Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6)

Intel Mac users will like Snow Leopard's smartly designed interface enhancements, and its Exchange support is a must-have (especially with Outlook for Mac on the way). With a ton of technological improvements, Snow Leopard is worth the AU$39 upgrade fee.

Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Air (1.6GHz)

    Apple has released what has to be the thinnest notebook ever -- the MacBook Air.

  • Lexmark X3550

    On the surface, the X3550 appears to be a budget workhorse of a printer with the enticing option of wireless connectivity. It's a pity then, that the wireless is so expensive to include, and the printer itself so slow.

  • Apple Macbook (1.83GHz, 13-inch)

    Starting at AU$1,749, Apple has released its Intel-based MacBook, which replaces its iBook series of budget laptops.

  • Buffalo LinkTheater

    Looking for a way to play movies and music from your PC in your living room? Buffalo's wireless media player might be the device you're after.

  • Apple SuperDrive Mac Mini (1.42 GHz)

    The Apple SuperDrive Mac Mini addresses some of the shortcomings of its AU$799 predecessor, making it a well-rounded home PC at its base configuration.

  • Apple iTunes 4.9

    Apple iTunes remains the easiest way to rip, organise and play digital music but still lacks an Australian music store. New in version 4.9 are built-in podcast features.

  • Apple iPod (60GB, colour)

    Though it no longer comes with such extras as a dock or an A/V cable, the photo-enabled iPod (née iPod Photo) is, pound for pound, the best iPod available.

  • Apple iPod Mini (6GB)

    Apple comes through again with a near-perfect MP3 player.

  • Why do Apple customers care so much?

    There is no question that Macintosh users are by far the most passionate advocates for their products in the technology industry. And while such passion is remarkable and even moving, it can also be terribly disturbing.

  • Apple still quiet on game strategy

    Windows PCs still own the game world, as Apple seems content to focus on digital media and portable music.

  • Measuring the iPod effect

    According to popular consensus, the much beloved iPod has boosted Apple Computer's Mac sales and may ultimately help the company get into phones.

  • Celebrating three decades of Apple

    In the 1970s, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak were going door-to-door at the UC Berkeley dorms selling "blue boxes" -- electronic devices that tricked the telephone network into allowing free long-distance phone calls.
