As you might expect, the main topic for discussion this week was the launch of the updated MacBook and MacBook Pros, with one of the crew becoming an early adopter (twice over!). Here are links to several of the items we discussed:
Firewire 400/800 options:
Belkin 9-Pin to 6-Pin FireWire 800/400 Cable, 6 feet (this link says $40US but it was $30US at the Apple Store)
Sonnet FireWire 400 to 800 Adapter [FAD-824] ($14.95 direct from Sonnet or pay $12 through Office Depot)
We talked about no firewire on the MacBooks but here’s an option:
OWC FireWire/USB Combo ExpressCard/34 Adapter ($45US through Other World Computing – two FireWire and One USB!)
Mac Software Pics
PGP Whole Disk Encryption 9.9 for Mac OS X – with Basic Maintenance – Perpetual
