Mailus Interruptus - April 23, 2007

It's so addictive that it's been called the Crackberry. It's as expensive as an Apple iPhone, but you can actually buy a Blackberry. Last week though, the back-end infrastructure suffered a glitch: ... the outage from Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning was triggered by "the introduction of a new, non-critical system routine" designed to optimize the cache, or temporary memory, on the computer servers that run the BlackBerry network. Oh boy, I wish I new someone at RIM. :-)

New Notebook: Panasonic R6 - April 1, 2007

I finally switched from Fujitsu after we had a 100+% return rate on the last batch of S-series notebooks, i.e. we had to send notebooks back for repairs an average of over one time each! (Compare that to earlier Fujitsu notebooks that literally ran without a problem util being dropped down an entire flight of stairs!) We now buy Macs (an option for engineers) and Dells (our default).
