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. This came after Scott Guthrie, currently a General Manager at Microsoft, recently mentioned the pricing of a MacBook Pro in...

Visual Studio 2008: Nov...

It was formally announced by Microsoft today that Visual Studio 2008 will be released at the end of this month. The only thing I’m going to say at this point is that it seems WAY too soon to me. I’ll make blog posts after the release and we’ll see if my gut feeling was...

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...

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...

More Jeff Zucker Nonsen...

A more detailed version of Jeff Zucker’s comments that I blogged about prior to this entry was released on a web site and one of Jeff’s comments was: “We know that Apple has destroyed the music business — in terms of pricing — and if we don’t take control,...

What's the Deal wi...

I read some quotes by Jeffrey Zucker, the president and CEO of NBC, regarding their deal to sell TV shows on iTunes and frankly I was just absolutely floored. Is this guy for real? How does someone with his level of short-sightedness rise to such a high position? Two of the things Zucker...

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...
