Fake pokemon yellow in the app store!

iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad users.

On the off chance your brain stops momentarily working and you go to the app store and consider buying that 'Pokémon Yellow' on there that's the second highest selling app, think twice. It doesn't work past the opening screen. Not to mention Nintendo would never license such a product to Apple or anyone else for distribution.

If you've already spent the 69p or so on it, you deserved to have your money taken.

Damm computer

My computer is so slow. Ive had it since summer 2008, and at the time it was really good. I had it custom built with some of the best components on the market at that time. However, over the last 3 and a half years its got progessively worse. I've cleared it out a few times, done complete factory resets but still it's so slow.

Not to mention the battery has a lifespan of 3 minutes....

I'm gonna buy a new one, as I need something GOOD to work on this website on. Should I go MAC or PC?

Watch the video below, and you may consider what im considering:

I'll just leave this here...

Angry Birds

Not something that annoys me for once!

I absolutely LOVE Angry Birds. I was among one of the first few hundred to download the original game, and I currently rank in the top 5% of all Angry Birds, Angry Birds seasons and Angry Birds Rio players of all time, and its because of this that I am posting this image:

Today, the world lost one of the greatest visionaries it has ever seen, or ever will, for that matter.

Steven Paul “Steve” Jobs has passed away at the age of 56; just one day after the launch of a product that he helped mastermind and create.You were one of a kind Steve, you will be deeply missed

22 Fake Apple Stores Found in ONE City!

Ok, so a few weeks ago we heard about an American man living in china who had stumbled across an apple store in the city of Kunming in China, and we soon heard that another 4 had been found.

Now Chinese officials are saying there are 22 fake apples stores, all in this one city! In fact some stores tried so hard to be like the proper ones that they even dressed their staff in the same official apple store clothes and gave them all apple store-like lanyards.

The government have shut down at least 2 of the stores for trading without a license and the other shops have been told to stop using the logos as Chinese laws prohibit copying the "look and feel" of another company without permission.

It is not clear whether the shops being reprimanded were selling products sourced from Apple distributors in the country or grey market imports.

The Kunming retail watchdog said it would step up its monitoring efforts and set up a hotline through which the public can report unauthorised Apple shops they find.

Crazy?! First fake iPhones from china, now fully fledged fake shops!

Unboxing the iPhone 5

Well, you guessed it, it's probably a fake (seeing as the iPhone 5 isn't due to be released for another month or so)

The video below was posted on youtube by ZAGG, a company who make "The InvisibleShield". Obviously a marketing stunt, but what a great way to get publicity!

I'm annoyed that, due to my contract, I wont be getting the iPhone 5 for another year (when 2 year contract runs out) and by that time, the iPhone 6 is sure to have arrived. Oh well.

Apple > US Government

I heard today that Apple have more cash than the US Government. Apple have $75.88 billion in cash (yes cash!) while the United States only have $73.77 billion.

The Financial Post reports this news, and you can check the United States Treasury and Apple’s last earnings call to compare. Apple actually has more money than that compared to the US, considering the US “operating balance” only refers to the amount of money the country can spend before it hits the debt ceiling.

Apple can proudly say that it’s richer than one of the world’s largest and most powerful countries. Now THAT'S something to be proud of!

Soon To Pass

I've had my laptop for nearly 3 years now. I think it's about to die. It was top of the range when I got it (It cost me nearly £1000, and seeing as I was only 16 and unemployed at the time, that was a lot of money to spend on a laptop).

However, over the last few months the battery life has been getting worse. Currently, if I were to unplug it right now I would have just under 7 minutes to finish writing this post and to publish it before it died. And if I turn off WIFI until I'm ready to post? 9 minutes.

The weird thing is that when I bought the laptop, I paid a little more to get a 9 Cell Battery instead of a 6 Cell one. I wonder what the battery life would be like now if I hadn't.

So, I think when I get some monies, I will buy myself a new laptop. The question is, PC or MAC?
