Is anyone else like me? A fan of the Apple Mac but stuck in a professional environment that is effectively Windows-only?
Still, I did not let that stop me from purchasing this not too long ago:
I've had it for a few months now, it…
This post will be short, because it doesn't have anything substantive to say.
My previous post does, though, and I freely admit I want more folks to read it. I want their take on it. So I am being sneaky, underhanded, or perhaps just plain annnoying…
For those who have not heard, BE Conference is, as of this year, changing to become "Be Connected". You can read more about the changes here. A short way to summarize it is that instead of holding the yearly BE conference, an online seminar…
