Any Apple user can tell you the myriad of arguments and complaints that they hear regularly from PC die-hards.  I don’t call Windows users fanatics, because they really don’t “love” Windows,  they just refuse to buy into the Apple culture. These same people are usually the same ones...

Ok, so I’m sitting here typing this on my new MacBook Pro laptop when a thought suddenly crosses my tiny little brain.. I wonder if the announcement for the iPad has had any effect on the sales of the MacBook and MacBook Pro laptops as a whole? Whyzzat you ask?? Well Lucy, lemme...

Hesitance. Ever since the dawn of the XM and Sirius radio business models, I’ve always asked myself, “why on Earth would anyone want to pay for radio?“.  After all, I had a six-mile commute to work, and you couldn’t take it inside with you and get a signal, so you’re...

Over the last month, I’ve been using the Dell Vostro A90 (Mini 9) almost exclusively.  Unfortunately, what I discovered is that while it’s a great little box for checking e-mail and the occasional e-Bay browsing, its little 1.6 Ghz Atom processor (even with 2gb of RAM and a fast SSD) simply...

Today was one of those days.  I haven’t been feeling well at all.  Migraine headache that I suspect is brought on by lack of food, which is, in turn brought on by the fact that I was generally not hungry.  Alas, I fell prey to Domino’s new marketing blitz about how they’ve...
