While many consumers are still waiting for their MacBook Pro with Retina display to ship, the folks over at AnandTech have been among the first to get their hands on the coveted device. Having already given the new pixel-dense display, SSD and USB 3.0 some brief comparison tests, the tech blog has now managed to test out just how Microsoft's upcoming Windows 8 OS might look on the marvel that is the 2880 x 1800 LCD.
Podcast listeners and viewers around the world, rejoice, for soon you may have a new way of managing your podcasts on your iPad, iPhone and iPod touch if reports are to be believed.

On Monday, the world got its first look at iOS 6 after it was officially announced by Apple at this year's WWDC event, and of all the features anticipated and discovered, the replacement of Google Maps with the new, Cupertino-engineered offering was easily one of the most exciting.
The My Xbox LIVE app only dropped for Android a couple of days ago (released contemporaneously with a significant update to the iOS iteration), but already, Microsoft has released Kinectimals for Android - rendering it the very first Microsoft game for Google's market-leading mobile operating system.

We live in a world that contains multiple file types, all of which serve their purpose on devices like the iPhone and iPod touch which are capable of doing so many wonderful things.
