Danielle asked me if we could scan a document to PDF recently and I forgot I had a nice “old” Epson Perfection 1650 flatbed scanner laying around (well preserved). I have been spoiled in recent times because we had a very nice enterprise level printer/scanner at the office with a 50 page document feeder on it. It would man handle a 2 page document and email it to me almost faster than I could make it back to my desk. These days, we are rollin’ with the Perfection 1650 flatbed…OG style homey

Apple’s upcoming iPad includes the iBooks apps, which combines e-book reader software with an iTunes-like service for selling books. I was somewhat surprised by iBooks. I had just assumed that Apple was going to let existing e-book distributors like Amazon.com and FictionWise install apps on the iPad and sell books that way

As promised for a long time, we’ve been working on pitting Xen and OpenVZ against eachother in a little “battle of the free virtualization solutions”. (If you can’t quite recall what this OpenVZ business is all about, we suggest you go read our article on container-based virtualization ) Though development of our vApus FOS benchmark suite is moving on quite diligently, it takes time to create both a realistic testing setup that will prove useful and relevant for a while in a world where cores are multiplying like a pair of rabbits.
The new Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus can be turned into a 3G phone hotspot: While you can purchase third-party software on a limited number of phones to make them into 3G-to-Wi-Fi gateways, it’s not a standard option on any major smartphone platform in the US. Palm and Verizon are offering this new feature–via a free downloadable program–for $40/mo (5 GB limit with metered overage fees) above the rest of your voice, texting, and data plan

Portland, Ore., was the big win for MetroFi, back in the day, the flagship network that never was: MetroFi was unable to make its gear and business model work in a way that let them move forward, and I won’t rehash the process that led them to exit the working world. However, the company left behind hundreds of SkyPilot distribution and backhaul nodes, and a $30,000 bond to remove them. The city estimates the cost will be double, and the equipment has nearly no resale value.

A malfunctioning software update failed to trigger alarms to notify city workers that water levels in a 5 million gallon tank were reaching critical levels before it overflowed, flooding a Thousand Oaks home last month and damaging two other properties, a city official said. The alarms, which notify the on-call worker when water reaches high or low points, were among several safety features that …
