Is this the Microsoft/Seinfeld ad that was going to kill Apple? [updated]

(via MacMerc) Mac fanboys were secretly quaking in their boots a few weeks ago when it was announced that TV funnyman Jerry Seinfeld was tapped to take part in a $300 million ad campaign on behalf of Micro$oft as a response to Apple’s “Get a Mac” ads that have been chipping away at the software manufacturer and its Vista woes for well over a year now.

If this (see…

Who wants a hilarious ringone, right NOW?

(via TUAW) Beau Weaver, voice-over artist (who you will immediately recognize when you hear) and “diehard” TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog) reader has put together a hilarious ringtone that he’s offering for free on his website that’s sort of a variation on the whole “in a world …” movie trailer thing.

Having problems setting up GMail to work seamlessly with Apple OS X Mail? I was. It was the bane of my existence for awhile and continued getting worse until I’d had enough.

Starting to Lose Faith in Apple

I have long considered myself one of the worlds biggest Apple fans, so I have been biting my tongue for as long as I could about Leopard. But this week was the last straw. I’m sure there are even more fervent fans like me who will say, “well, you shouldn’t have done that.” I’ve seen them on the message boards, but when it comes right down to…
