Microsoft Songsmith, and the ad features MacBook Pro.

Songsmith is for Windows OS only, Mac users can cry in the corner; or will they?

Palm Pre, the would be savior of Palm.

Palm is back with a new OS and new SmartPhone in the form of Palm Pre. It looks promising so far, and some anti-Apple movement crowd are hoping that Palm Pre would be the iPhone killer.
