Technology
I woke up to a very sorry sight this morning. My poor iMac had had a little episode overnight while I was out. It seems that her hard drive died and has gone to the great computer dump in the sky. It was terribly sad. Nothing I tried brought her back to life. It was […]
Imagine my delight last month when I heard rumours that the iPhone was coming to Ireland. Finally we were about to get hold of one of the most hotly anticipated technology items in recent memory. And it was coming quickly too. No waiting months after an announcement for it to actually arrive and be in […]
In support of the Pink for October campaign, I’ve added a touch of pink to the site for the month.
Look again. No that’s not an iPhone it’s the new iPod touch fresh out of Uncle Steve’s pocket. Just launched today the iPod touch is basically an iPhone without the phone. It’s got multi-touch, WiFi, Safari, YouTube, Coverflow, photos, video and even the new iTunes WiFi store. It’s going to come in two versions, 8GB […]
So earlier this week, we got a more up-to-date look at Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Some stuff was the same as the preview we got at last year’s WWDC but there was some more info on hand this year. It’s hard to judge something until you’ve actually used it but the OS certainly looks […]
Since I bought the iMac back in January, I’d been looking for an easy and elegant backup solution for OS X. Sure, Time Machine is coming with OS X 10.5 but I wanted to get started on the backups straight away. I’d tried Synk and Carbon Copy Cloner (both excellent and powerful in their […]

I’ve spent a bit of time over the past week or so getting acquainted with my latest new toy. A shiny new 20″ Intel iMac. I’d been lusting over the prospects of Intel goodness ever since the announcement of the transition to Intel last year. I was gonna save up and get myself a […]
So there we have it. After years of speculation Apple launched the iPhone yesterday. Pretty isn’t it.
At the moment my brain (and Apple lust) tells me I want one but I won’t make my mind up totally until I play with one. It’s launching in the US in June so hopefully I’ll get to […]
Over the past few days my poor ‘catch-all’ email address on the server has been hammered by Mail Delivery Error reports. It appears that some scummy spammer is using my domain name with randomly generated email addresses to send spam. Even though it looks like they come from my domain, they actually don’t; the address […]
