I've been looking at getting a Microsoft Surface and was on the fence until they announced that there was a 128GB Pro version that was capable of running full desktop applications. When I saw that, I had to have it! I've been waiting and watching for the release date of February 9th to come around. This device in all it's glory would only be available from 3 locations; The Microsoft store, Staples and, Best Buy. None of these retailers offered the ability of pre-order so, I just had to … [Read more...]

It's been so long since I paid any attention to my own website, I'm surprised it's still here on the 'Interwebs"... Ok, It has been a long time, for sure. My last posts came right when I started a new job working for 'The man". I left the free-for-all, stress-less life of a self employed Computer consultant to dive back into the 'stress-free' … [Read more...]
