Today at work I sent out a request for the users to leave their PC's on when they leave the office at days end. I need to rollback our Antivirus software.
I got an E-mail back from one user how do I turn my Surface on .. We are on Wifi.
How do you respond to this.
The brain capacity or lack there of in some people truly amazes me

The Gadget Debate
The Windows vs. MAC vs. Android debate and who's gadget is better will it ever be settled
The Apple Company i find is for the gadget person driven more by the philosophy of keeping up with the Jones's ... You have the IPOD the IPOD touch the IPHONE and now the IPAD. Just little gadgets to proove what really. Do they enhance our lives. Maybe but in what way really. The IPAD is just a glorified IPHONE with a larger screen it has no expansion capabilites heck you can't even plug in a USB device to it.
You can't even hook it to your TV. A mere toy in todays robust world of IT with no ture purpose I find just something for the people that every gadget out there.
I have no idea what the hype is about an overgrown IPOD or IPHONE.
The one thing I have always asked myself in life is when looking at something will it help me in life will i get enjoyment out of it, is it something I will put in a shelf and forget when evaluating something.
If I am going to buy it the value must be tangible and make sense my guidlines below
1. Will it enhance my life
2. Will i use it regularly
3. Will I get bored with it if yes .. don't bother buying it.
4. Does the value make sense
Those are just a few.
I am strong believer in items that are of use The PC world doesn't focus on the gadget side of life but on the true purpose of what people use a PC for Business, E-mail, Surfing the Internet Video streaming and Gaming of course.
The Apple world is driven bt propritary technology devices that serve no value in life just another gadget that is not really needed. The IMAC and the IBOOK i don't consider them in this debate.
I guess we can also bring the cell phone in to this debate as well since I am taking about the Iphone do we really need a device to link the world to us what ever happend to a simple device for e-mail and making phone calls and of course a calendar. I have no desire nor can I understand why people need to post to Facebook or Twitter from a phone. What type of shallow existense has the world come to when we need to live our lives plus the lives of celebrites and friends. If i want to know what a friend is up to I will call them I don't care when they get there coffee what line they are in at the grocery store. If I am at the grocery store and see them I will say hi.
Ok I veered of a little but I think you get my point.
Do we really need all this what are we doing to our children?
think about it was your life growing up that bad without being in constant contact with the world around you.
I don't think so.
Just think about it feel free to comment

Social Networks
We are now attached like never before to the world around us.
Social Networkd Facebook, Twitter, Blogs, Linked in.
Instant Messaging from your phone or from your computer using MSN, AIM, Google Talk to name a few.
There is no excuse for not being available in todays world of Technology unless you unplug yourself from the world around you.
Your friends are a friend list away the know your every move your every Tweet. They are there if you want to talk or have a shoulder to cry on or just a person to talk too.
Terms and words mean new things Tweet is no longer the sound a bird makes but something a human does from their cellphones or computer they tweet what the are doing. You can follow friends celebrates or just joe average.
So Tweet on Blog on the world is yorus to learn.
I enjoy what I know i know i do it connects the world on a level like never before.
You can keep in touch and reconnect with lost frineds from highschool post pictures in an instant so all can see the new addition. They can share and sympathize with you and you with them.
