Add a boot menu to your Boot Camp’ed Mac

Tired of holding down ‘option’ every time you use your BootCamp partition or forgetting to switch using the Startup Disk app?
If there’s anything worse than rebooting to quickly launch your OS, then coming back to find you are in the wrong OS again, it has to involve bleeding from an orifice.

Fortunately though, there is a solution. An enterprising fellow by the name of Christoph Pfisterer has created an application called ‘rEFIt‘, which allows you to install a graphical menu on your Intel Mac that lets you choose which OS to boot each time the system starts.

Apple to charge for 802.11n unlocking on Intel Macs?

AppleInsider reports that Apple is going to impose an 802.11n unlocking fee on Intel Mac owners:

Essentially, later model Macbooks and MB Pros have shipped with the capability to use the forthcoming 802.11n spectrum. However, it is an ‘unofficial’ addition not touted in any product literature.
While it’s only $5 to download the firmware update, it seems rather cheap of Apple to charge for it. But, as the article points out, they have to charge *something* to circumvent possible legal issues.
Perhaps they’ll include a free $5 iTunes gift certificate in the download.
