Chopper 2 for the Mac controlled by iPhone
I wouldn’t be surprised if we even see Apple get in on the action, both enabling this type of cross-platform compatibility in its own apps (controlling Keynote on the Mac from an iPhone, for example), and including helpful calls in the API to let developers do so themselves.
Majic Jungle has led iOS cross-platform interactivity with Chopper 2 for many months now. Since then, only a handful of other apps (Scrabble, Plex, The Incident, and Keynote Remote) have taken the initiative to implement such a level of cross-platform ingenuity. If Apple is to jump on and support this kind of development, more app developers need to test the waters and show interest.

An update and some clarification on Tweetie 2 for Mac
In fact, we’ve confirmed with Loren that it’s alive and well and he’s still progressing on Tweetie 2, even though with the acquisition and his new responsibilities, it’s taking longer than he originally anticipated. It’s also worth noting that he’s added another developer to help him move things along.
That’s a relief.
Apple just announced a media event on October 20th, accompanying it with this image. Looks like OS X 10.7 will be a Lion? If the rumblings I’ve heard while at WWDC are correct, it certainly sounds like it could well be the king of OS X releases.
Can’t wait.

Why You Shouldn't Trust All Infographics
My problem with this post on The Next Web isn’t so much with the graphic itself, that is outdated and misinformed about Apple’s product line (which includes a cheaper Mac that should have been used to compare against NewEgg prices). My problem is that the author of the post, Zee, didn’t include any context with the picture itself, and instead just left it for any uninformed individual (who may be deciding whether or not to purchase a Mac) to take as is.
I’m not denying that you do pay a premium for Apple products—even with the “consumer” iMac. But there’s a level of quality and performance with a higher end Mac Pro that can never be fully understood until you try it out for yourself.
Also, PCs from NewEgg can be just as expensive:
