Sorry for the lack of posts

Sorry that I only made one post yesterday, but my new Dell LCD arrived and I spent some time setting it up and making everything perfect. The monitor is the Dell 1704FPT 17″. My previous monitor was a 15″ and I am just loving that extra screen space. It is really beneficial. I will post [...]

Bill Gates runs like a little girl (video)

MacBook Pro PR Images Fake?

We’ve just been tipped off with some very interesting information about the MacBook Pro on Apples website. The images are quite clearly of a Photoshopped PowerBook G4.

My thoughts about IE 7

I downloaded a *cough* legal *cough* version of IE 7 to test out. I was expecting some big things but I am really disappointed. The biggest annoyance is that the toolbar is messed up.
