Microsoft: Vista is not struggling, wait...
Looks like Microsoft’s PR team is going to be working overtime. They have been saying all along that Vista has been selling well, except the numbers don’t seem to reflect that. Couple that with the emails that have come out as a result of the “Vista Capable” lawsuit they are admitting...
iPhone to gain Exchange support, does it...
Note: I have posted a followup to this post here. Over at Apple Insider there is an article stating that Apple is going to announce better Microsoft Exchange support on the iPhone next week.

Who Also Should Be Looking at buying Yah...

In my line of work, I frequently have to research products and services to find the best fit for a company. Frequently...
Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Review on MSNBC....
Msnbc.com has a great article profiling the 2007-2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. While the author is a little to prone to comparing it to minivans and “other SUV’s” he still has valid points that I can personally vouch for. I am 60-days into driving a 2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited. So far it...

Web 2.0 Financial Management Sites...
Just a couple of reviews of sites I checked out this weekend: Financial: I checked out Mint.com. Really nice site design and some nice features to present you with a financial dashboard. I’m going to stick with Yodlee though. Mint doesn’t seem to be able to pull information in from accounts...
