There’s a gotcha with migrating to Exchange 2007. If your enterprise is still halfway through an Office 2007 rollout (or better yet, if it’s not even begun), you should be aware that users of the delegation features in Outlook are in for trouble.
Specifically, this KB article recommends using Outlook 2007 for “delegates in Outlook [...]

6 die from brain-eating amoeba – Infectious Diseases – MSNBC.com
This one is real, folks. There’s a one-celled organism out there that likes to enter through your nostrils, swim up to your brain and feed on the gray matter until you die. That’s not Stephen King or Clive Barker – this one is real. [...]

So I listened to Macbreak Weekly #59 today while walking around the block. A substantial piece of the discussion involved the impending iBrickness, which by now, has either happened to you or not happened to you.
I also caught Leo’s latest rant on the iBrickify rants by Apple. While I agree with him on [...]

I’m reading a lot of backlash today regarding Apple’s announcement that an upcoming firmware update may turn the iPhone into an iBrick.
Most of reactions can be filed under kneejerk, but since that will be the smallest word on the tag cloud (cough cough), let’s analyze this a little bit.

This morning I decided that I did not have anything to offer beyond what other Mac sites provide. I grow tired of sites rehashing news from each other or large print magazines and I’m afraid I wouldn’t have much more to offer beyond that.
That being said, the domain leopardcentral.com is up for sale. [...]

Last night I was reminded of why Linux’s failure to launch on the desktop will continue. It still does not survive the grandparent’s test.
In my case, my stepfather wished to view videos and flash on the web. That, of course, doesn’t come naturally with Kubuntu, unless you’re wanting to watch video on with [...]

Globalisation Institute – Brussels’ most popular think tank website – Unbundling Microsoft Windows
…found via Slashdot. I’m not so sure how I feel about this. It’s a ballsy opinion, but usually consumers purchase computers with the expectation of having an operating system on it that is tied to the hardware. Microsoft loves it [...]

Halloween is one of those holidays that inspires dog owners everywhere to engage in animal cruelty for the benefit of sick bastards like myself who get a big kick out of it. My mother, who is largely responsible for this twisted sense of humor, forwarded a memo to my inbox yesterday. Some of [...]
