"You're Alway...

After looking at the following on my screen at work for about four minutes I thought of the great line in Spaceballs where the guy says, “Prepare to move out” and the other guy says, “You’re always preparing! Just GO!”.  Seriously though. “Preparing to...

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...

Colts / Chargers 1st Qu...

There are four minutes to go in the first quarter and I’m thinking that the head coach of the Colts needs to take Manning out for a quarter or so and put in the backup QB. Call me radical, but Manning’s head just isn’t in this game (yet). He needs some time to calm down...

Trust: A TiVo, a Spare ...

I own a Toshiba TiVo with built-in DVD burning, and it ships with a 120 GB hard drive. If you set your TiVo to record programs on the lowest possible quality (which is noticeable when you watch it), this amount of space is probably fine. However, when you want to record things at high...

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...

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...

I Know I'm New Her...

…that sure didn’t look like pass interference by the Patriots to me in the 2nd quarter. The guy was in front of the Colt and tried to catch the ball. I know this is my first season as a football fan, but come...
