I had a supremely pleasant experience buying a budget digital camera at Circuit City on Saturday.
Normally I am loathe to buy electronics at retail stores because the customer service is…well…not actually customer service. So, I was surprised at the great service I got at Circuit City this past weekend. I walked in and […]

No one is safe.
Seriously.

The web browser “war” just got more interesting!
Steve Jobs just announced that Apple will release a Windows version of their browser, Safari.
