I was downloading a backup this morning from the fairly new dedicated server: Note the 1.5 MB/s downspeed, from a server! Get that with a shared host. I dare you!

Mac Pro – day 6

I love my Mac. His name’s Alfred, in case you were wondering. You know, like Bruce Wayne’s butler. And he’s just as awesome, and helpful. I’ve done quiet a bit in the last six days of having a Mac, including doing my first bit of design work on it. I also learned what applications I [...]

First, thanks to Nick at the Apple store in the Rockingham Mall (Salem, New Hampshire). Dude knows his stuff, that’s for sure.

Switching to Mac – The Journey Continues
August 6th, 2009

We’re now a mere 54 days away from my birthday/Mac Pro Day, and I’m getting more and more excited. Over the last month, I’ve gotten so reliant on using my iMac at the office, that when I get home, I’m discouraged having to use Windows. I often press my mouse button down, expecting Expose, and [...]
