XPS One – Nice Tr...
Dell announced their XPS One model and I’m a little shocked that the prices are so high. The sticker shock is reduced as you get in to their higher-end models, but for some reason they all only have a 20 inch screen. You can’t go any larger. They’ve obviously tried to...Still Making Waves, Huh...
Today for some reason I saw lots of articles discussing Vista and its adoption (or lack thereof) by the consumer as well as the business user. It’s been almost a year since Vista was released and people who are giving it a shot only recently have kind of re-started a wave of...The Times They Are A Ch...
It’s a very interesting time indeed. Rob Howard, formerly of Microsoft, recently announced that he bought a fifteen inch MacBook Pro to use as his only laptop.

From the time I pointed VMWare’s virtual machine setup dialog to my Windows install media it took a...Halo 3: My First Though...
Besides the script, how exactly is this different from Halo 2 and Halo 1? The graphics don’t seem any better (based on my limited progress through the game), and I expected something a little more than running through the woods killing the same creatures that were in the first two...A Comment on a Leopard ...
I read the article below and while I don’t necessarily share ALL of the writer’s expectations with regard to Leopard over Vista or Apple over Microsoft, he does indicate that Leopard will embarrass Microsoft (and specifically, Vista). I blogged recently about how I...First Impressions...
I bought the family pack of Leopard this evening and only had to wait on line about 25 minutes. 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%...
