Split Off A Tab:
If you find you have too many tabs, a quick way to split them off into new windows is to drag the tab off the tab bar. When you do this a small, transparent, thumbnail will appear. When you release the mouse a new window will open with you desired website. You can then proceed to surf the web.

WWDC 09:
Apple has updated its 13" aluminum MacBook,
rebranding the model as part of its MacBook Pro line. The new model
offers the same non-user-replaceable battery found in the 17"
MacBook Pro and adds a FireWire 800 port and an SD card slot.
Pricing begins at $1199, a $100 drop over the previous entry-level
price point, and all models include backlit keyboard.
The new 13-inch MacBook Pro is a significant upgrade at a lower
price than the original aluminum MacBook it replaces. With the same
sleek and durable design popular with consumers, students and
professionals, all 13-inch MacBook Pro models now include a seven
hour built-in battery, an SD card slot, a FireWire 800 port, an
illuminated keyboard and an improved LED-backlit display with 60
percent greater color gamut.
Hard drive and RAM options for the 13" notebook are the same as in
the new 15" MacBook Pro, topping out at 500 GB and 8 GB
respectively. The new MacBook models offer the following price
points and features:
- $1199. 13" MacBook Pro. 2.26GHz. 2GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 9400.
160GB HD. Firewire
- $1499. 13" MacBook Pro. 2.53GHz. 4GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 9400.
250GB HD. Firewire
Apple is now reserving the "MacBook" name for the white
polycarbonate model. The new MacBook is available
now.
Apple also announced that its iPhone OS 3.0 will
launch on June 17th, just prior to the release of the new iPhone 3G
S. The upgrade will be free for all iPhone users, and will be
priced at $9.95 for iPod touch users. While many of the features of
iPhone OS 3.0 were previewed at Apple's media event in March,
several additional features and clarifications were mentioned
during today's Worldwide Developers Conference keynote.
- MMS: While the inclusion of multimedia messaging in iPhone OS 3.0
was discussed at Apple's previous media event, Apple revealed the
MMS will not be available for AT&T customers until "late
summer", as much as several months after the launch of the new
operating system. A number of other wireless carriers throughout
the world will be supporting MMS at launch.
- Internet Tethering: At its previous media event, Apple chose not
to focus on tethering, addressing it only in a Q&A period by
saying that while the functionality is being built into the iPhone
OS 3.0, cooperation from carriers would be needed in order to
enable it. During the keynote, Apple announced that tethering via
USB and Bluetooth will be offered on a number of carriers at
launch, although AT&T will not be supporting it for the time
being.
- "Find My iPhone": A newly-advertised feature only for MobileMe
subscribers allows customers to track the location of their lost
iPhone, send alerts to the device, and perform remote wipes for
data security. If later found, wiped iPhones can then be restored
by syncing with
iTunes.
Apple also announced that the new iPhone 3G S
will launch on June 19th in the United States, Canada, France,
Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK. Launches will occur
one week later in an additional six countries, with many more
launches around the world coming over the next few months.
Appearing almost identical to the iPhone 3G, the iPhone 3G S will
be available in both black and white and be priced at $199 for 16
GB models and $299 for 32 GB models for new and qualifying AT&T
customers in the United States. Apple will also continue to offer
the 8 GB iPhone 3G, priced at $99 for qualified AT&T
customers.
Apple introduced the new iPhone 3G S as the fastest, most powerful
iPhone yet, packed with incredible new features including improved
speed and performance -- up to twice as fast as iPhone 3G -- with
longer battery life, a high-quality 3 megapixel autofocus camera,
easy to use video recording and hands free voice control. iPhone 3G
S includes the new iPhone OS 3.0, the world's most advanced mobile
operating system with over 100 new features such as Cut, Copy and
Paste, MMS, Spotlight Search, landscape keyboard and more.
The iPhone 3G S contains many of the features that had been rumored
including Digital Compass, Video Recording, Voice Control, 3
megapixel camera with autofocus and faster internet speeds.
Apple has also posted a guided tour of the new iPhone 3G S.
The big remaining issue is how pricing for existing iPhone 3G
owners will be. When the iPhone 3G was released, AT&T did allow
previous iPhone owners to buy-in at the subsidized price, but the
circumstances were different as the original iPhone had never been
subsidized.
Existing iPhone 3G owners may have to pay approximately $200 over
subsidized pricing to
upgrade:
Apple also announced that Mac OS X 10.6 Snow
Leopard will launch in September and will be priced at only $29 for
current OS X 10.5 Leopard users. Alternatively, a $49 family pack
will also be available. Meanwhile, Tiger users with Intel machines
will be able to purchase a Mac Box Set containing Snow Leopard,
iLife '09, and iWork '09 for $169 for a single license or $229 for
a family pack.
Apple offered a preview of Snow Leopard at the Worldwide Developers
Conference keynote, highlighting many of the next-generation
operating system's features. Apple touted a streamlined
installation process (45% faster and 6 GB smaller) and speed
improvements for a number of applications including Mail, Safari 4,
and Spotlight. Snow Leopard also brings support for Microsoft
Exchange Server to Mail, iCal, and Address Book.
Finally, Apple promoted Snow Leopard's ability to use Grand Central
Dispatch and OpenCL standards to allow applications to more fully
harness the power of multi-core processors and to take advantage of
graphics processing power for general purpose computing.
Apple also announced the launch of Mac OS X Server Snow Leopard,
scheduled for release in September at a price of $499, including
unlimited client licenses on Mac, Windows, and
Linux.
