Recently, I booked a last minute trip to Northern California for a week. Whenever I travel, I always struggle with what I will want to have on hand while away. I try to travel as light as possible, whenever possible. For this trip, I decided that I was going to start by leaving my laptop…
As many of you know, I’m a big fan of Crumpler bags. I have one for practically every situation I could need one for. I recently had the chance to ‘trade up’ my 7 Million Dollar Home for a Brazillion Dollar Home (they have the funnest names for their bags): Basically, someone bought a bag…
I took the plunge this past week and bought a 15″ MacBook Pro. This was mostly due to the increasing amount of video and photography I’ve been doing lately and needed a bit more (okay a lot more) horsepower under the hood. One thing that I’ve always wondered about, is that card slot in the…
This is a pretty clever (and well done) parody of the MacBook Air commercial featuring the ThinkPad X300. It’s (the X300) definitely a decent ultraportable/subnotebook/fitsinanenvelope computer….it just doesn’t run OSX which is why I sold my eeePC. via TUAW
As in I’ve had it for 12 hours….not a 12 hour long review….although there are a lot of pictures. Obviously I haven’t had it long enough to really put it through it’s paces but here’s a bunch of photos and a few thoughts. As with all Apple products, the packaging alone is a fantastic customer…
As I expected, my MacBook Air arrived today ahead of the projected shipping time and before my friend who ordered earlier than me and paid extra for faster shipping. I did have mine shipped to the office and he had it shipped to his house in Port Coquitlam so that may have been the difference….
Impatiently waiting for this thing to arrive. At least it’s been shipped a few days ahead of schedule…although I appear to have missed the cutoff but is expected (by Apple) to be delivered on Monday, Feb 4th. I must be looking forward to that ‘new Apple product’ smell you get when you open the package….I…
So yesterday, I said to not buy anything from Apple because today they’d be possibly announcing some new products. Well they did indeed announce a few new things and I bought one of them, the MacBook Air: It had been long rumoured that Apple would release a sub-notebook and I had guessed that it would…
I think I have a problem. Is it weird for a guy to like gadget bags? I think I have a bag/pouch/container for just about everything gadget I own. I guess I like to protect my stuff. I especially like Crumpler bags. The latest one I bought a few months back was the Crumpler Keystone…
The other night after DemoCamp, kk+ asked me about my eeePC and how it might compare to the OLPC (aka One Laptop Per Child project). I got to play with one at SXSW earlier this year at the MAKE booth and wanted one very BADLY at the time. Of course, it wasn’t available to the…
