Why I take all medical studies the a grain of salt (pun intended):

Interesting blog post by Philip Greenspun entitled: Christmas gift for someone you hate: Windows 8

How can 30-year-old receivers sound better than new ones?
Not directly computer related but…
I was over at Cnet (more on that in a minute) and saw this article: How can 30-year-old receivers sound better than new ones?
I agree with much of the article. Give me good sound and forget all the stupid buttons and inputs I’ll never use.
The reason I was over at Cnet is because a reader sent me an email saying in part, “that post looks a lot like your Ditch Those CD’s! A Guide To Using USB Flash Drives“.

So they’ve responded with a new “I’m a Mac, I’m a PC” ad that is both ingenuous and libelous, and once again they come off looking like a bunch of arrogant jerks.

Gone in 2 minutes: Mac gets hacked first in contest
Noooo, that isn’t possible. Macs are ‘secure’.
A former US National Security Agency employee has trousered $10,000 for breaking into a MacBook Air at CanSecWest security conference’s PWN 2 OWN hacking contest. The MacBook was lined up against Linux and Vista PCs – which have so far remained uncracked.
Mac vs Windows vs Linux

Are Mac users snobs? “The Street” thinks so
Mac users strong enough to watch The Street’s video clip without getting so offended they’ll smash their screen will discover the 2 minute and 18 second video says the following: Mac users “self centred, arrogant, conceited”. Out of the Mindset Media study of 7500 Mac and PC users, “Mac users do really think they are superior”. They think they are “self important, extraordinary and more intellectually curious”.
