VMWare Fusion on Mac...
At the suggestion of my buddy Brad, I set up a Windows machine under VMWare Fusion (as opposed to Parallels, which is what I’ve used up until now). I am absolutely amazed. From the time I pointed VMWare’s virtual machine setup dialog to my Windows install media it took a...Great Mod for the Dock ...
I know I’m not the first to blog about this, but my good pal Brad Wilson (the DotNetGuy) told me about a single command you can execute that turns the dock from this: (which is visually impressive for a day or two, then it just looks cluttered because of all the eye candy they put...Leopard iChat Video Con...

There were about 200 people ahead of me, but somehow they were able to move those people through the store very quickly. Interesting thing to note was that when I had made my way up through 75%...A Market Share Surprise...
I read the following paragraph today and I couldn’t believe it: “The increase for Apple puts it over 6.3 percent market share in the United States, behind Dell (28 percent) and HP (24.3 percent). Toshiba (5.2 percent) and Gateway (5.2 percent) round out the top...October 26th: Leopard...
I was delighted to finally read that the official release date for Mac OS X Leopard is Friday October 26th. The Engadget story mentions the pricing: $129 for a single license, $199 for a 5-license family pack. It then goes on (in a bit of sarcasm) and mentions how there is no upgrade...
