July 31st, 2008 · No Comments

http://shiny.thorne.id.au/2008/07/firefox-ssl-nags.html asks Hoosgot,

A “Web2.0 for Scientists Week”: sign …

July 31st, 2008 · No Comments

http://blog.pansapiens.com/2008/08/01/a-web20-for-scientists-week-signup-fest/ asks Hoosgot,

http://www.protocolostomy.com/2008/07/29/is-it-time-to-switch-vm-apps-on-os-x/ asks Hoosgot,
Thought I’d throw this out to the lazyweb for advice. I’ve been running OS X as my primary desktop OS since I got my macbook pro around May 2006 or so. I installed Parallels as soon as I found it, and it was great. I still have it installed. However, I’ve found […]
