Today I started an Microsoft Exchange to Google Apps migration for a customer, and was perplexed to find that the Google Apps Migration for Microsoft Exchange tool (hereafter GAMME) crashed as soon as I started a migration. The solution is simple, but a little perplexing. At least up until the day this was written (12/07/12) GAMME [...]
I am beginning to see a lot of failed hard drive/front IR cable assemblies in Mid-2009 MacBook Pro 13″ models. This can be hard to diagnose without a replacement cable, but if replacing the hard drive doesn’t resolve the problem replacing the cable might. I have cables available from $30 + shipping and complete repair [...]
The dreaded Google Malware Warning, most amateur website operators have, or will have experience with it. When Google detects that your website has been compromised and is providing a channel for the distribution of malware, they show this warning for anyone referred from a Google property, including users of Google’s Chrome browser, who get the [...]
In light of the color wheel failure in my HD70 I was forced to find a replacement. I have to commend Optoma. Despite their somewhat snippy customer service rep, I am really impressed. I called them four days ago (Monday) after they had closed for the day (why answer the phone if you’re closed?) and [...]

There are a couple of high [...]
Initially, I loved Boxee. It was the cat’s meow in terms of media management, and media playback. As someone who has ripped (and re-encoded) 200+ DVDs more than once, it was a welcome relief to have software to pull together album art, names, synopses, etc. I always found the interface less than desirable, and never understood [...]
I was running an outdated version of TimThumb with a known vulnerability for a while, I updated my install a while back but apparently some naughty code was left behind and recently became active. If Google caught you in a redirect and warned you that my site may contain malware, fear not! The problem is [...]

This is the display connector in the new 11″ MacBook Air. To remove the display clamshell this must be unplugged. Upon re-installation it is very important to note that the machine will not boot with connector installed upside down. There are no clear identifying markings on the connector to indication its orientation. If installed incorrectly [...]
The title says it all. If you are excited about Sparrow or even the new Sparrow Lite, wait until you get your hands on the Mail.app 5.0 from Lion, the upcoming update to OS X. Sparrow has a deceptively familiar interface, after installing the Developer Preview of Lion. It is almost like they had some [...]
