I have received a couple promo emails from Apple today, and thought perhaps I’d pass it along here. The iPad will be shipping April 3rd. Some of you can’t wait. I am going to wait. I am excited to play with it, but I really think that this will be a bit like the iPhone,…

Fan Boy?
On the half-hour drive home from celebrating our daughter’s 6th birthday, we somehow remembered the famous Get A Mac ads that Apple has so brilliantly done for the past several years. I think it started with our oldest son and I quoting from one of them. Well, from there we remembered that the complete library…
iPad: Apple’s Most “Magical” Device?
Well it is finally here. The long-awaited, oft-rumored Apple tablet. It’s called the iPad. (iPad? Is that really the best name for it?) Though Apple calls this new gizmo “magical,” I must admit, I’m still not impressed. I’ve never been one calling for the tablet. I just don’t get it. I don’t need such a…
Is The Apple Tablet Rumor About To Become Reality?
If you’ve followed this blog for very long, you know that I am a huge fan of all things Apple. In previous years (with fewer kids? fewer jobs?) I would follow the Apple rumor sites (like this one) and report diligently on the speculation of others, and even my own. (That was a pretty good…
Oh Nine, Oh Nine, Oh Nine
For some reason, I’m one of those people who like it when the calendar says something more. Earlier this year we had 07/08/09. Seven, Eight, Nine. That’s fun! Every year there’s one day where the day, month, and year all match… And today is that day! š Hope you have a great 09/09/09! If you’re…
When You’re Ready To Compromise…
Apple released a couple new Get A Mac ads last week, and I’d say this particular one vaulted into my top five favorites of the whole 3 year campaign! Enjoy!

Apple announced yesterday that their latest version of Mac OS X will be available for purchase this Friday, August 28th! The OS dubbed “Snow Leopard” will mostly streamline the current OS, Leopard, even down to the start up and shutdown time. Also, it takes up much less space on your hard drive. The software will…
GregsApples.com … is back? (Sort of.)
Hey folks! Just wanted to give you a quick heads up. I was reminded today that I used to be an Authorized Apple Business Agent, for which Apple paid me a commission on any sales I generated for them. That was neat. Then I was an Apple Business Store Affiliate, similar deal, just not working…
WWDC Kicks Off: No Jobs, But Plenty of Fun
As expected, Steve Jobs did not make an appearance at the latest Apple keynote. However, many product updates did take center stage! No time to detail it, but here are some highlights: New iPhone: 3G(s) (“s” stands for “speed”, says Apple) Same prices, but current iPhone (3G, 8GB model) will sell for $99! Tons of…
Scary Dream!
This morning, just before I woke up… I was still in a bit of a dream state. Everything seemed normal. I was talking with someone, and they wanted to show me something on their computer. It was a Mac, of course. (Just like in the movies, my dreams have a disproportionate amount of Macs to…
