Comment on Microsoft Now Offers 30-Day Free Trial of Office for Mac by My-iFamily.com

I am NOT a fan of Microsoft, but I have to give them kudos to this version of Office for Mac. It is 1000 times better than the previous version. I'm torn between using iWord and Office now. I'm accustomed to using Office, but I really like Apple's approach to everyday tasks in iWork. I just wish iWork would mature a little faster. The #1 way for Apple fans to BRAG! | www.My-iFamily.com

Xbox Modding Trial Dismissed

It seems the harsh words from District Court Judge Philip Gutierrez on Wednesday had their intended effect; prosecutors in Matthew Crippen's Xbox modding case have now dismissed the indictment. Quoting Wired: "Witness No. 1, Tony Rosario, was an undercover agent with the Entertainment Software Association. He told jurors Wednesday that he paid Crippen $60 in 2008 to modify an Xbox, and secretly videotaped the operation. Rosario had responded to Crippen’s advertisement on the internet and met Crippen at his Anaheim house. All of that had been laid out in pretrial motions. But during his testimony, Rosario also said Crippen inserted a pirated video game into the console to verify that the hack worked. That was a new detail that helped the government meet an obligation imposed by the judge that very morning, when Gutierrez ruled that the government had to prove Crippen knew he was breaking the law by modding Xboxes. But nowhere in Rosario’s reports or sworn declarations was it mentioned that Crippen put a pirated game into the console. ... [Prosecutor Allen Chiu] conceded he never forwarded that information to the defense."
