Indoor pictures of Berlin Apple Store surface before grand opening

Pictures from inside the soon-to-open Berlin Apple Store have begun surfacing after the store allowed a certain few inside to take a sneak peak. Above and below are some of the pictures taken by Macerkopf, and they show exactly what we expected – a minimalistic, Apple Store design. The usual, yet still beautiful. The store, reportedly, has 200 employees…

iPad 4 versus Surface graphics benchmark

The release of GLBenchmark 2.7 and DXBenchmark means that we can finally compare the graphic performance of Apple’s iPad 4 against Microsoft’s Surface Pro. Pitting the iPad’s A6X processor against the Surface Pro’s Core i3-3317U chip with on-board HD 4000 graphics brought with it some rather interesting results. Microsoft’s surface was able to deliver…

iFixit claims iPad is one of the hardest tablets to repair

If you’ve ever seen any iFixit teardown videos, you can tell that they know what they’re doing when it comes to taking apart devices. For those of us that are less gifted with this skill, iFixit has released its rankings of tablet repairability and which tablets are the easiest to fix. Unfortunately for Apple fans out there, the iPad did not fare too well…

Report: Apple is done, Surface is in according to teens

When you hear “Microsoft Surface”, what do you first think of? Personally, I think of how the Surface hasn’t been selling well. It is the “wannabe” iPad from the folks up in Redmond, and it hasn’t amounted to what Microsoft thought it would. However, according to a new report, the iPhone and other Apple products are “no longer cool” in the realm of…

Was Mr. Gates The Grinch to his kids’ Christmas this year?

Bill Gates created a decent amount of hatred and anger towards him over the holiday season this year. Not because of Microsoft itself or indeed any of his business endeavors. No, everyone is so annoyed with Mr. Gates because of the gifts he gave to his kids for Christmas this year. Perhaps a petty spark for an argument, but it does raise a good question…

The “NIBIQÜ” is a Surface-like keyboard cover for your iPad

The NIBIQÜ is a new project over on Kickstarter that has a fairly neat, and to be honest, no brainer, idea. Make a keyboard cover like the Surface’s for the iPad. The Surface, as you probably know, is Microsoft’s foray into the modern tablet market, and it has a nice cover that doubles as a keyboard on it. It will come in 5 colors, and you can get an…

Microsoft Stores nowhere near as popular as Apple’s on Black Friday

Is it wrong that I find this hilarious? Perhaps. But still, Microsoft’s relatively new store in Lone Tree’s Park Meadow Mall was embarrassingly empty last Friday. Traditionally, the busiest and most frantic day of consumer action of the year. A video shot and edited by MacWeekend.com shows Microsoft’s store opposite an Apple retail unit. If the video…

Oprah: “Love that SURFACE…” sent from my iPad

Erm. You know Oprah totally loves her Windows 8 “SURFACE!” She loves it so much, she bought 12 as Christmas gifts! She loves it so much, she tweet her love for it from a Surface. Oh wait, no she didn’t. She tweeted about it from her iPad. It’s possible that Oprah actually loves her iPad more, but, she’s part of Windows’ huge marketing effort. As…
