Here are 12 reasons by Dr. Mac regarding why college students should by macs insted of PC’s.
It’s back-to-school time again. So if you’re about to send your kid off to college with a new computer, here are some reasons to make that computer a Mac:
1. Issues are the last things a kid needs at college and Macs have fewer issues with viruses, malware, and icky stuff like that.
It has also been my experience that Macs have fewer issues with almost everything else, as well. This was my daughter’s first year away at college and she required technical help from me only once.
2. Most Macs sold today have a built-in video camera and iChat software. So it’s easy to communicate by video, audio, or even plain old text chat. Of course this assumes that you have a Mac of relatively recent vintage.

I think his right and nothing to argue with that Windows sucks and all the errors you get. On my experience I used Vista for like an hour and a half and I got like 10 errors and was extremely slow that I had to take my ipod and listen to music wile Vista responded. Needless to say it was a very good laptop. Intel core 2 duo, 2gb RAM and more. So why buy a Windows laptop for your kid if you could buy a mac? Why give them a box of problems if you could give them a box of solutions?

I have used in many occasions the iPhone calculator even the new one on the 2.0 Update, and it has never been the love of my life. Today I found on the App Store a new app called Kalculator which if found useful. I bought it and tried it and can say its money well spent. The “single column numeric spreadsheet” as the developers calls it, is a great Kalculator to have when you are on the go. It stores up your history, its easy to use, very effective, responsive, simple kalculator and last but not least great graphic interface. I see the default scientific calculator on the iPhone and I wonder why so much junk and functions if this should be a on the go calculator for fast equations and what we really need is to see our previews equations and not a single line cal. If you want a good scientific cal buy a freaking Texas instrument guys. I want to see an engineer trying to solve a complex equation on the original iPhone scientific cal. its f**** impossible since we have no way of seeing our previews sums and equations. It also brings great features like when you tap with a single finger you bring the result up, when you tap with two finger you bring up the equation, and if you slide your finger it gives you the option to delete a single equation. I think this is kind of neat. I recommend this Kalculator to anyone who likes a great simple on the go calculator.

PEOPLE I KNOW YOUR DESPERATE FOR MONEY BUT COME ON!!!
I found an App for the iPhone that costs $999.99 and is 0.1MB. I Am Rich is an App that show a red ruby. The company states that buying this is only to demonstrate that you can afford such luxury. What I think is who will be stupid enough to buy this app that only shows a …. photo of a ruby and has no other functions. Here are some screenshots.

I have discovered that Movistar Colombia (finally) has posted a teaser of the New iPhone 3G. When you enter the page the announcement appears. You can register and add your info so they can have you up to date on the iPhone launch. Comcel made that announcement a few days after the iPhone 3G was announce by Steve Jobs at the WWDC at San Francisco on June 9th.
RUMORS: We have been hearing that the launch date may be on August 20. Less than a month we think.
More good news to come, Apple has launch an App Store in Colombia already and its working perfectly with Colombian credit cards. I have used mine and bought several Apps and has been a great experience, but iTunes only lets you access the App Store and not the music or video store. I was worried regarding the App Store in Colombia since Apple has lots of problems with international credit cards. You can uses the Colombian App Store without worries its a safe place to buy on the internet.
Here are some are some screenshots we captured on Movistar.
