People Upset Over Fake Core i7 Blame Newegg instead of Counterfeiters

I used to have a sign in my office that read:
Quality
Speed
Low Cost
Pick Two.
It reminded people that although you can get something quickly at a cost, it won’t be cheap. But if you want something cheap and fast, it won’t be the highest quality possible, and if you want something low cost and high quality, it [...]

Moving Projects to a New Server

I have to say, you really need to pick your host properly. I use two hosts, Powweb and InnoHosting. Inno has gone above and beyond in the last few days as a switch was required from another host that I started with. I’ll stick to Powweb and Innohosting.

Facebook, Privacy, and Your Info is No Longer YOURS.
