Preston Gralla: Microsoft's biggest blunder: Vista or Windows Me?
With the news that Microsoft is recommending that some companies should abandon
Vista deployment plans and move instead full-bore into Windows 7, Microsoft is
beginning to close the chapter on Vista, one that the company would rather
forget. But Vista wasn't the company's biggest blunder --- Windows Me was far
worse.

Opinion: Apple to Great Recession: 'What, Me Worry?'
Given the fact that everyone seems to be pinching IT pennies because of the
recession, you'd think Apple would be in trouble. But Apple seems to have a
healthy disregard for economic reality these days, says columnist Dan Turner.

SHARK BAIT OF THE DAY

What the heck!?
I was called to one of our remote sites the other day because the computer had
entered into one of those windows endless reboot cycles. You know the one: it
starts up, shows the windows logo and the loading bar, then quickly blue screens
and reboots to do it all over again ...
