Microsoft Patch Tuesday...Get Ready

As I stress the need to keep your system updated, I would be derelict in my duty if I did not advise of major updates.  Tuesday, look for major updates from Microsoft.  Windows Update should initiate them for you if you have Automatic Updates enabled.  If not, enable it and update your system

Can the Government shut down the Internet?....well, yes

Fascinating reading here that you should be mindful of.  The Internet is such an intricate part of our lives now, to think that the government has the ability to shut it down.  I guess the political loonies will have a field day with this now..

Verizon announces data plan pricing for iphone 4

$30 for an unlimited data plan for Verizon customers with the upcoming iphone 4.  The catch is that Verizon is already announcing that the plan will be short lived and eventually changed to a tier level fee based system.  Mighty gutsy of them to tell you the bait and switch plan prior to doing it.

Welcome to my Site

Well, I've talked about doing this for sometime, but life happens, time escapes you and then you look back and say, D@mn, what happened?  I guess I should explain this site.  It is my little Tech home page.  Through the good grace of God, many happy customers and a fabolous wife, Marla (Cameron and Christian too), I am kicking off the site.  Special thanks to my everthing, Marla.

The site is intended to let people know that owning and maintaing a computer does not have to bleed your pockets.  You can get good service, quick and as promised.  You can also get solid advice, news and reviews.  If you like the site, let me know; if you don't, then don't tell anybody, news travels fast, lol.  I hope it helps some of you.  Any advice, let me know
