Tonight I got one of my favorite dinners. For those of you not aware, Baja Fresh is an above average restaurant. There are many Baja Fresh locations, the food is pretty much the same from local to local, I like dependability.

I’m not one to just talk about something and not actually do it. So I placed my order for the Santa Claus letter and I actually felt good just ordering it… when my kid receives it I’m likely to have to hide my smile. I chose traditional letter number 1 because it just seemed the [...]

I’ve been thinking of getting a new phone. Right now the decision is whether I should be getting something like the Nokia E70, AT&T 8525, Apple iPhone, or some HTC product. The truth is that there are so many different devices available that making a decision can be very easy or overly complicated. I make [...]

While surfing around the Internet I found a watch that I was sure would be sold out or unavailable by this time. The watch was announced in the beginning of the year and now, almost near the end of the year, it’s still available. I think. I can’t find how to buy one, so maybe [...]

I took today off of work. There’s an appointment that I have in the city I live in, which is too far from my work for a quick drive back and forth during working hours (that’s over a 110 mile commute). So instead of spending half the day at work, I decided to take a [...]

A family member is interested in getting a new computer (and I’m interested in them buying a new computer). The current computer, a Dell Dimension, is about 5-6 years old. A friend is looking for a cheap laptop. A neighbor is looking for computer deals. This sound familiar? Welcome the $399 laptop!

Since I spend a majority of my days, weeks, and months on a computer, there are few opportunities allocated for watching TV. I watch a few TV shows on a semi-regular basis (thanks to DirecTV’s HR20, I record now and watch later). One of the shows that I am now addicted to is Burn Notice.

Camera Comparison
So I decided to take pictures with my Canon SD550 and Canon SD700IS, of the exact same items, so that I can compare the two and decide which one I want to use as my primary camera. The main difference between the cameras would be the pixel rating (SD550 = 7.1MP; SD700IS = 6.0MP), [...]

Well.. I did a comparison a while ago for comparing DirecTV vs. Adelphia’s Digital Cable. I wound up sticking with DirecTV, this is why…
Perhaps I could have skewed this more toward either direction, but honestly started the comparison for myself in order to decide what I wanted to have for my entertainment service.

I’ve been upgrading most of the displays at work. LCD pricing has come down a lot. Last month the deal was with ViewSonic but this month they are pushing their LCD/TV display (which is priced well, but not what I’m looking for). So I placed an order for several of the Acer 22″ AL2216w LCD monitors.
