Back to School on a TabletPC

February 17th, 2010
I am going back to school. I have about 3 months of freedom left. I have mixed feelings about the whole thing. I won't get into those. What I will get into is the fact that I am trying to prepare by revisiting how to study and take classes using a Tablet… more »

What Will They Call the Apple Tablet?

January 20th, 2010
I am even starting to doubt that Apple will announce anything remotely resembling a Tablet Computing device next week. I far more so expect to see a touchpanel equipped iMac. But if they do let loose with what half of the tech/gadget community has been t… more »

Tablet Requirements

How Do I Use It? - Fujitsu U820 Ultra-Mobile PC

August 25th, 2009
It has been just under a month since I took delivery of my Fujitsu U820 UMPC from Newegg. This is not a device for everyone. Perhaps it is not even a device for anyone, except the handful of those of us who choose to use it. I would never try and sell an… more »

Why Did I Switch TabletPC's?

August 9th, 2009
If you've been peeking the pics and catching the occasional tweet from the GW Twitter feed, you'll know that I recently added an HP 2730p TabletPC to the mix. The unit functions as my main work laptop, since I feel like working on anything other than a T… more »

No Rush for Windows 7 in the 'WERKz

August 8th, 2009
In both the military and my current job, there has been a recurring trend in human capital resource management. That is that about the time that a new guy has learned their job and really become good at it, it is about time for us to rotate them to a new… more »
