Windows 7

My my what short memories the sheeple have...

It seems like just yesterday so many people were excited by Windows Vista..only to sadly realize that they spent hundreds of dollars to run bug infested, useless crap.

So, now Windows 7 will soon be here..(well that was quite soon on the heels of Vista, now wasn't it?)
And once again, I hear many many herds thundering to their collective hooves, shouting once more the battle cry of Bill Gates, "Knowledge can only be mine!"

Let me say that so far, I remain so very unimpressed.  Windows 7 can have all the bells, quirks, whistles, toots, tweaks and whatnot but the sad fact remains that no matter what kind of RAM-sucking programs will come with this latest version of Windblows, it can be assured that there will be at least 30 viruses that are out to kill it within 3 days of release.  *Random thought- I wonder if they are *Nix users ha!*

Then to top off the 'let's spend all your money' trap, you will have to either get a mega-Gig RAM kit or for those less tech-savvy, an entirely new box.  And for what?  to have to pay hundreds more for an operating system that is still going to be bug-ridden within a week?  And anyway..what could Windows possibly do that can EVER compare to the supremacy of Compiz-Fusion??

Writer's Block and a Deadline

Everyone has something they are good at; I'm a writer.  I have been hired as a freelance writer on multiple occasions, to the benefit of both parties.  I have written many different types of custom writing for various clients, depending on their needs and my knowledge of the subject they need written about.  Sometimes, though, after a long while of not doing much on the writing front, my skills can get somewhat rusty.  Enter every writers nightmare: writer's block.  Sometimes inspiration can be difficult to come by so it's necessary to have several sources at hand to give a boost when needed.  If ever I get stuck on a particularly technical piece or with a subject I know little about, I can always get a professional to write my essay .  I can always turn to writers with advanced postgraduate degrees and professional business experience to help me get a paper that I can use as a source for my work.  It's nice to know that I don't have to worry about anyone else havi

Yandex Web Browser

On my Windows 7 computer, the one I work from, I need a good, fast reliable browser as part of my workflow.  I recently got rid of one that I really loved for a while, called Torch Browser .  Torch has a lot of great extras, such as music and video players, torrent downloader, facelift for facebook; basically it's great for play.  Don't get me wrong, it was great but my focus on this computer is productivity and I need a web browser to match.  I like using Chrome based browsers as well as Firefox, but I hate having Google involved in everything (like this blog *grumble*) so I go for alternative browsers based on Chrome, minus the Google.  (Sorry, Google dear, but you brought this on yourself)  I was a rabid fan of Opera prior to what I like to call the Operocalypse, where Opera gave up everything that made it stand out from the rest (and made it the best) to yet another Chrome clone.  I have it, out of habit, but only use it on my most secure sites; it sits idle 90% of the time
