I rarely post anything about technology anymore, which may seem odd for an IT guy. There’s just so many folks already doing that sort of thing, I just don’t feel that I can add much more to the conversation already taking place. And besides, I’m more into the management of technology these days and [...]
Apple’s "Get a mac" campaign has been sprouting up all over the internet. Here’s another banner ad campaign from Apple. And for my money, given a choice between Vista or Apple, I’m going with Apple.
Perhaps you remember the introduction of the iPod Nano and the Freist song 1234 that went along with it… we’ll she just performed that song on the Grammies. And look at the MacAir… New Soul by Yael Naim is the top rated song on iTunes. And while Justin Long (the Mac guy) and John Hodgman [...]

Well, it only lasted a day using CrossOver. Everything was fine at home, but once I got to work I quickly realized I was a more advanced user of Outlook and IE 6 than CrossOver could handle. No, I’m not bashing the product – CodeWeavers is very upfront about this not being a [...]
So it's been a few months on the mac now with boot camp and I've found myself spending lots of time, too much time, in XP, but not anymore. Today I backed up my XP data, erased the partition and reinstalled a fresh version of OS X, not because I had too, but because [...]
