Someone forwarded this to my wife, saw it and I think you’ll agree that it speaks for itself.

The Time Has Come

The time has come to do what almost every married man has to do at least once in their lives. This is one that many have braved and only few have mastered. I don’t know if I have it in me so please pray for me.

The time has come to hang CURTAIN RODS…

Chrome, Google Chrome

OK, I’m really kicking myself now.  Why the hell haven’t it before?   I mean I’ve read up on Chrome and all but I’ve just never gotten around to using it.  Don’t know if I’ll make it my default browser or not but it’s pretty nice so far. We’ll see if Chrome suffers from the same memory issues are FF….

Windows 7 RC

I spent some time playing around with Windows 7 RC a few weeks ago and I have to say it was actually kind of nice.  I don’t know if I would be saying the same thing if I ran it on my older hardware.  Lets just say anything better be running fast on an Intel Core i7 920, x58 mobo, 150GB raptor, and 6Gigs of triple channel memory.  To this day I have never run Vista so it took sometime to get used to the new Areo interface and the Vista-ish start menu.  The UAC really does remind me of the Get a Mac commerical but thankfully it was easy enough to turn off (Obligitory plug for just disabling it by default).

Currently I’m toying around with the idea of running it again for a while.  I was able to run all my usually applications and get my development environment up and running after learning how to navigate the new file structure.  I just hate the idea of having to reload everything again….  CNET has a good review for those of you thinking/wondering about Windows 7.

So Bioware is making the new MMO, Star Wars The Old Republic, and I must say I’m hopeful.  Bioware is a great company and has pushed out some really great games in the past (KOTOR anyone?).  Lets keep our fingers crossed :)
