Printer Sharing for Switchers

Windows users making the switch to Macs usually have Windows computers and peripherals they would like to continue to use. One of the most common questions from new users is, "Can I print from my Mac to the printer connected to my Windows computer?"

Review Update: Bento Image Gallery

Tuesday July 22, 2008

I recently reviewed Bento, FileMaker’s new personal database application, awarding it a four-star rating. To complement the review, I’ve added an image gallery that shows some of the Bento features mentioned in the review.

Apple Posts Record Revenue and Profit for the Quarter Ending in June

Tuesday July 22, 2008

Apple not only beat the Street with record revenue and profits, it also beat my prediction of $1.12 earnings per share. The actual amount reported by Apple was $1.19, or $1.07 billion in quarterly profit. Total revenue for the quarter was $7.46 billion.

Mac sales for the quarter were 2.5 million, a 41 percent increase over last year. iPods came in at 11 million sold, with a 12 percent growth over the previous year.

Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, said, “We’re proud to report the best June quarter for both revenue and earnings in Apple’s history. We set a new record for Mac sales, we think we have a real winner with our new iPhone 3G, and we’re busy finishing several more wonderful new products to launch in the coming months.”

Leave it to Steve to drop a tantalizing comment about new products.
