		<description><![CDATA[Well, it’s been two and a half months since I started setting up my Linux environment for this project and in that time I needed to focus on actual productive work, rather than evaluating operating systems.&#160; So in a few days I will return to that task. The Linux setup sits on its dedicated drive [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This evening I began my installation of Linux for my operating system evaluation experiment.&#160; For my non-desktop needs I typically use RedHat, though it is not something I would find especially desirable&#160; as a desktop environment. For this experiment I decided to give Ubuntu 9.04 a try.&#160; I have used a variety of other Linux [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been writing code, in one form or another, for over 30 years.&#160; I’ve built games at a hobby level, business and entertainment software at a commercial/shrink-wrapped level, and had my hand in projects that have, individually, touched almost half a billion people. In short, I know my craft. During that time, across the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote last year about the battery life of the iPhone 3G, following on from lots of forum chat about perceived issues with it.&#160; At the time I maintained those issues were down to people playing with their phones more as they were new and/or that those people were new to Smart Phones and simply [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have completed the setup of the first two systems, specifically my primary Vista x64 instance and the OS X build.&#160; Rather than taking my existing configurations for these systems, I started from scratch with bare drives. This was partly out of a desire to keep things pure, and also because my primary Vista installation [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a professional software engineer/architect I make frequent use of all three of today’s primary PC operating systems – Windows, OS X and Linux on a regular basis. To this point, each of them has fulfilled a specific role, or been required for a particular purpose.&#160; And, while I do categorize and view them differently, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Technologists and, I expect, most geeks in general, cannot have escaped the recent rumblings in the European Union’s anti-trust proceedings around Microsoft and the “bundling” of Internet Explorer with Windows. There has been plenty of discussion about forcing Microsoft to remove Internet Explorer from Windows entirely for Windows 7. How this is good for consumers, [...]]]></description>
