Europe's biggest information technology fair went green this year -- the problem was that there weren't many people around to notice.
Microsoft pledged on Wednesday that all of its future operating systems, including Windows Vista, will abide by self-imposed rules aimed at bolstering choice and competition.
French online music store Virgin Mega has filed a complaint against Apple Computer, claiming that the company's refusal to license the copy protection technology used in its iPod is harming competition.
Apple is reportedly planning to get into the movie rental business and license its digital rights management technology, and could announce a deal within the next few weeks.
Rumours of Apple working on a touchscreen Mac have been circulating for years, and will only grow with the revelation that the company is hoping to patent similar technology.
People were apparently switching their brains off before joining the 3G iPhone queues, so it's somewhat surprising that considering an appropriate amount of storage was quite a high priority for many buyers.
Writing a blog is an open invitation to correction, ridicule and abuse, and writing a blog entry about anything to do with Apple greatly magnifies all those possibilities.
It's always funny watching an event force a company to break old habits and this IE zero day was enough for Microsoft to do it. As Microsoft Australia's strategic security advisor Stuart Strathdee said "we pulled all stops to get this patch out".
Australian online radio publisher and distributor, Stripe, late last week admitted it had slimmed down somewhat as it had finished building its technology platform and populating its online stations.
Attending last weekend's BarCamp in Sydney, it was hard to escape the conclusion that a certain "dot-com bust" flavour had seeped into the kool aid previously being drunk by Australia's web 2.0 and early stage start-up sector.
With Australia's ICT sector experiencing a wave of layoffs, it's time to look for the positives. Take a leaf out of Steve Jobs' book and ask yourself what would you be doing if money wasn't important?
As the Microsoft and Apple execs get ready to share the stage at a conference this week, we look at other times the tech titans have shared the spotlight.
Michael Robertson started MP3.com and Linspire. Now he's taking on iTunes with BadApple.
In the 1970s, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak were going door-to-door at the UC Berkeley dorms selling "blue boxes" -- electronic devices that tricked the telephone network into allowing free long-distance phone calls.
Companies' new operating systems -- Tiger and Longhorn -- bear a resemblance. But just who copied whom?
Microsoft has "I'm a PC" ads, Apple has "I'm a Mac", it's only fair that Linux has "I'm a Linux" too. Also on Club Builder this week, we look at the week of hacking and offer you the chance to win big in our competition.
The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement.
Apple made a number of changes to the 24-inch iMac, but making it available at this price is the most impressive. The rest of the updates are welcome, and Apple's multitasking capability remains unmatched.
Apple's smaller-scale iMac remains our favourite all-in-one. And while its looks, its ease of use, and its performance are all selling points, Windows PCs are starting to catch up (at least with the latter).
Apple's new Time Capsule incorporates both a wireless router and a hard drive into the same product. In its niche, the Time Capsule is the most advanced product on the market -- its price is also fair compared with a separate router and network-attached hard drive.
Apple's AirPort Express Base Station has always been remarkable in that it is networking hardware that people actually seem to get excited about. Thanks to an update to the 802.11n wireless networking standard, this compact, easy-to-use device can now add increased wireless networking performance to its list of pros.
