    The end of my love for Apple, the iPad

    Maybe I'm being melodramatic about a business, but it seems like playing directly to a market segment is a bit, you know, soulless for a company with a history like Apple has. What bothers me is not that this thing is a gigantic iPod, it's that it could have been something so much more...

    The Apple iPad...

    The majority of my issues with the device are purely technical; what subjective qualities are these bloggers/journalists complaining about?

    The end of my love for Apple, the iPad

    I thought I'd empty my bank account the day Apple introduced their idea of a tablet interface. This technology would ideally inform the next generation of computing hardware of what to look like and how to operate, but the iPad fails to achieve anywhere near that level of importance. Maybe this...

    Mac Pro - iMac Upgrade

    I haven't posted here in a long time, but I have a serious upgrade question to ask: would it be worth the $400-500 to upgrade my current machine (a 2.66GHz quad-core Mac Pro) to the new 27" quad-core iMac? My current setup is the aforementioned Mac Pro connected to two 22" run of the mill LCD...

    Samsung Instinct - The iphone killer?

    This is precisely why I'm stunned at the massive importance put on college education in fields that don't require a huge amount of factual knowledge. Doctors, lawyers, auditors, etc. need this sort of factual knowledge, but do artists? Do entrepreneurs? NO, and that's been described by the...

    Samsung Instinct - The iphone killer?

    Why is it that you and I can see this, but not multi-billion dollar companies that spend millions upon millions in market research and degree-wielding HR? Steve Jobs didn't go to business college to become what he is. I passion for companies to stop hiring degrees and start hiring people.

    What bitrate do you guys rip at?

    I have so many esoteric tracks that I can't say with intellectual honesty that I use a specific bit rate. However, when I buy a physical CD, I'll rip it at 320kb/s VBR. I also tend towards internet radio stations with the highest bit rates, if not simply because it signifies a higher quality...
