cnet.com has resource pages for Mac users, iPhone and iPod users. You may find them useful, so here’s a description, from my personal point of view.
Apple Mac computers
This page has news, reviews, downloads, forums, pictures, bideos and a page about accessories. The page itself is a blog with Apple Mac OS X News, which may or may not be interesting to the rest of us.
Reviews, on the other hand, have cnet.com’s regular reviews… not too long or complex, but with the basic info, with some comparative testing and a pretty complete thumbnail sketch of what’s new, what’s missing, and what does or doesn’t work, and why. A range of prices is given, with a link to selected vendors
Downloads are limited to a few utilities, but there’s a link to a much more complete catalogue. I still prefer Versiontracker .com to see what’s new, but this is a valuable resource.
cnet.com has a number of Mac-based Forums, on Mac hardware, OS, software and more.
Pictures didn’t exist, and the only ideo was a cnet first look at the new Mac Pro.
Accessories shows some of Apple’s accessories. Nothing to get too excited about, in my opinion.
Mac OS X Leopard
The Mac OS X Leopard page has the same kind of layout. I find the news to be a little more interesting, but the forum posts shown are pretty old. No pictures. The video is a first look at Leopard, which is a bit dated. No accessories, which makes sense..
iPod
This page is newsworthy, but forums posts show are even older. The video worked, and was a a first look at the iPod Classic. The accessories are much more interesting, not just Apple products. Speakers and headsets are shown today.
iPhone
This page seems a little more timely, with a full review, and a video, of the new iPhone 3G S. The news is up to date, reviews are the usual good ones, and the downloads are iPhone apps. Forum posts come from the Cell Phone forums, accessories are headsets today.
