In fact, Time Magazine even named the RX100 one of the 25 Best Inventions of the Year 2012! Digital cameras have been […]
Intrigued by the Microsoft Surface…
So this was announced yesterday: (image source) As someone who vastly prefers physical keyboards to those on touchscreens, I can’t help but show some interest in the new Microsoft Surface. And as much as J and I love Apple computers, we aren’t fans of iOS due to its restrictive platform. Both of us own Android […]

Guest Post: I’m a Mac. No, a P.C. Neither? Both?
