- Xmod Giveaway
After getting our grubby mitts on the Creative Xmod, we knew, at some point, we'd have to share. So TUAW is giving away one shiny-new Xmod to one shiny-lucky entrant. How do you enter? Simply leave a comment on this post. Just one comment per person, please. No shoving.
For those unwilling to click on the link for Erica's review, the Xmod is an audio enhancer. It is quite nice, either creating a 3d simulation via stereo headphones or speakers, or use "Crystalize" mode to magically enhance those MP3's clogging up your machine. Bottom line, it's pretty neat!
Basic rules apply: open to 18 and over only, 50 US states only, entries are comments to this post only, etc. Full rules after the jump.Continue reading Xmod Giveaway

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/03/12/xmod-giveaway/#comments - Blast from the Past: Apple acquires NeXT
Filed under: Retro Mac
It's December 20, 1996. Apple has just acquired NeXT in a $400 million deal that brings Steve Jobs back to Apple. Jobs will act as an "advisor" to CEO Gil Amelio, bringing his charisma to the team led by Amelio and Ellen Hancock.
The deal offers $350 million in cash and stock as well as covering about $50 million of NeXT's debts. Apple suggests that it will start shipping products using NeXT's new OS some time in 1997. After abandoning Copland, some had predicted Apple would acquire the Be operating system.
RixStep hosts a copy of the early 1997 letter sent to NeXT customers regarding the Apple/NeXT Merger as part of its Red Hat Diaries. In this letter, Gil Amelio promises to continue to develop and enhance WebObjects and to provide cross-platform support for QuickTime. He looked forward to WebObjects running on Power Macs in short order.
