I’m going to be taking a hiatus from this site for a while. In all honesty, I’m not sure it matters much anyway because once I stopped hacking OS X onto netbooks, well, there’s quite simply not as much interest. I’m fine with that, too, because this is really just a hobby of mine, something I started to share a some thoughts and experiences on things.
I’m pretty sure along the way I, and especially you readers, have helped people to get OS X running on some machines it wasn’t meant for. I also like to think I provided a little discussion on some interesting products and stories along the way, but I don’t delude myself into thinking I did any real gut-busting reporting.
Regardless, I’ve clearly lost any and all interest I once had in netbooks, and seeing as SFF computing isn’t terribly exciting these days (sure there’s new CPUs from Intel and AMD, but really, they’re just updates to existing things, so how exciting can it be?) I just don’t see much need to keep posting for now. Besides, I really don’t want to turn this into a tablet site even though tablet computers are all the rage right now.
So, regardless, thanks for visiting, and I imagine I’ll be posting here and there as something catches my eye, but at least there’s a little warning that it’ll be sporadic. In the meantime, nothing will go anywhere, so for those who are still finding this site via google or other sites and are trying to install old versions of OS X on their machines, the info will still be there.
Cheers.
This is actually a little overdue. Okay, it’s a lot overdue. By a matter of weeks, even. But just the same, I couldn’t hang with the Samsung Captivate, better known the world wide as the Samsung Galaxy S. It’s not that it’s a bad phone, because it isn’t (though I did have reception issues), and it’s not that it’s not pretty enough (sure, it’s no work of art, but it’s nice enough), and it’s not that it’s made by Samsung because they make all sorts of quality products (including the Samsung N120 netbook I’ve spoken highly about (and I may have even pre-ordered — I don’t remember now)). No, it’s really no fault on Samsung’s part, in so much as we’re discussing hardware. The fault belongs to Google. Yeah, Android is the problem.
