Tech Challenges

If you tried to visit my site during the first week of January you may have noticed, well it wasn’t here. At the end of the year I generally assess my web hosting services and make a change.  The migration and updates did not move as smoothly as expected, but I can say that at...

ITouch Too, I Guess

I decided to make this a separate post but you can also see this as a comment on my original post, My Visit to the Apple Side. Please note this is not about the ITouch Second Generation Product. Just continue reading all will be made clear. OK, OK I guess I have no choice. After...

BSoD – I Am Personally Offended

The Blue Screen of Death (also known as a stop error, BSoD, bluescreen, or Blue Screen of Doom) Death and Doom? I don’t know if its that serious but it could definitely feel like it.  If this is not your first visit to my blog you are aware I have mentioned on more than one...

Personal WiFi HotSpot – The MiFi

I just want to slightly open the door to MiFi. As a netbook owner and fan of all things mobile this topic is very interesting to me, I am just not sure if I need it. The concept is simple, connect up to five different mobile devices wirelessly. Use in your home, office, the airport,...

My Visit to the Apple Side-Updated

For many reasons I avoids ALL (update: see my latest comment) Apple related products. Its not that I don’t like Apple as a company, I just don’t like the limitations they put on technology. Example 1. ITUNES, in theory seems like a good product, a wealth of music, movies, podcasts, a few freebies every now...

New Tech Just Around The Corner

As we slowly approach the end of the year it normally brings with it the release of new technology that has been simmering all summer long! Can’t wait! Unfortunately my TREO 750 sent its last text message about a month ago. Now that my trial is over I can speak freely about my current Windows...

The Hard Drive That Never Crashes

Right. Did that title fool you? There isn’t one. So I think backups are a learned experience. Meaning that you have a bad crash, and you learn you need to backup your data. Because just in case you didn’t know, your hard drive at some point will not do what you want it to do. ...

You want me to do what?

So its been a minute, but I have been inspired to write based on a recent support experience.  My Treo 750 is acting weird.  Alarms no longer sound, clock is no longer keeping the right time, battery stopped charging completely, etc.  But I still like my phone. Yes I am well aware it is old,...

HMMM

You ever have one of those moments when you look at the results of a search and you still can’t find what you are looking for.  Did you click on one of those pop-ups that say,’You Have a ‘Virus’ Click Here For a Free Scan? Uh Oh. Did your hard drive do something to you...

MAC TV Ads

I know that anyone that has a TV has seen at least one of these ads with two people representing a MAC and a PC? Whether you own a MAC or PC you have to chuckle a bit because the ads are actually funny. But do they really provide enough information to make the move...
