So that’s it. Now that my family photo site and my blog have been moved over to the new servers, it’s time to decommission the old one. I have a Dell Poweredge 2500 running in my basement that hosted all my toys. This site being one of them. The system was a beast and so [...]
In the past few weeks Chris Pirillo has taken a beating over his need to revert back to Windows XP. I don’t understand why this seems to affect so many people’s lives with such intensity. When I first read the article he posted about his desire to move back to Windows XP, I was just [...]

I have done quite a bit of research into what hardware I have in the machine because Microsoft’s requirements are a lot more stringent [...]
For those of you who have never had a media PC connected to your main television; you’re missing out. It has been almost 2 years since I setup my first Media Center PC and if that thing were to die, so would I. Actually this was one of the harder things to convince my DW [...]
I needed to say this out loud somehow for everyone to read. The possibility of the TechTV alumni coming together on the web to fulfill our geek habit is phenomenally exciting. I along with so many other fans were so disappointed at the demise of our tech portal.
I have an account with UndoTV as I [...]
