  • A message to all who view this blog:

    I have been looking at viewing stats for the entries I make, and can see that the graph looks similar to the side elevation of a mountain range. Some topics are way more popular than others, but I am not running a popularity contest here.

    My main aim is appeal to a wide experience/knowledge base. I cannot, therefore, apologise if each or any of the entries do not appeal to you.

    If you have an issue, complaint, or would just like to make a general comment, please feel free to contact me.

    • Extra Extra.. read all about it..

      .. well,  at least two ‘Extras’ are making a comeback, except that they will not be Ultimate this time. They will be Windows 7 all versions this time because they will be released to all Windows 7 users. So, are you on the edge of your seats at the...

    • Obsessions..

      If I was the type of computer user who can only have the absolute best and nothing else will do, I probably couldn't afford one. I can understand a gamer wanting the best because every 1/000th of a second counts (apparently). I can understand a video...

    • Cheap Apples..

      Rumour has it that Apple may release an $800 laptop/notebook. Presently, no Mac sells for under $1000, so this is good news, yes? I looked at the Mac range, and entry level is the MacBook at $1099. It has a specification much like a cheap Acer, Dell or...

      The contents of website can bring frustration at the time, but be followed by tears of laughter when looking back at the events. However, there is a class of client that can you leave you wondering why you bother at all. http://www.rinkworks.com/stupid...

    • Herbal tea soothes Vista crashes?

      I wonder what one takes for Mac crashes? A second mortgage perhaps? Herbal tea is a cheap alternative and would last for quite some while, especially as Vista crashes are not the norm. Some may be amused by the Apple adverts, but they leave me cold. Can't...

    • In The Clouds..

      They told me that cloud computing was the way to go. I asked them if they thought that my connection was fast enough, and they said yes. So I gave up my computer on the ground. But my new computer was not fast enough, and neither was my Internet connection...

    • Updates, Updates, Updates..

      The Vista language packs are back.. .. for those of you who like to switch to some obscure language and then see if you can find your way back to an operating system that you understand. There are thirty four packs on offer, essentially thirty two different...

    • A new look..

      The view through 'Mikes Window' has not changed, but look at the nice new frame. I have been messing with different themes for this blog, looking for something more modern than the 70's 'dumb terminal' appearance, and of the choices...
