For those people who said I’m too demanding and/or mean to my younger brother, I’ve got proof to show otherwise. Being the NICE and nerdy brother that I am, I hooked Ricki up with a Dell Mini 9 netbook yesterday afternoon after having ordered it from Sam’s Club in December. But why stop at that? […]

Earlier today, Steve Jobs stated that he will be taking an extended medical leave until the end of June to attend to his health. Jobs’ medical condition, which was previously labeled as a simple hormonal imbalance, proved to be “more complex than originally thought.” Word about his leave spelled doom for investors; Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) […]

Apple’s (NASDAQ: AAPL) stock nose-dived right at the conclusion of the Phil Schiller’s keynote at this year’s Macworld. Why? Maybe it was the missing Apple desktop (iMac, Mac mini, and Mac Pro) upgrades which are so desperately needed. Or maybe it was a lack of updating the community about Snow Leopard’s status. Oh, and to top it […]

With a multitude of rumors preceding next week’s Macworld 2009 expo, I started to wonder what type of product Apple could release that would be “perfect” for me. Having been heavily engrossed in the field of technology, I’ve come across my share of gadgets over the years; however, all of them seemed to lack a […]

As a student studying the natural sciences, I find it interesting to see how our current “knowledge” came to be. We’re all familiar with the musings of ancient Greek philosophers and the ground-breaking thinking of 20th century scientists, but how exactly did all of this unfold? I see the advancement as follows:

Extraterrestrial Life

We’ve all seen extraterrestrial life portrayed through the media. Movies like “E.T.” and “Alien vs Predator” have attempted to narrow down the abstract idea of extraterrestrials into a more detailed, visual depiction of what we should expect from our “out of town” friends. But the question is still on the table – are we really […]

Most of you are familiar with domain name extensions like .com, .net, and .gov. In addition to these are extensions which are specific to countries (.us – USA, .uk – Great Britain, .ca – Canada, .cn – China, and so on). Knowing this, I decided to exercise the ridiculous nerdy yet creative side of my […]

I await the the day when the term “compatible” will become obsolete. The day where you won’t need ten different cables to connect various peripherals to your desktop/notebook. Where corporate firms no longer have a say in what computer users can or cannot do with their operating systems. Where software of any kind will run […]

Cable Broadband Is Not Enough

I’m addicted to the Internet. Aside from the conventional tasks associated with the Internet, I need it for hosting a variety of servers, remotely accessing all my files, music stores, and communicating with the outside world. Just like a spouse, it’s the first thing I wake up to and the last thing I bid farewell […]
