Can Apple's iPhone success be sustained like the Mac's?

Tech's Bottom Line | Bill Snyderhttp://weblog.infoworld.com/tech-bottom-line/archives/2008/01/_iphones_ipods.html [Tech's Bottom Line | Bill Snyder] Apple can do whatever it wants with the Mac platform, and when it does it very well, as it has with recent Mac PCs and the Leopard OS, the company wins big. But it doesn't have that same freedom on the iPhone -- its dependence on partnerships with AT&T and other carriers means it has to accommodate some of their concerns, perhaps to the iPhone's ultimate detriment.

Can’t wait for Native Mac OS X Open Office?

Plan-B for Software Documentation[Plan-B for Software Documentation] If you are an Apple MAC fan and want to use OpenOffice, you are stuck with a version that needs X Windows, which is reportedly slow and looks and works like an alien in NY. Your alternative is NeoOffice, which has a more integrated look and feel but still is reportedly slow.

Power Mac G5: Any way to switch out case fans so it's quieter?

MacNN Forumshttp://forums.macnn.com/65/mac-pro-and-power-mac/360472/power-mac-g5-any-way-switch/ [MacNN Forums] Is there any way to swap out the fans (maybe for a newer version fan or a newer one of the same fan) to make it quieter? I don't have a fan on the graphics card, and the noise isn't from anything else other than the case fans.
