Sleepy Time!

You know that you can’t get enough of these kittens. I really need to find home for them. Would you be the one?

Countdown to MobileMe Extinction, T-Minus 26 Days.

For those who wants to get refund for their MobileMe Service:

Can I get a refund for my MobileMe subscription?
If you have an unused activation code from a MobileMe box, you can submit a refund request through June 30th, 2012. Or if you have an active subscription, you can cancel your service.

Then again, if you were trying to cancel your MobileMe account at this point in time, it’d be pointless. If you have those unused codes, then you can still get your money back.

Laugh and a half.

Apple rumors are gearing up as we approached June 11th, 2012 for WWDC. Someone had the idea to circulate rumor about “Retina Display” on MacBook Pro. I asked my trusted source, firstnameatappledotcom about this particular rumor. The answer I got:

Maybe you’re sitting too close to the screen.

Followed with cryptic laugh and a half.

Apple will still sell new MacBook Pros with “non-Retina Display” after WWDC 2012. If there were such things as “Retina Display” MacBook Pros, it would be a build to order option or a higher end model.
