• 3229032878_f17ceeb7df_o.jpgAnother Monday, another set of Mac-related news. On your bike, and on with the news!

    iPhone icon coasters would make excellent presents for that iPhone-lover in your life. They'd even make awesome presents to yourself, but I doubt you'd get a set before Christmas.

    The next iPhone has already begun to be tested, according to a certain iPhone developement company. Usage logs with the identifier of "iPhone3,1" were spotted in Pandav's servers a couple of days ago, so here's hoping that a new iPhone is in the works. Personally I think it's a little early, but if Apple are going to release a new iPhone every 6-9 months that's okay by me - just not my wallet...

    Sometime ago, Nissan developed a paint for it's cars that was not only harder to scratch, but also repaired itself - the real news comes from the fact that Japanese phone company DoCoMo have now gained a license to use that technology. Take that, oleophobic screen!

    If you know of an old Grandma with an iPod, be sure to grab her one of these awesome iPod cases for Christmas. Or not, seeing as they retail for 66 Euros.

    Intel have revealed their 2010 roadmap, which means new processors and tasty, tasty silicon for all. Since Apple and Intel are pretty much best buddies by now, you'd have to be insane to think that these chips won't make it into a new Mac near you.

    If you thought that the iPod nano wasn't available in enough colours, just think of those poor Zune users. The good news is that they now have two more colours to choose from, bringing the total to, um, 3? Or it could be 4 - it's hard to tell from the Zune website.

    Silverlight is Microsoft's answer to the Adobe Flash juggernaut that we all know and hate. Unnlike it's CPU-heavyweight counterpart however, Silverlight now landed on the iPhone, after collaboration between Microsoft and Apple.

    With all the kerfuffle that happened between Psystar and Apple, it's hard to imagine they only sold 768 machines.

    For the developers among us, "ZSync is an open source syncing library designed to allow easy syncing of data between an iPhone/iPod Touch and the OS X Desktop."

    Here's a cool Mac wallpaper for you to enjoy, alongside with your Monday morning. Have a good one!

    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

    SMC reset might help. Google it to find out how for your particular model.

    The Barracuda is a common HD in these machines, I'd do an SMC reset which should settle the fans down. Also check that all fans are operating properly/plugged
