It does what I’ve wanted needed my cameras to do for a very long time, so I don’t miss that key cute kid moment while the camera focuses or turns on. It has a pre-record mode!

Drobo adds Firewire 400/800 support and up to 16TB. Damn them! I was just chatting with Aaron about this deal yesterday, which I thought was a great deal for a Drobo, but now they’ve done what I wanted them to do last year with the addition of Firewire.

This is very tempting, but I’ll have to wait and see…I need to sell off my 4 external drives and pick this baby up!

AppleInsider is reporting that good ol’ Microsoft is planning a huge advertising campaign aimed at the Apple ads that smear Vista. The funny thing about this is, it seems like such a desperate move, and by the time they’d see any benefit from it, which I doubt they will, they’ll be ready to release Windows 7.

What cracks me up is the way it was spoken about by their VP of Vista Marketing:

“You thought the sleeping giant was still sleeping, well we woke it up and it’s time to take our message forward,” Brooks warns Apple.

WTF!?

Just another strategic mistake on the part of Microsoft, which seems to have so much money and still has such a stranglehold on the industry that I guess it doesn’t matter.

I can’t wait to see these ads - should be hilarious to review them and I’m sure it will spawn tons of comparisons with the simple Mac ads.

If he stays healthy, I think they got a pretty great deal. He’s a great pitcher, only 26, with an option for ‘09, and they didn’t really give up a ton to get him. A 1-2 punch like Zambrano/Harden can go a long way come September/October.

Getting Gaudin in the deal as well is a nice bonus - he’s a pretty solid reliever.

We’ll see how this pans out, but I’m a happy fan right now.
