So, here we are a long time later

Hello everyone, I am not sure who even follows my blog anymore. I again, apologize for not updating in so long. I have made a few YouTube videos, and tweet a lot more. Look on the right side for that, and to follow me. What have I been up to? Well, I moved to North…


I am terrible I know, but it’s a post :)

So, you know I have been going back and forth on getting an Apple TV (ATV): It’s only $100.00 It will work with all my other Apple tech (iPhone, iPad, MBP) I use iTunes Match with the iCloud, so it would have all my music too Why have I not just broken down and got…


Windows 8 is here (Evaluation copy)

You can download the iso’s here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/iso So far it seems very iOS like. Well, you have seen it on tv, it looks like a windows phone. If you don’t like that you hit your windows key on your keyboard and it dumps you back to a windows desktop. It has an app store much…


HTPC and AirPlay

So, I am avoiding doing homework to update my blog. Not the best move, as I know my professor doesn’t read this. That said, I had to post an update. As you may or may not know, I am a bit of an Apple Fan Boy. Mind you I have used mac’s before mac’s were…


All Mac OS, but a few different things

So, I’ve been trying to use the whole launchpad in Mac OS 10.7 and it’s kind of a pain. I like the iOS feel to it, but it has a ton of Adobe junk that I never use. I was reading something on Macworld about how to fix that issue, so I will have to…


So, here we go again

Hey everyone,   I know, I know, I won’t apologize this time. It’s been a bit of time eh? So, what’s new, MAC OS 10.7 came out. I am waiting to buy it. I’m not sure of the whole no DVD thing. Apple and Macworld say it’s great, but I will wait for 10.7.1 to…


tired, but got stuff done

So, I have no idea why the DVD drive isn’t installing on the HTPC. So I installed windows via USB. Just like I got Linux running earlier this week. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ makes a great little utility that you can install OS’s from a USB stick. As long as you have an ISO of the OS you…


Again with the updates

So I am still waiting on the DVD drive 🙁 Purolator can’t even find it right now. I think their site might be down for maintenance or something. I am yet to even fire up the htpc yet. I might do that tomorrow just to make sure it posts then fill in my rebate forms……


So some updates

Truck tailgate got buffed out yesterday by my buddy. Looks very good. We might get away with it and a touch up pen. More to follow on that. Installing Mac OS X 10.6 on the Mac Mini again. I need to find something to do with it. It just gets new OS installed on it…


HTPC wireless keyboard and mouse test

So, Got a big box of parts today in the mail 🙂 everything but the dvdram drive. The big thing that I was worried about was the kingwin mouse and Targus wireless keyboard working together. Right now testing on the laptop with win7 64bit seems to be working. It will take a few days to…
