-With the help of the LogMeIn app (and other remote desktop apps), it makes the perfect sized slate to work on the go.
-With something this big, and the de-emphasis on being a phone, backgrounding should be enabled for all apps.
-While HTML5 will replace a lot of Flash use, why the continued hate? At least let [...]
As much as I didn’t want to believe it, my beloved 24″ iMac that I use at work finally started having harddrive issues. I couldn’t pinpoint if this was an OSX issue (firmware updated, etc) or an actual hardware issue, but the internal harddrive started acting like it was going to sleep all the time, [...]
I’ve upgraded my MBP to Snow Leopard and running the latest beta of VMWare Fusion. At first I didn’t notice any issues until this week when I started getting an error saying “The device on /dev/vmnet0 is not running”, meaning it couldn’t bridge with any network connection to allow my VM to get on the [...]
So we finished our office upgrade a few weeks back. After a couple rough patches, everything seems to be working fairly well now. Here is a quick rundown.

This doesn’t include the myriad of side projects we are all working on.
At my [...]
I’ve been trying out Windows 7 off and on through the different versions over the last few months. I haven’t used it exclusively but I’ve meddled in it, trying out 7000, 7057, 7077, and now 7100/RC. I won’t go into any details on Windows 7 itself since there are plenty of reviews and such out [...]
Since finally building my own home machine (instead of just relying on a laptop from work after selling my Macbook), I have spent a bit of time coming up with a backup process. In my new machine, I have two 640GB SATA drives in a RAID 1, so that gives me performance and the redundancy [...]
I still have yet to pickup on this Netbook craze. Everyone is all “oooh” and “ahh” over these pint-size laptops, with their cramped little keyboards, sub 10″ screens, and custom linux distros that only do a few things. Why? Does anyone really need to be glued to their news feeds or Gmail to require a [...]
