The RefurbStore is back in Europe

By linathael. Original by Lionel - 04/05/2005 14:00:14 CEST - Category: Apple
After months of absence, the RefurbStore is back in Europe. There are not so many products to be sold, but one can currently find PMG5 dual 1.8GHz for 1484€ (all taxes included). If you were expecting to buy an entry-level model, it is a good deal compared to the price of the PMG5 SP 1.8GHz!
The shortest way to the RefurbStore is there!

Tiger and rotating display

By linathael. Original by Lionel - 04/05/2005 13:55:53 CEST - Category: Mac OS X
In March, we were reporting that Tiger will support "pivot" mode for rotating screens.

Today we have obtained additional information related to this feature:
- It is an ATI-only feature; the option is not available with nVIDIA GPU-based graphic card;
- It only works on an external display when using a notebook, but one can place the tool bar on the rotated screen.
- It works only with an AGP connection. Impossible to use it with an ATI PCI graphic card.
- This function is integrated in Tiger, so there is not driver to look for.

What's new with Tiger ?

Apple has published online a TechNote dedicated to Tiger's new features.
It is a real "Gold Mine":

iTMS: another mistake !? [Update]

By linathael. Original by Lionel - 04/05/2005 11:56:32 CEST - Category: Apple
The new album of Oasis was supposed to be available only on May 30th. However, as reported by Guillaume, it is already available on iTMS Germany.
We could not check if it is really possible to buy the album from iTMS Germany, but it is already possible to listen the first 30 seconds of each track...

They probably made a mistake due to the date format difference between USA end Europe: 30/05/05 with 03/05/05.
[Update] Our news seems to have induced reaction... The last Oasis album has been removed from iTMS Germany...
