Temptations from the Devil I'm a Mac guy. There's no two ways about it. I've been using a Mac at home since 1986. On the other hand, I'm a tech guy – and that means I know how to use most operating systems out there. Given my new setup of Mac, Windows, and Linux, I'm […]

Belkin OmniView KVM Switch It's done. My new setup is complete. I now have three platforms, Macintosh, Windows XP, and Linux all running through one monitor.

It seems kinda odd to read about this now. I've had this same service from Time Warner for nearly a year. It's not so bad, when it works. A dozen times I've had to reset my cable box when my “browser” failed to work. I wonder what browser they're using? I keep expecting to see […]
