I feel sorry for people that sell and buy on Ebay that do not have a working knowledge of the Internet in order to spot a scam. Luckily for this one person, they pulled one of the best documented pranks ever on a scammer on Ebay. It is completely documented with details of what happened. I started reading it, and fell in the floor.

Ok, so here is the deal. What if I told you you could cut your $100 or $200 phone bill to $39.00 a month, AND you can have a second phone line for a dedicated fax machine, AND you can have 1500 minutes of long distance? Interested? Read more!

Apple vs Dell in price shootout

I always find myself defending my decision to purchase an Apple laptop when visiting friends or clients. Not that I care that I am light years ahead of them or anything, but I always find myself saying the same thing. After I connect to their network, access the internet and print to their windows printers they all start to say, “… hmmm OS X is pretty slick”. That is usually followed up with “… but they are expensive and I couldn’t afford one”. I usually explain that Apple doesn’t make “cheap” computers and if you compare apples to apples (no pun intended) they are about the same. It turns out someone else took the time to do a real comparison. You can read his article and comparison about the least expensive laptop.

I’ve been extremely busy lately and have been wanting to make needed changes to the site. However, clients are demanding projects get done, students want their tests graded and my dog wants to go outside to use the bathroom. Everything seems to just pile up and pile up doesn’t it? Well, I’ve been away for sometime so let me get you caught up on what is going on.

Selling my Ultimate Linux Workstation

I am selling my work station that I spent several years building up. It is a pretty hefty little system considering what all is in it but since I got my Dell laptop I haven’t used it at all really. Sad I know. The processor is not the fastest that is available but all of the other hardware surrounding it is extremely cool and up-to-date still. Since it is an open architecture system you can just upgrade until you are blue in the face. Read more for specs and pricing. Also, sorry I haven’t been posting any news to the site lately, I have been extremely busy launching some new sites.
yes I know the picture is broke, I’ll fix it later
