It’s strange what you find when looking for something else. I came upon a site where the owner was giving a run down of the problems he has had with his Dell laptop.
He was trying desperately to get something done for his website, and after some software manipulation, decided that the problem was hardware related. [...]
All bets are off now. Windows ‘7’ doesn’t have to be lean and mean. With Intel predicting 12 to 16 cores on the desktop and now Hitachi saying 5Gb will be available on one 3.5” drive by 2010, there’s no problem for Microsoft, except making sure that every machine has a Blu-ray ROM so that [...]
It appears that Steve and Carl are like a couple of mischievous schoolboys, who can’t let something go until they are sure they have either destroyed something, or figured out why they can’t do it.
A notice on Tech Crunch states that ‘the boys’ have been discussing all the different scenarios that might play out if [...]
Ars Technica today has an opinion piece about the cell carriers and ISPs of this nation. It asks if the public ever gets a feeling that these entities don’t really like us. The answer most assuredly is yes, but for different reasons.

Not only does one get the Reader, included is the AIR platform, so that any embedded content will be playable. The question is, ‘Why is this necessary?’ [...]
After reading all the documents on the Microsoft website, along with at least 10 descriptions of the new Equipt software offering, I wrote this yesterday. I have yet to see any explanation of what happens at the end of the subscription period.
Surely Microsoft won’t do anything like Symantec, and try to automatically charge the credit [...]
I used to think that Scientology was one of many ‘religions’ made by men to fleece an unsuspecting public. After reading a piece that appeared last week in the Village Voice, I see I was right, but also wrong.
Scientology has got to be one of the most destructive things ever wrought by man against his [...]
All those who know about these things knew it could not last for long. AMD is a scrappy company that pulled itself up from being a second source for Intel chips to a powerhouse that had Intel worried for more than a few quarters. It was only the inertia of the market that has kept [...]
Seems that the normally carefree people of Australia get really worked up when you mess with their internet access.
