Dear reader, macbook amateur posted news of Jim Dalrymple’s new blog. It’s right HERE.

As soon as I remember how to do it, I’m going to add it to my blog roll. I’m decidedly a non-geek. I figure this stuff out once and then I forget.

Anyway, in the most recent post Jim notices that the echosphere is trying to turn imaginary molehills into real mountains. It’s all about the reported “overheating” issue with the iPhone 3G S. It’s all over the blogs. Apple has admitted nothing. He noted a few of the precautions Apple has posted for acceptable iPhone 3G S operating temperatures.

Apple does recommend that you don’t try to clean the screen with the blue part of the flame from a Zippo® lighter.

Also, you shouldn’t leave your iPhone 3G S on the barbecue grill without turning it for more than five minutes.

There are more precautions you should take. They’re listed on a special iPhone 3G S support page: www.apple.com/iphone/3G/S/youhaveovercookedoatmealwhereothershavebrains/fuctard.html

Little Psystar (pronounced: SIS-ter) is back in the news. They’ve exited bankruptcy with a new Xeon-based hackintosh.

I’m going to admit something I never thought I would: I’m flabbergasted. Little Psystar must believe they’ve bought a couple of judges is the only thing I can think of to explain their arrogance.

This is one I’m just going to have to watch for a while. I can’t make any sense of it.

There has never been, is not now, and will never be an iPhone killer. Learn it. Live it. Love it.

If you’ve never read Palluxo, don’t bother. They’re reporting a “reliable source” who states that Steve Jobs is having an illicit affair with the wife of a pizza delivery driver or something like that.

And now for something completely different….

While I’m personally opposed to shooting federal legislators in the midst of firecrackers going off which would mask the sound of gunshots, I certainly wouldn’t want to impose my morals on others.

Have a lovely Fourth, all.

    I’m not surprised. No comments. I understand. Some people are just scared. Teensy weensy little genitalia. No guts.

    I don’t even mind.

    Rip,
    Thinking of going to the Regent Street Apple Store, London, UK. Following the shooting in VA, can you guarantee only staff members are being shot? If that is confirmed, how can I make it plain that I am a customer and not bullet fodder?

    When you enter, immediately start surfing the internet on the first available computer. Or you tweet with your iPhone. Do anything that requires no eye contact with another human being. Alternatively, you can talk to a Genius. They don’t talk to each other, so you’ll be obviously a visitor.

    Rip,
    Thanks but slight problem, no iPhone or indeed any cell phone. Still use two baked bean tins and a shark fishing reel full of wire. All have Apple stickers.

  • Rip Ragged

    Hmmm. Well, as long as you have an Apple logo you won’t be shot by the staff.
