Blu-ray Drives For Apple???

Word on the street has it that Blu-ray drives might be making their way to the Apple MacBook Pro family, with Cupertino currently actively talking to Sony about including these drives for future models. Well, if that happens, just make sure you work nearby a power outlet at all times since Blu-ray drives are notorious power guzzlers (judging by first generation models in notebooks), so you might not even get through to halfway your movie before it runs out of juice.

iView Concept -Sweet!

Designer Nuno Teixeira has come up with the iView concept that features a wrap-around display complete with a secondary LCD built right into the back - making it suitable for students as well as those involved in the graphic design field. Why not go for broke in the concept by throwing in a couple more webcams? I’m willing to wager my family jewels that this concept won’t be materialized anytime soon, as the final retail price would be way too exorbitant for anyone.
