About a month ago my desktop machine gave up the ghost and I broke down and bought a Mac for myself, the 20″ Intel-based iMac. Holy crap! This is a sweet machine. I’m a Linux fan-boy from way back, but there’s just no arguing with something that is this clean and tightly [...]
I went to TCF this morning. TCF used to be a great place for finding old/rare/etc computers and parts, but not any more apparently. All that was there were ricer PCs and people trying to pawn off total crap, like old Gateways, for far too much. Every single computer I saw [...]
The stereo in my car can play mp3 CD’s and use the id3 info in the files to display the artist/title/etc. I decided to grab a bunch of mp3’s from my iTunes library and burn them to CD for listening on my long work commute. The CD played perfectly, but everything was showing [...]
Okay, it’s blatant astroturfing, but I don’t care. The company I work for is about to release our new backup product for VMware ESX Server, and it is pretty bad-ass if I do say so myself.
As I mentioned earlier, I got a Nokia 770.
I decided I would try my hand at doing some development on this thing, ostensibly as a potential solution for a client. The question was, what was I going to use as a programming language? The 770’s OS is Linux, which certainly doesn’t lack in [...]
I got a Nokia 770. This thing is awesome. That’s it. That’s all I have to say. I’ve started doing some development on it, and I really like it. I’ll post more when I have more to say.

Okay, I love Google, and I love VW’s, so how could this be a bad thing?
My favorite quote?: Garrett French of Search Engine Lowdown comments, “So can I get free [...]
I did something cool and fun today. We had this old, dead, doorstop of a hardware firewall at the office called a “WatchGuard Firebox II”. Cost something along the lines of $12,000 when it was new. They go for about $40 on ePay now, and nobody is bidding. Ron hands it [...]
I’ve had Sirius satellite radio for almost a year now. Let me just get this out of the way first. GO GET ONE RIGHT NOW! I don’t want to hear any whining about how it’s too expensive, or why should I pay for satellite radio when terrestrial radio is free?

Okay, as those of you who know me know, I’m an avid gamer and my gaming time has been consumed with MMORPGs for over two years now (mainly WoW). If you play these kinds of games, you know there are always a lot of jerks in game who eventually get banned, either temporarily or permanently, [...]
