Amazing Technology 3

A coworker sent me a link today, and my immediate thought was of Minority Report. Watch this video and you will understand. Here’s a YouTube video of Jeff Han, one of the developers of this new multi-touch screen technology, given at the 2006 TED conference. On a smaller scale, this is similar stuff to the [...]

Take a Bite of the Apple 1

The band known for their apple logo appears to be in talks with the company known for their apple logo. This could be a huge coup for Apple Computers, and the iPod/iTunes market, given the recent release of the Zune. I would be one of the crazies looking to pony up the cash for a [...]

To Zune or Not To Zune 3

As some are aware, Microsquish released their “iPod killer” today, named Zune. This is what CNN has to say. The best is when the female anchor rhetorically asks why she would want to buy the large, clunky Zune when she just bought the small, sexy iPod Shuffle. Good times. [tags]iPod, Zune[/tags]

Just like a circuit breaker 3

I made the switch today. That’s right, I joined the growing legions of people switching from Windows to Macintosh. What did I get, you may ask? I decided to go small. So far things seem to be going great. I didn’t really do a lot with it tonight. Just got it setup, including the installation [...]

Coincidence or Price Fixing 1

Today Apple introduced their new MacBook Pro and an update to the iMac model. These are the first two systems to use the Intel processors that Apple announced they are switching to back in June 2005. A little history lesson. In 1978 Intel released the 8086 processor. This is the processor that “fathered” the 286/386/486 [...]

Free Software List 0

I’ve started a page (also available off to the side) with a list of my favorite FREE software. I got the idea from here. Leave me comments as to your favorite free software, and maybe I’ll add it to the list

Steve Jobs is Smart 0

If he was Quaker I’d say, “This Friend speaks my mind.”
