From Lockergnomie Dan Mowry:
Chris, just wanted to thank you for the Vista reviews. To be honest, I think I’m going to avoid it. I don’t watch high-def tv/video on my computer but some of the DRM that seems to be in there, coupled with the apparent lack of peripheral/driver support makes me nervous. Don’t laugh, [...]
My skill in responding to clients meaningfully without being patronizing got a severe test this week. A senior couple had replaced an aging computer with a new one. The transfer went without hitches. The only warning I gave them was to check out their fax machine to make sure it still worked. They have an [...]
I received a notice yesterday of Zoho’s Notebook launch, along with an offer to be an alpha tester.

I was very much looking forward to using it instead of my dated Intel Camera Pro (which I’ve been using for at least the past five years).

Technology and education go together like peanut butter and jelly, and it makes sense that schools would aim to instruct their students in various aspects of technology since it is the way of the future and these students are the ones who will help to shape it. If kids are educated at an early age [...]
