Apple expands \'Get a Mac\'

In Brief: Apple has expanded its original "Get a Mac" TV ad campaign to include three new commercials, including "Macs do Windows too," (touting Apple's Boot Camp), "Make amazing stuff" (extolling Apple's iApps) and "Awesome out of the box" (a "plug n' play" solution)--all of which are now available at Apple.com.... Several owners of Apple's new MacBook computers are expressing concerns after noticing that portions of their shiny white notebooks have inexplicably turned shades of orange.... There are new Illustrator CS2-compatible demos of FlexoStepX, the step and repeat software that can create custom die configurations and completely automate the task of stepping, repeating, distorting, and adding printer's marks and job info.... Blackmagic has released new version 5.6 software for all Multibridge and DeckLink products, bringing support for Fusion 5 as well as 720/50p native support for Adobe Production Studio, realtime HDV monitoring for Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0, and performance/stability improvements.... MacPractice has added support for Windows digital radiography and cosmetic imaging software Cadi through the use of Parallels’ Desktop for Mac to its practice management solution for Mac OS X, offering integration and support for OpTime and ScanX phosphor plate systems, Schick, PlanMeca and Sorona sensors, and several Panoramic solutions.
