  1. Re:iblame imac . . . on iMac Turns 10 · · Score: 1

    Actually, I think iCarly got it right. It refers to her internet show. Doesn't the "i" stand for "internet"? Steve changed it with the launch of the iMac. He started the with iCEO when he first came back to Apple. Then it stood for "interim". Unfortunately, I didn't have any $$ then or I would be in a little different position now. Apple stock was $13 a share! -D

    I think the appropriate statement would be, "Hey y'all, HOLD MY BEER and watch this!"

  3. Get OpenBook 7.1 on Sources of Intelligent Audio for Commute? · · Score: 2, Informative
    This software is targeted to the blind, but would work pretty well for anyone who wants to listen to web pages, newspapers, books etc. on the go. Essentially, you scan your document, or copy and paste it into OpenBook, then save as mp3. It is really simple and pretty quick. It can have a number of different voices, and you can control how fast it speaks, the pitch, etc.

    Check out the product at http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_products/softw are_open.asp/

    I think that the iMac G5 is probably one of the best choices since you can get software/hardware that enables touchscreen capabilities on it... here's one from a company called Troll Touch and another one from Magic Touch ... I've never used these products, but they seem like they would work pretty well. The iMac G5 could be mounted on the wall or sit on an unused (yeah, right) portion of the counter. If a keyboard and mouse is needed, the blue-tooth wireless ones would work pretty well. They could be stored in a drawer or cabinet when not it use.
