Details on Intel 45nm desktop processors: It looks like Intel will release the Yorkfield XE processor on November 11. The Yorkfield XE will formally be know as the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 quad-core processor. We won't be surprised if you see this processor in a new desktop Mac revealed at January's Mac Expo.

 

iPhone uprising: The iPhone popularity tide is turning, thanks to Apple's refusal to honor the warranty of hacked iPhones. There's a movement to file a class action lawsuit against Apple. If you own a hacked iPhone and you need to have it serviced, remember to restore it in iTunes before your bring it in.

 

Starbucks iTunes kicks off tomorrow: If you live in New York or Seattle, you'll be able to shop at the Starbucks section of the iTunes Music Store. About 600 cafes will offer the service. One interesting note in the linked article: You can shop at the Starbucks iTunes Music Store while using iTunes on a Mac or PC notebook.

 

Cloned Apple stores: Apple resellers, looking to regain customers who have left to be regular Apple Store customers, are copying the look and feel of Apple Stores. You'll have to check with your local reseller to see if MySpace access is allowed.

 

Update Boot Camp: If you tried to use Boot Camp beta 1.2 and you couldn't that's because it expired on September 30. You need to upgrade to Boot Camp 1.4. Remember, Boot Camp is beta, and version 1.4 will expire when Leopard is released.
