WebKit/Epiphany
Saw some good news this morning as WebKit GTK+ released v1.1.3 and along with it comes the first Epiphany release based on that code. I’ve been waiting for that for a while. I’ll have to try it out soon as I find that Epiphany/Gecko that I’m using now crashes a lot.
Windows Marketplace
Saw over on Engadget that Microsoft has released details about the Windows Marketplace. They want to charge a $99 USD developer fee and another $99 USD for every application you submit. Like Apple and Google, they are doing the 70/30 split with the developer for revenue. They plan to have the marketplace open for business [...]
Dell BIOS
Recently I got a new notebook, a Dell Latitude E6400. Everything has been working great since I got it. Once thing I wanted to do was update the BIOS to the latest vendor recommended version. Unlike my old D620, the E6400 BIOS is some kind of Windows/GUI thing and no longer fits on a DOS [...]

Day 1 with Das Keyboard
I got my Das Keyboard and Logitech MX1100 yesterday. They both work well with my Dell and Mac notebooks. On my desktop, it wasn’t so good. I wasn’t able to boot my system with the keyboard plugged in. No idea what that is about. Maybe a problem with the USB hub inside the keyboard? Since [...]
Das Keyboard
I’m not a big fan of the Macbook’s chiclet style keyboard. I’ve been using a Logitech Cordless Desktop MX 3200 for an external keyboard/mouse. I had only used it with Linux before and I guess I had forgotten that it was a windows only set. When I first got it, I needed a Windows machine [...]
