About three weeks ago, I finally took the iMac, that I pur­chased at the end of Decem­ber, out of the box. I didn’t use it much, but every­thing seemed to be hum­ming along fine. How­ever, a lit­tle over a week ago, I was work­ing on the iMac when it started to ran­domly shut down. A […]

If you’ve fol­lowed my blog, or seen my posts on Twit­ter or Face­book, then you know that I am a huge fan of min­i­mal design. I am a firm believer in less is more, par­tic­u­larly when it comes to pub­lish­ing. There’s noth­ing that will make me skip over a mag­a­zine or web­site faster than when […]

While I can­not say that I didn’t have some­thing resem­bling with­drawal symp­toms at first, […]

Let me state right up front, this turned out to be a much longer post than I had antic­i­pated. My apolo­gies for those accus­tomed to short-form, non-rambling blog posts. If there was any doubt that I am truly not anti-Apple, I think that can now be laid to rest. As of yes­ter­day (around 1 pm to be exact), […]
