VMware Workstation 6 RC2

7 Comments Posted by on April 24, 2007

Release! Well I dropped the ball on this one, but we released VMware Workstation 6.0 RC2 last week. This is our second release candidate, and for those using our betas in the past, you should know that that means a final release isn’t too far away!

Universal segfault

12 Comments Posted by on April 21, 2007

(I’m sick today with a stomach flu and have recently consumed NyQuil, so this may make much more sense in my own head. I’m also not an expert in quantum mechanics, so please excuse any misconceptions I have.) I was reading an article about quantum mechanics and how many scientists in the field want to [...]

Netvibes, a popular customizable Web 2.0 homepage/portal site, just announced Netvibes Universe. Until now, all Netvibes pages have been private, requiring a login, but Netvibes is trying something a little different where users can create public pages with content available for others to see.

New Toy: Panasonic DMC-TZ3K Digital Camera

10 Comments Posted by on April 7, 2007

I received a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P71 digital camera about four or five years ago as a present, and it has performed well over the years, providing me with lots of decent quality shots. However, the lack of such features as image stabilization and auto-rotation indicators, plus the need for AA batteries has had me thinking [...]

Pipe into your netlife: Comic feeds

11 Comments Posted by on April 1, 2007

Penny Arcade and Control-Alt-Del are great comics. I love to read them and do so when I’m not feeling really lazy. See, I pretty much live inside my Google Calendar, GMail, Remember the Milk, Google Reader, and Netvibes tabs, for the most part. I’m pretty lazy when it comes to some forms of content, and [...]
