. READ MORE »

1pass.pngFor the last few weeks I've been tearing my hair out everytime I launched my web browser. I could literally click on Safari or Firefox and start counting from 1 to 40 and it might actually give me the option to type in something to the address bar after 40 seconds. It was strange.

Software Update.pngApple releases the new 10.5.6 update -- continues to be vague in the details.

The update is recommended for all Mac OS X Leopard users.
Products affected:
Mail, Mac OS X 10.5, iCal 3.x, MobileMe Sync, iChat, AirPort, Safari

You can get the update from Software Update, but if you have a broadband connection, I always recommend getting the full Combo update. I have found doing this is much more reliable and helps eliminate problems other users might encounter. READ MORE »
