Love this scanner. Had it unboxed and set up on my iMac in 5 minutes. Easy button access for email or copying works great. You definately get great value for the dollar, and the fact that it doesn't need AC power makes it even better.

I bought this with the intention of scanning old photos to jpg files. It works great! The software is just ok. But the greatest feature is that you can scan four pictures at once. It makes projects like mine a breeze. I can also see myself using this for...

This is my 4th "CP" Printer from Canon. I don't know why I keep upgrading because I don't need to. This one is the fastest "CP" Printer yet. I have 2 complaints... 1. They took away the retractable usb cord. 2. No battery support. Luckily I still have...

I've been waiting for this printer to come out for quite some time. I previously used Canon's MP730 and completely loved it. This new version adds several great features, and after a few days of playing around with it, it has lived up to my high...

Norton AntiVirus 11.0 For Mac

I have only owned this product for a short while so I haven't experienced any problems. Two years ago my computer ended up with a worm which sent out bogus messages to friends to infect their Windows computers. It was embarrassing and upsetting. I had...

I had a Canon BubbleJet BJC-4200 long ago, and after that printer I was very hesitant to even consider another Canon printer. When my most recent printer died, an HP DeskJet 970cse, I needed to find a good printer that could print duplex and produce...

Linux Has Mono

Mon, 06 Oct 2008 19:40:06 -0500

Today the Mono Project released the much-anticipated Mono 2.0 for Linux. After two-and-a-half years in development, Mono 2.0 is finally here and ready to run your .NET 2.0 applications, Windows Forms, ASP.NET content on Mac OS X, BSD and Linux. Mono is multi-language capable--choose your own path from C#, VB, Java, PHP, Python, Ruby, Eiffel, F#, Oxygene and more. Mono is a cross-platform, open source .NET development framework. Now the question is, why? Why would anyone want to use .NET for anything if you're still using PHP, Python, Java, etc. for development? Mostly it's because Miguel...

Ballmer To Apple: Divorce Hardware and Software

Sun, 05 Oct 2008 11:10:05 -0500

Steve Ballmer should limit his worries to Microsoft and his advice to his employees. Last week the Microsoft CEO reportedly had the audacity to suggest that Apple "become more like Microsoft," and loosen the bonds between Apple hardware and software. Is he really that clueless? Surely he's aware that it's the marriage between hardware and Mac OS X that allows Apple build the best, most intuitive computers and smartphones in the world. According to an article on CNet News the comments came during an interview conducted by a Ziff Davis reporter at the Churchill Club, a Silicon Valley...
