Check this out: Twenty years ago this week, Apple Continue reading 5 Most Important Mac Laptops
I found this review for LG’s most current Blu Ray burner offering which is touted for its Blu-ray disc re-writeable features. LG USA was kind enough to send us the LG BH08LS20 Super Multi Blu-ray Disc Rewriter with LightScribe. LG, even though an early endorser of Blu-Ray, has made it possible for the consumer to experience Continue reading LG BH08LS20 Super Multi Blu-ray Disc Re-Writeable REVIEW |

An energetic and obviously healthy Steve Jobs (pancreatic cancer survivor, recently had surgery in March) took to the stage in the Apple mothership’s Fall iPod refresh — which featured, among other things, the new iPod Nano 5G (5th Gen). Sporting a number of improvements from its 4G predecessor, the iPod Nano is Cupertino’s answer for your holiday budget iPod itch.
A big clunky external DVD writer, with all its accompanying cords (power cords and interface cords — USB, Firewire, etc.), is enough to give you a mild de-cluttering crisis. I believe giving up on an external DVD burner may not be entirely the solution. Enter the DIGISTOR Self-Powered external DVD burner. DIGISTOR has employed into this drive a nifty self-powering solution so that the drive itself — already slim and very sleek-looking — does not need a power cord for its use. Read more from MacPCWiz. 
Toshiba announced the newest Qosmio model today, the X500 series, and the most notable new feature is the overdue, inevitable inclusion of a Blu-Ray drive or burner–Toshiba’s first. (The one-time proponent of HD-DVD formally announced it was getting into the Blu-Ray game last month.) The X500 also has an Intel Core i7 processor, 6GB of DDR3 RAM, Nvidia GeForce GTS 250 graphics with a gigabyte of DDR5 memory, HDMI, Harmon/Kardon sound, and room for two hard drives (one of which can be a solid-state disk).

Pioneer presents the BDR-S05J, the first 12X Blu-ray burner. The device supports up to 12x recording on BD-R discs and BD-RE. DVD-RAM and CD-R/RW are also supported.The Pioneer BDR-S05J-BK has 4MB buffer memory and uses SATA interface. It includes a dustproof structure that keeps dust away from the internal of the drive’s case, as well as Pioneer’s Disc-Resonance Stabiliser technology. Read more from MacPCWiz.
With the advent of Blu-Ray technology, it seems that everybody is jumping on that specific bandwagon. Sony now offers a free Blu-Ray upgrade on its newest and latest VAIO laptop computer models. Is this a great deal or what? MacPCWiz found this article, read on.
Sharp has announced that it’s now capable of building a blue-violet laser that’s capable of writing triple and quadruple-layer Blu-ray (BD) discs at up to 8x. This would probably make a case for those people who want to back-up exclusively to Blu-Ray discs. As of the moment, people are still hampered by the 25GB and 50GB limits of Blu-Ray. With this new development, will we be seeing higher data quantities on BD-Rs and BD-REs? Read more from MacPCWiz.
MacPCWiz reports on iTunes 9, set to debut very soon. Apparently, Apple’s prime media player and iPod bridge is set to include high definition video and Blu-Ray features when it releases. Does this signal Steve Job’s reluctant surrender to Blu-Ray? Read more from MacPCWiz.
