A Quick Observation Comparing Two Versions of the Office

New AirPort

In addition to the iPhone announced today (which looks peachy), there’s also a new AirPort station, which has a very cool feature:

New to AirPort Extreme, AirPort Disk turns almost any external USB hard drive into a shared drive. Simply connect the drive to the USB port on the back of your AirPort Extreme and—voila—all the documents, videos, photos, and other files on the drive instantly become available to anyone on the secure network, Mac and PC alike. It’s perfect for backups, collaborative projects, and more.
