June 21, 2007 By Robert Owen

A while back I got an invite from Kyle Hayes to try out Joost. And, although I don't use it a lot I still think it's pretty cool! The content seems to be getting better and the quality is great!

Why? Microsoft. Why?

May 29, 2007 By Robert Owen

I was looking over the new back-up utility in Windows Vista.. And looked into the help files to see this: Will automatic backups run if my computer is turned off? No. If your computer is turned off during the scheduled backup time, automatic backups will not run. However, the next time you turn on your computer, you will be able to back up your files and resume the normal backup schedule. I just want to know why... Who asked that question once that they needed to put it in the help … [Read more...]
