EDIT: as of 3/1/2009, my free license for esXpress expired, and unfortunately – although the GUI interface still lists an available option as “FREE” as far as licensing goes – esXpress will not work in free mode after your trial license expires. They really need to update their GUI to reflect this and not just [...]
Click for larger, more confusing view Virtual Geek has an amazingly insightful post combining multiple presentations and points from representatives from EMC, MVWare, NetApp, Dell/Equalogic, HP/Lefthand, and some other folks in the business. As you can see by the names involved, we’re talking about most every major virtualization storage player in the industry today – [...]
I’ve got an Xbox 360, mostly to become a millionaire in Forza Motorsport 2. Well, a little way’s back, the add-on hard drive failed with an E67 error indicating a bad external hard drive. So, there the Xbox sat, unused. What’s the point when you can’t save that Porsche 911 GT3 you just won? And [...]
So I’m interested in this ’cause I run a Mac at home for sanity’s sake. Gizmodo’s reporting about a particularly nasty (possible) result of hoovering that new copy of iWork ’09 that was announced a few weeks ago: OSX.Trojan.iServices.A.

Notice the Madstad bracket – the first purchase any ‘strom owner needs to make.

You’ll need a MS Live account (otherwise known as a Hotmail account) to retrieve an install key if you can’t find one anywhere else **cough** piratebay **cough** but Microsoft fixed their issues from last week and opened up their most-awaited beta to pretty much all of us. Running it right [...]
EDIT: Microsoft hasn’t head of things like TORRENT FILES, and so their web servers imploded today. Try again next week? If you’re like me and you hate Vista, choosing instead to stick with XP until the bitter end, I think you’ll be happy to see the arrival of Windows 7. After having used Windows 7 [...]
Tilt-shift photography is the process by which an ordinary photo is manipulated to look more like photographs of models. And I have no idea how to do it. But using TiltShiftMaker.com,you can simply upload one of your photos to their website, adjust some things like the area of focus and color enhancement, and then download [...]
Announced today: Picasa is finally available for the Mac. Not that iPhoto wasn’t sort of slick, and made my first introduction to owning a Mac a really fun learning experience… but it’s just that Picasa is world’s better than iPhoto (or any other more expensive option like Lightroom). Fully owning the fact that I’m all [...]
