Here's a free tip from me for all those who are willing to listen. During these cold winter days, run some very resource hungry applications on your Mac notebook and within five minutes it will be heated enough to allow you to warm your hands. Works best if you have a MacBook Pro. :D

Get the best out of your Mac
Aayush says a resource hungry application running on a Mac will produce enough heat to keep you warm during winter.

Proud MacBook Pro owners tell that the left hand side of the trackpad produce all the heat and nil heat on the other side. Also they say, it's not necessary to run any resource hungry application, using your MBP for 10 minutes is sufficient to keep you cozy when the temperatures dip.


I've seen her in some movie. Can't recollect which movie...

That girl seems to be the chick from heroes when she was young. Isn't it?
Damn! I was so proud of myself for having recognised her. :sad:

What the heck is wrong with Apple's share prices? $129!! Why is it crashing!

I know the whole market is falling but Apple has no reason to suffer the same fate. :confused:

If someone here is still in any doubt over how thin the MacBook Air really is, you have to watch this funny video. It does not even show the MacBook Air but trust me, you'll gain some perspective.

Apple stock at $129? This is seriously a time to buy that Apple stock.

Anyone know how I could get my hands on some?

Anyone tried this? Gonna get it and see what it's like. Maybe for some light image editing...

Frankly, I'm tired of all these image editors for Mac OS X cropping up all over the place. How many does a person need, honestly! And is there something wrong with Photoshop that needs fixing?

is there something wrong with Photoshop that needs fixing?

Ya, it's price. Too bad you don't have something free like Paint.net on your Mac OS Platform. That's the best free Photoshop alternative which works gr8

The first thing I did this morning having my cup of green tea was downloading Iris. I'm gonna install and try it out.

Because Photoshop is a Pro software and it takes time to master. I've using it for a year and I know about 1% or less stuff of Photoshop. I still Google for things which I want to do to my images.

Yeah, there's one thing that need fixing. I can't afford $xxx for my business. We all know how much you paid for Photoshop, but those things can't be done for Businesses. Didn't you read that Adobe is snooping on CS3 users? In fact even home users need to fret.

Another thing is, if my needs is limited, then why go for a complicated app? According to ProBlogger [14 Essential Mac OS X Applications for Bloggers] - "My blogging changed the day I installed ImageWell. I use it to create most of the images that you see here on ProBlogger. It’s fantastic taking an image, doing quick crops, adding words, putting shadows around images, taking them and making them have curved corners etc. Sure you can do this in Photoshop - but ImageWell is much lighter weight, quick to use and is easy to use."

Paint.net is for Windows only.

Seashore is the next best to Photoshop of the Image editors I've tried. It's GIMP based, only that you don't need X11. I was using that in all the time I was running Tiger.

Photoshop needs some interface changes. I realise the palettes are now much better organised and stuff, but it still carries the same sort of interface that it did in it's early days. If only Adobe could maybe fuse the interface of Lightroom, but keep the functionality of Photoshop.

Of course the Pro users will complain cause everything is different, but maybe for one or two versions they could provide the option to use either the old-style interface or new one. Just to smooth things in.
