A Day in Paradise

We are in the process of re-doing our office, and are going to hang three 50″ plasmas from a triangular bracket hanging in the center of the office.
After scouring the net for good deals on the Panasonic 50″ plasmas we wanted, we came up with 2 final options.
1. Buy from some online store […]

I haven’t heard anything but pain from users of 8100s and 8800s. One of the guys I work with had to send his back 3 times before he got one that worked. The other guy is on his 2nd phone.
Stella has the 8100 ‘Pearl’ and I just got off of an 1 hour and […]

that reminds me, I upgraded rockbox on my iriver h340! Been about a year since I’ve upgraded… the movie player is pretty nice. unfortunately doom seems to lock it up.

CD Player region free hack.
The ultimate video conversion tool.
These two items have no connection, I’m just in the market for a good region-free dvd player that I can buy in the US so I won’t have a problem bringing the hundreds of region 2 dvds over. Any suggestions?

I’m looking for good hardware based security appliance. So far I’ve talked to the guys at Astaro and their products look pretty nice. I just need to make sure that I’ve seen all the options.
IronPort
Barracuda
And then all of these
Anyone have any favorites?

a chat I had with some of the lurkers on #phpc

Stella’s words when I showed her Apple’s new ipod nano line up.
As everyone has already heard Steve announced a nice new line-up of products, and for the first time in a while I’m pretty happy with what they are offering.
The conversation went something like this:
“The pink one is 4 gigs, for another $50 you […]

athlon-reviews
Pretty nice reviews on all things AMD… I haven’t had an intel chip in YEARS, doubt if I’ll ever move from AMD. Maybe when I get my powerbook

So I’ve always been a windows fanboy. But seeing this demonstration of Quicksilver for mac makes me rethink my previous statement of jumping onto the Vista bandwagon as soon as it’s released. Quicksilver is exactly the way I work in the command line, but so much more powerful.
Vista: probably around $400 for Pro version vs. […]

Nikon D50/D70 vs Canon Rebel XT Shootout
I’m looking at upgrading my s100 to a digital SLR. I played with Mike’s on Sunday and I am totally sold on getting an upgrade.

Taking these kinds of pictures is worth whatever the cost.
I checked out this review on the difference between the Nikon and Canon low end digital […]

YouTube - Crazy Multi-Input Touch Screen
very, very cool!

For a company that’s all about marketing Project Origami was a very lame attempt of the Applesque  “don’t say anything and surprise everyone” guerilla marketing technique. The little hype that was generated when it broke on scoble’s blog an other places, was totally killed when it seems that MS couldn’t stand the pressure and just […]
