Me and Mac

I’m a Mac owner! Woooohoooo! It’s official! I’ve been wanting a Macintosh computer for a long time. Well, actually, I WAS already a Mac owner– I have one of the original Macs, the 1984 model. I dug it out of the closet a few months ago, only to discover that the floppies (which run the [...]

Any of you Gen Xers remember Tron? I always think of that movie when I see these gadgets: I finally figured out what that thing is. It’s a Bluetooth headset! I am a computer whiz, but when it comes to cell phones and mp3 players and all that “little” gadgetry, I’ve never been very interested. But, [...]

Playing Taps for the Konica-Minolta

It’s over. Me and my Konica-Minolta laser printer. It was never a great relationship anyway. I bought it from the budget bin years ago, and it was outdated and no longer being manufactured back then. But this morning, I had to print pages of a workbook for my son– and of course, I’m busy and [...]
