New Camera = Mod Pictures!

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

I just picked up a new digital camera. I’ve been wanting a nice one, and after my kids lost the cheap-o one I’ve been getting by with, I sprung for a new Kodak Z812IS.

It’s nice, but more importantly, I can make videos with it, and I don’t need a video converter box to copy over VHS anymore. This alone will cut my video production time in half. Well, not really, but I can dream, can’t I?

A nice review of this nice camera will nicely be posted here soon. Nice!

Captain, Prepare To Dock!

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

Okay, my dirty little secret in the computer world is that I don’t actually keep up with technology. I’m an old-school computer guy, so the latest gizmos usually escape my notice until they start selling them at Best Buy.

However, I ran across this and thought it was just fantastic! I’ve seen SATA converters before, but this takes the cake… notice how they used a Western Digital Raptor X drive? I think I would have to use one too. What about you? Is this something you’d rock on your desktop? They make it with a USB hub, too!
