    Doom on the iPhone

    By Paranoid Marvin, in OSx86,

    We all knew it would come eventually, after all, if you can play Doom on your iPod, it will run on the iPhone, right?
    Well, it seems that Doom has been ported to the iPhone.

    However, there is the little problem of controlling it...
    It's pretty useless at the moment, but it look like something to keep an eye on!

    iMovie 6 HD now FREE! | 154.6 MB

    By EFI, in OSx86,

    Well..it seems that Apple has indeed listened to our pleas. Because iMovie 08 is a complete re-write of the application, and many users feel that it is in many ways inferior to the previous iMovie 6 HD, and have complained about these unwanted changes in iMovie 08, Apple has come to a conclusion. If you purchse iLife 08 now, you can download a free copy of iMovie 6 HD. Both iMovie 6 HD, and iMovie 08, can live happily on the same machine, becauase iMovie 08 moves your iMovie HD to a seperate folder of its own, thus allowing you to run the applications in parallel if need be.
     
    This is done, becuase; as many have written to Apple about iMovie 08:
     
    - No plugin support
    - No themes
    - Multiple audio track support is gone
    - No timeline view

    Mac Pro with RAID card avaliable

    By EFI, in OSx86,

    Apple added a new built to order option for their Mac Pro series. It's a new dedicated RAID card option:
     

     
    However, it does not come cheap... in fact, your Mac Pro's price will be increased instantly to $999 greater than what it cost before the option was added. That's right, the card costs a whopping 1K on it's own.

    By EFI, in OSx86,

    Well, yesterday (Aug 7), Apple previewed a new feature to the .Mac service called web gallery. We have seen it in the demo, however now one is available in real time to get an experience on how it works/looks.

    You can do all the things that Jobs mentioned in yesterday's keynote, including the mouseover imageflick, various resolution videos, as well as the different views.

    Test drive iWork 08 now!

    By EFI, in OSx86,

    If only the same could be said for iLife....but Apple made iWork 08 ready for a 30 day trial spin:
     

     
    And yes, that is indeed a typo ("...folder on you Mac...") on Apple's site.
     
    The trial includes the new Pages, Keynote, as well as Numbers. The servers are getting slammed today just after Jobs' keynote, as demonstrated by extremely slow download speeds, however and hour later, they were back up to decent rates (300Kb/s).
