Today Doc Brown and Marty McFly come to their future. Sadly they've found not only have they time traveled but now they are in an alternate universe. These are the problems with time travel and moving matter through the space time continuum. Here's some things I think would really upset Marty...

I was recently offered an opportunity to speak to representatives from both Viewsonic and Userful. What interested me in this was that news had just broken that the third largest company in VDI, Ncomputing, was being bought and had just laid off the majority of its workforce. I think Ncomputing...

We just got information for this product. Normally I don't post news based on an email message but a 4WD wheelchair is something that allows people off paths and that's just too cool to pass up. See more at http://whill.us

We have news that Sony's network as well as their Playstation Network are down due to a denial of service attack. Curiously, news stations are reporting that a Sony exec's plane was diverted yesterday - naming that exec in the warning about a bomb. More word about the
DOS attack here.

Why did this take so long? I mean, everyone knows it takes three tries to get a USB connector plugged in with its current design but now Apple is fixing this flaw.

The more of this story I read the less I liked it. I like being able to have one set of headphones for all my equipment - having to buy proprietary adapters or not being able to use future Beats headphones with anything but Apple products just doesn't seem appealing.

We warned you that you needed to avoid Internet Explorer like the plague until a patch was released for its latest security flaw. In a very strange move Microsoft has decided to patch Windows XP users at this time also. Strange considering XP is no longer a supported OS but I guess the threat to...

To combat a recently discovered security hole Apple has released a new iOS today. It's small - 13 mb. During the process my phone got stuck on the updating process - I'd get the Apple logo on the screen during startup but the OS wouldn't load. After connecting the phone to my laptop iTunes...

In a bizarre move the developer of Flappy Bird is pulling the app from the app store. You have until noon Eastern Time to get a copy of the game.
This article states its not for legal reasons and the developer was making $50,000 a day in advertising. A strange move that doesn't make sense...

Some interesting updates in this article. First, a price drop for the 5s to coincide with the release of a Phablet (phone/tablet) and some more firm news on the iPhone 6. Previously Apple wasn't willing to cut the throat of the iPad with a phablet but that appears to be shifting quickly.

This news is about 24 hrs old but I waited to see if there were any issues reported. Luckily it looks like this update should be a go for anyone with Windows 8. What's new? As usual there should be a lot of security enhancements but of note is the return of the Start button. A move back to more...

Apparently I'm not the only one who found that iMessage no longer works in iOS7. Upgrading to 7.02 didn't help either. You did know 7.02 is out right? I suspect an update with a more classic look which also fixes
all the glitches mentioned in this article will be out before too long. As far as...

Just before the release of iPhone 5s Apple will release ios7. Since most of us aren't going to upgrade our phones, tablets, and watches on release day for 5s I think this will be a more meaningful attempt by Apple to hold onto its market share. If you can survive this long video let us know what...

"Apple has been aware of this vulnerability for six months and has yet to patch the exploit in any currently available operating system build." Yikes, expect an update soon I suppose. So much hype with new OS releases to coincide with iPhone 5s probably made this a back burner at Apple. Read...
