MacNotables #1225: Jim Dalrymple On The Samsung Verdict, The Lumia Launch, iPhone Mania and Quantum Leaps
Jim Dalrymple puts forth some final thoughts on the Apple v. Samsung verdict, then turns his attention to the announcement of the Nokia Lumia 920, what it had in common with Microsoft’s Surface announcement, and how iPhone competitors seem to be almost desperate for attention. The apparently impending announcement of the iPhone 5 has garnered an amazing amount of anticipation; Jim talks about the ways Apple succeeds where others fail, the quantum leaps in technology that are part of their DNA, and whether there are any left…anywhere.
(Note: There are some audio problems in spots, but Jim’s is very good. Please pardon the technical difficulties.”)

MacNotables #1224: Ted Landau Dives Into The Library Folder and Likes The Samsung Verdict
Ted Landau approves of the Apple v. Samsung verdict, and tells us why. Then, Ted shows his rebellious side when he explains why it is OK to go against Apple’s wishes and explore the OS X Library folder. With a little caution and a little understanding, it can be very useful to know what is in the folder that Apple wants you to to avoid. Ted tells us what’s hiding there and what you can do with it.

MacJury #1212: Analysis of the Apple v. Samsung Verdict
Members of the MacJury assembled virtually from some very different and unique locations under sometimes adverse circumstances to discuss and dissect the (almost) $1.5 billion verdict awarded to Apple in their patent suit against Samsung. Aspects of the verdict covered included the speed of the decision, the fact that Apple was not cited for any infringements, the probability of an appeal, and more. What this decision means for Google, Microsoft and other tablet makers, who the real winners are, and what it means for us are just some of the questions examined by the panel of Mark Fuccio, Ken Ray, Michael T. Rose and host Chuck Joiner.
