Really? Just because it has “antioxidants” it suddenly has a “healthy” glow? I’ll pass. Eat some real cherries instead and have a glass of water.

We recently bought an Apple Time Capsule for backing up or main machines at home. The first thing we did was disable the wireless portion of it since we already have a wireless base station that's performing quite well (we've also been burned by bad Apple wireless products in the past, read: original Graphite Base […]

Congratulations. You probably think you got a bargain scoring that “free” printer from Apple when you bought your last computer. After all, they gave you a $99 MIR with the purchase– what could be wrong with that? Well, first off, if you know me, you know that I think that printers are nothing but a […]

Today, at work. Luckily, I didn't have to deal with this, but kudos to the Civic owner for squeezing in next.

I guess once everyone is able to use Front Row it won't really matter since it will pull data from all sources […]

I began noticing something was fishy a couple of days ago. While at work I was trying to visit certain sites, such as RealNetworks, they were not reachable. Oddly enough, the same sites that were unreachable at work were perfectly fine from home. Turns out Level 3 and Cogent have had a falling out. On […]
