    Arrow Words is a crossword-style app from Britain that’s a great little time-waster with the ability to exercise your brain at the same time. I say ‘crossword-style’ because, unlike the crosswords we’re used to, the grids don’t have true symmetrical chequerboard patterns. ...

    Top Mates is a free download for iPhone that spins a web of lies better than a pack of deceitful spiders.

    Australia is abuzz with speculation this week as the local Hulu deal supposedly edges closer and closer to completion “with or without the support of the commercial free-to-air networks.” Meanwhile, Sony's Crackle app largely slipped under the radar when it was released just a short time ago, despite bringing a selection of more than a hundred shows and movies to the table.

    Thanks guys,

    I understand that, but on Mac the best results I can get for PDFs is to first save them as .ps then convert them through Distiller. The built in Mac

    I'd max the RAM (4Gb would do), and pick up a fast 1TB+ 7200RPM hard disk for it; not worth spending a huge deal on an SSD when it costs more than the
