OS Agnostic?

Posted on February 15, 2009 by ehurst

I’m trying to become more agnostic about computer OSes. I know what I like and what I want, but I also know the rest of the world, particularly those whom I help, just don’t care. All my effort in the … Continue reading →

Posted on February 12, 2009 by ehurst
