AT&T ‘hits’ back at Verizon’s Map for That campaign with an ‘ad’ of its own
Posted on November 18, 2009 | No CommentsBoy, AT&T sure isn't taking Verizon's Map for That campaign too well. After losing a request for an injunction (for now), the company seems to have decided that the only thing to do in the short term is to start advertising right back at Verizon. Unfortunately, it looks like AT&T threw this one together in a hurry, grabbing a bucket of magnets and a board and sticking them into some abandoned warehouse with Luke Wilson and some Apple-ad-style music. Luke didn't even have time to shave! As for the claims made by Luke's magnetic board, it's hard to take issue with them since they don't really say lot. So AT&T's present and accounted for in this newly minted ad war, but Verizon clearly still has the upper hand... though this is clearly just the beginning. Check out the 30 second spot after the break.

DIY: Make your own MagSafe connector
Posted on June 5, 2009 | No Comments
Apple's MagSafe connector is nifty. It's held on by magnets so it's a lot harder to ruin both the connector and notebook if the power cord gets jerked-out unexpectedly. We dug up a DIY guide on how to convert your PC's non-MagSafe adaptor into an ugly, but still working, clone.
