I am one of those that was quite upset about the announcement from RedGate that .NET Reflector would no longer be free. Particularly since it was given to them for free and they have only mucked things up from the original. It was also my...
I really like my HTC HD7 phone. I bought it the day they came out (although I had to visit two or three different places before I could get it). I sure wish I got the OLED display in the deal but overall I’m pretty happy with the phone – although...
Microsoft announced recently that Windows Phone 7 has RTM’d to manufactures. The developer tools will be release September 16th, 2010 and the new marketplace is expected to open the first week of October. I plan to be standing outside of the...
We have all seen the TV commercials of Mac and PC standing there while the Mac makes some funny remark about how unreliable PC is or how much more fun Mac is. We all got a good laugh and I even started recording them before realizing that they were available...
I have been playing with Windows 7 in my VM machine for a few weeks now and have found it to be amazingly fast and lean! So what will keep people from making the leap from XP to Windows 7? Application and hardware compatibility of course! ...

I subscribe to Redmond Press "Redmond Report" which is something of a news channel for Microsoft. The editor was asking for peoples reviews of Chrome so they could do a composite review. Having recently done a post about chrome on my blog I...
Google has done it again! In a completely unexpected (at least by myself) move they have released a browser into mainstream. Frankly, I am quite surprised! Google was such a fan of Firefox that I never thought I would see them in competition. It also...
