2011macmini

The new Mac mini is certainly a gorgeous portable powerhouse, giving users the chance to have the capabilities of a Mac desktop all at a pretty affordable price. With that though, to get it to be a full fledged Mac, you need to outfit it with some new gear, be it a monitor, keyboard, mouse, or perhaps some sweet new speakers. Check out some of the offerings to get you started, and perhaps help you decide further if the latest Mac mini is right for you and your budget.

This week, we've got three apps that help you get those goals completed, pay those bills, remember to feed your dependents (plants count, too), and even get inspired with more ideas! But remember: you don't have to start being productive today of all days. It's Friday, after all! It can wait until Monday. Anything can wait until Monday.

Rumor: Apple May Buy Barnes & Noble

Posted 07/29/2011 at 1:48pm | by Adrian Hoppel

Comments

An "unproven source" delivered a tip that Apple is considering buying Barnes & Noble for approximately $1.5 billion. Interesting idea, as Apple could absorb B&N's vast ebook library into iBooks, and possibly convert several of the retail stores into new Apple stores.

Apple certainly has the money, could this be one of the "strategic opportunities" Steve Jobs was alluding to?

Gallery: A Look at the 2011 MacBook Air and Mac mini

We finally got ahold of the brand spankin' new Mac mini and MacBook Air. While the specifications were already very impressive -- a bump in performance with its updated processors and the inclusion of the new Thunderbolt i/O port -- the deal is absolutely sealed when you get ahold of one of these beautiful babies. The MacBook Air is light and easy to weild, and while the Mac mini is a little heavy out of the box, its sleek, brushed metallic chassis had us instantly infatuated, and we couldn't wait to pair it with the new Thunderbolt Display. Click through for your own 360-degree view of both the MacBook Air and Mac mini.

Oh, and can you tell what they both have in common? Okay, we'll tell you: neither have an optical drive!

Apple's offered the gift of Lion Server to anyone who's willing to drop an extra $50. Previously, you could only get OS X Server bundled on your Mac mini Server or Mac Pro, or pay $499 for the Snow Leopard Server install discs. By lowering the price, more end users can afford Apple’s server offering. In this article, we’ll show you how to download and set up Lion server on your Mac.

iMac vs. Mac mini: Which One Is Right For You?

Now that eighty percent of Apple’s five Mac product lines have been souped up with Intel Sandy Bridge processors and Thunderbolt I/O ports, desk-bound consumers may find themselves in a bit of a quandary as to which one to buy. Does it still make sense to buy an iMac with such a fully featured Mac mini now available? Read on to find out.

Another Reason To Get A Mac: Free iLife For Any Mac You Own

It’s no secret that Apple is moving away from packaged software, with even OS X Lion being sold as a Mac App Store exclusive. As it turns out, there’s one noteworthy side effect of this new push -- the copy of iLife you get free with every new Mac will also work on any other system using the same Apple ID as well.

Hide Those Unwanted Apps with Launchpad-Control

Apple sometimes introduces features that look awesome during a keynote, only to wind up being “meh” in real life. One such example is Launchpad, the new OS X Lion feature that brings iOS-style folder management for your Mac apps, but no way to manage all the extraneous stuff hiding in your Applications folder -- until now.

How to Re-arrange the Finder Sidebar in Lion

Posted 07/28/2011 at 3:30pm | by Cory Bohon

Comment

Apple has changed the sidebar in Mac OS X Lion so that the devices and local/external disk drives are at the bottom of the list. Some Mac faithful may not necessarily appreciate these changes, however. While Apple has not included a way to move these items back to the top of the Finder sidebar, there is a way to get some of the items at the top for easy access.

Office for Mac Update Will Bring New Lion Features, But Not Yet

Posted 07/28/2011 at 2:26pm | by Adrian Hoppel

2

Comments

New reports indicate that an update is coming for Microsoft's Office for Mac that will deliver new Lion based features, including Auto Save and Full Screen Mode. That update, however, is still a few months away.

The main Office apps, Word, Excel, and PowePoint, run fine on Lion right now, but bugs have appeared with secondary apps and features. These and other smaller issues will be handled with periodic updates, but bringing the cool Lion features to the big three Office apps is something that will be "measured in months not days -- just to set expectations," according to Microsoft's Pat Fox.
