Followup on IPTV; plus I bought a Mac Mini

10, Sep 2010

Ok, strike another thing off of my wishlist.  As a followup to my IPTV thoughts post, I have purchased one of the new Mac Mini’s with an HDMI port over the weekend.  I even got the pleasure of buying it, atwhat I believe is the original Apple Store,  in Tysons Corner,Virginia while visiting my in-laws.

iPhone 4 impressions and the case program

23, Jul 2010

For once, I was not the first of my friends with the shiny new Apple toy!  You see, I work for an AT&T reseller and we had an internal policy for the iPhone launch that employees would need to wait so that our customers could get iPhone 4′s in hand as quickly as possible.  I [...]

One of my most recent projects at HTC has been implementing our HP Bladesystem (not to be confused with a BladeCenter – that’s IBM’s product!). For the most part, its gone extremely smooth and the solution is fantastic for a sprawling datacenter. It really allows you to consolidate and concentrate your computing in the datacenter. [...]

What I’m passionate about: virtualization

5, Aug 2008

Since June of 2006, I’ve worked for HTC (Horry Telephone Cooperative), which by the way is the national’s largest telephone cooperative.  Its offered me some great experiences and training opportunities.  One of those is exposure to virtualization technologies.  And this one comes with a story. When I started at HTC, my wife was pregnant and [...]
