Macs never have problems. Or so I have heard. They run perfectly and they are pretty. The end. If only that were the case. According to reviewers at PC Authority, that new Core i7 processor inside is heating up. I mean really heating up. In a bad way. Like, reaching 100°C.

If you have one of these on your lap, your nads will be fried pretty quickly, or it will at least prevent you from having children. Ouch!

Forget the Swine flu. The thing that’s becoming a real epidemic is buying stones in place of things like a Nintendo DS and in this case a MacBook Pro.

In this case, a buyer named Ryan bought a Macbook Pro and when he got home he opened the box and found a paving stone packed with bubble wrap, instead of a Macbook Pro. He returned to the store and the manager, “Keith”, was not very helpful. He kept falling back on the line “Apple seals the boxes, not us. Take it up with Apple.”

Gadgets and wood have an on-again off-again relationship. Gadget makers love, whether it’s a flash drive, or a laptop case, or even headphones. Now Skullcandy has created some fancy wooden earbuds.

The wood grain earbuds will run you $99. The phones work with all your favorite music delivery devices. Some users say that using wood in earphones enhances the sound. Which likely explains the price. We aren’t sure how far this wood trend is going to go, or if it really enhances something like earbuds enough to justify the price, but what do you think? Are they worth it?

You can spot the true Apple fanboys when you see them. Sometimes they are born with the mark of the beast Steve. Sometimes they have the Apple logo spanked onto their skin. In this case, some guy went crazy sticking Apple stickers all over his car.

This plain looking wooden case has been designed for the MacBook and the 15 inch MacBook Pro. It is what it says it is. A wood box to put your laptop in. The tree that died so you can tote around your MacBook in style will surely thank you for it. Anyhow, carrying around a rigid wood box with your laptop inside isn’t exactly all that stylish or hip, or comfortable I would imagine. Think of the eventual splinters.

The inside is even lined with leather, so now the count is up to one dead tree and one dead cow. It’s not that I’m against wood and leather. It’s just that you, our awesome readers, deserve something better then a plain old box lined with leather. No word on pricing. I mean, what do you price a box? Boxes are everywhere. So is leather. Whatever the price, I’m sure it will be way more then it’s worth.

It also incorporates a technology which uses touch functionality primarily in support of the pen input. Axiotron ends up replacing the original Apple MacBook Pro’s enclosure to accomplish this, voiding the current Apple warranty and replacing it with one of its own.
