Web page layout, authoring and site management suite
by David Nagel
Here's a little trivia for you: How long ago did Macromedia put out its last release of Dreamweaver? Six months? A year? Longer? If you answered "longer," you're right. It was actually a year and a half ago, December 2000. That's a long time for any piece of software to go without a major update. For Web development software, it's an eternity.
Models include gigabit Ethernet, up to 800 MHz processors
by David Nagel
Apple today introduced its new lineup of PowerBook Titanium G4 notebooks, as well as a new "educational" version of the iMac, called the "eMac." The new PowerBook reaches clock speeds of up to 800 MHz, while the new eMac, with a CRT monitor rather than a flat panel, ships with a 700 MHz G4 processor.

by Julieanne Kost
So by now, you've probably heard all about the major features of Photoshop 7.0. You've been awed by the Healing Brush and Patch tool, impressed with the File Browser and Painting engine, thrilled with the enhancements to Liquify and the ability to easily create seamless pattern with the Pattern Maker. Not to mention the ability to define tool presets and workspaces, automatically correct color and publish images to both print and web with terrific ease.
Absolution through MX
by David Nagel
The Mac gods are not as forgiving as some of the other gods currently on the market. For a Mac journalist like me, one little slip can mean the difference between canonization among the great saints and martyrs of Macdom and expulsion from Machalla. And so it is not with a little trepidation that I offer you the following confession, one that, though slight, reveals the dark patch on my AltiVec core that I've been trying to hide lo these many years.

by David Nagel
Apple has unveiled its new "eMac," a version of the iMac computer targeted specifically toward the education market. The new models sport old-school CRT displays and offer Nvidia GeForce2 MX graphics cards. The new models start at $999 for a 700 MHz G4 system.
