For the past three weeks many customers have complained about the iPhone 4’s reception issues, and many Apple critics have jumped on Apple’s lack of urgency in dealing with the problem. The question I raise today is wether or not we’re making a mountain out of a mole hill; I’m no expert in business, but I feel like I understand why the public feels that Apple, a multi-billion dollar company, is shuffling their feet on the problem while Apple is right on schedule in their minds.

Let’s go back and reiterate that Apple is a multi-billion dollar company, and a company can only become that big by having a reputation for high quality products, which means that since Apple sold 1.7 million units in the first week and local Apple Stores can’t keep them in stock, the pros of the phone are out weighing the cons. Let’s be honest; the iPhone 4 is a fantastic upgrade to a phenomenal 3G S. It’s a simple equation:

pros > cons = happy people’s wallets > angry people’s criticsim

So Why make announcements, recall the phones, and give away  free bumper cases for? They shouldn’t and they won’t. If they do that, then they are blemishing their reputation that we established in earlier. They want the attention; they want the bad press; therefore, people like yourself will research all about the iPhone 4 and learn all the pros and just say ‘I would get it, but it has one problem’, and then Apple will come out of no where and fixes the problem and sell a million more iPhone 4s. So instead of filing lawsuits let’s understand that you bought a high quality product that is top in the market.

The first thing that you are going to notice about the new iMac is the screen, and it is a beauty.  I cannot compare it to the previous generation iMac’s screen, but from what I have read, the new iMac’s screen is similar to the Apple Cinema Display.  So far the computer has been performing great.  The 3.06 GHz processer is a welcomed improvement over my 2.4 GHz MacBook Pro.  I did not order the Quad Core version because I was planning on getting the 2.8 GHz iMac before Apple announced their new product line, so this was a nice upgrade to my original choice.  I just do not need the power that the Quad Core iMac provides, so after talking with an Apple associate, I decided the 3.06 GHz was just fine for my youtube editing needs.

The little brother of the iMac, the cousin of the MacBook, the Mac mini is the often overlooked desktop computer of the Apple Macintosh line up.  Originally launched in 2005, it was intended to be a less expensive method for first time Mac “switchers”.  Priced at $599, to this day it is still the cheapest (legal) method of owning a Mac, yet still had not caught on in the same way the iMac or MacBook has.  It just doesn’t have the sex appeal of the iMac with its massive all-in-one display, or the portability of the MacBook, leaving some analyst to predict its demise nearly every product cycle.

Chrome is the Internet browser developed by Google first released for the Windows operating system in 2008.  Mac and Linux users, however, have yet to be able to take this browser for a spin. Google CEO Eric Schmidt has said that Chrome for Mac will be available in “a couple of month”, but, lets face it, most Mac users don’t like to wait for the latest tech—they want it now. Well, don’t fear loyal MacintoshTipz readers, a developer’s download is available as you read this.
