Recently I started listening to Retrocity, a retro gaming podcast, and Sega and the game gear were mentioned. Back when the Game Gear was released, I already owned a Gameboy (which I had bought with my own money), and I was vacationing with my dad. My ‘goal’ was to own an Atari Lynx, a Gameboy and a Game Gear. In order to get a day closer to the goal I asked my dad to buy me a Game Gear

I upgraded my Nokia N800 to the newest firmware a while back, and I have to say that I am pretty pleased! Initially I was not going to upgrade because I was really not looking forward to reinstalling my applications. Thankfully, the backup that I did also captured most of my config files so I did not have to configure more of my upgraded apps.My overall impression of Diablo is favorable. I am really

I am a big Terminator fan, that is why I am happy this series is coming back for another season! I initially approached this series with skepticism, but it ended up being quite good! My reasons for being a skeptic were that I really could not see anyone other than Linda Hamilton taking over the role of Sarah Connor, and the idea of a high-school-aged terminator T800 was laughable (at the time).Well

I’ve been using Firefox 3.0 for a couple of weeks now on my Vista machine at work, and I can say that I really like this version, much better than the 2.x that I used to use up to now. I am not really into micro-analyzing what renders on my screen. All I know, from an end user perspective, is that the application is snappy, and what is displayed on the screen looks normal.I think I need to spend

Many of my friends know I am a technology geek, and of course their first question to me, after Jobs’ announcement of the iPhone 3G is to ask me whether or not I am getting a 3G iPhone. The answer at this point is ‘no’ and this perplexes very many people who consider me an Apple fanboy. There is quite a logical reason to my denial of the “jesusphone 2.0” and it has (almost)

Back in the days of the original gameboy (bought mine in 1990), I did not have that many games. I had Tetris and Super Mario Land. My first expansion was when I was visiting my relatives and I spent a lot of time at Toys R Us stores where relatives bought me games ;-)One of these games was Megaman II. I had never played Megaman before, but my 11-year-old mind thought that “2” must be better

I’ve been using Expose since Tiger came out, it is a nifty function of the MacOS. When Leopard came out I did not use Expose at all because I did not have to experiment with the functionality, and quite honestly I couldn’t be bothered. I had gotten my workflow to a point where I was happy, and I did not want to change. That all changed this week!I started experimenting with Expose on my

Well, we’re one third done with the semester, and it’s project start time.I am planning on designing and partly implementing and online class for travelers to Greece. I was going to make it broader, a start-to-end trip to Greece, with language and culture for a variety of occasions, but I don’t think I will have time. Instead, I think that I will be focusing on everyone’s favorite

Αν και δεν πάω διακοπές φέτος, είμαι σε μπλογκοδιακοπές. Επιστροφή στο Μπλόγκ κατά την μέση του Αυγούστου. Καλές και ασφαλείς διακοπές σε όλους!

Thanks to Hulu, I have been exposed to yet another great television show (no I don’t spend all my time at home watching television). Burn notice is a series about a CIA agent who’s been, well to put it bluntly, screwed. He’s off on a mission at the beginning of the series, tries to make a deal with some shady people on behalf of the US government and BAM! He’s cut lose! “We
