Black MacBooks are pretty neat and probably show less dirt, but did anyone else notice is cost $125 more than white (with the exact same specs).

My friend eagerly waited on Macworld 2008 before buying an Apple TV to make sure they wouldn’t come up a newer model, which they didn’t. Today we decided to go to the local Apple store to pick up a 160 GB Apple TV and an HDMI cable and they where sold out of both. Luckily I’m in the area with five apple stores within 45 mins, so I gave them all a call and they where out of stock too!

We weren’t in any rush or anything because the free update isn’t available yet, so we ordered one online. We just received an email from apple that the order had been back ordered and expect the Apple TV to be shipped in February.

It seems “Apple TV Take 2″ might be a bigger hit than some may think.

Reading the TUAW today I found a cool post on how to by create a custom icon for you iphones homepage on Dan Dickinsons site. All you have to do is

    1. Create a 57×57 PNG.
    2. Name it “apple-touch-icon.png”
    3. Throw it in the root folder of your website.

      If you go to Dan Dickinsons link above, it will explain ways to make the .png file name to whatever you want. It’s Pretty cool. Only thing I suggest is keep at least 15% space around your logo or it will be chopped off a little. I made one for www.50leaves.com and turned out pretty good.
