The OtterBox 7000 Series Laptop Case Review
I’ve reviewed quite a few OtterBox PDA Cases in the past, and one of the main traits they all shared was their near indestructible tough design. Today I am going to take a look at Otterbox’s answer to the traditional laptop case. Obviously their version wouldn’t be made of Cordura, leather, or any other “girly” [...]

Apple, a Force to Be Reckoned With
Reading Slashdot this morning, I read a post linking to an article on RollingStone asking the question “Is Apple the New Evil Empire?”. The article goes on to describe the various ways that Apple has silently dominated various markets, especially the digital audio market, even though it is Microsoft who are the subject of discussion [...]
The NeatReceipts Scanalizer Review
Besides rearing three rowdy (I mean precious) children, I am an independent contractor. What does that mean? I fat-finger expenses into Microsoft Excel and store piles of receipts, reports, business cards, and 1099s, just so I can claim my earnings/losses.At the beginning of each year, I start formulating my spreadsheet and calculate my profit/gains. If [...]

Oh it was released you say? No, what we have now is still the beta right? OK a bit of sarcasm here but after 5 years in the making I’m just a tad disappointed. After the initial wow of watching the windows swell open and throb closed, I’m left deactivating annoying security features that seem [...]
