Adam Computers is officially open for business. This is actually my second week….. Still working towards stocking the shelves… PC components, systems, accessories, etc.

I have a couple websites to do, so they keep me busy between customers. My current design is online (partially) at www.fisherbarns.com. Check it out and give me some feedback on it…

O.K…. so if you’re gonna keep up with these ratings/rankings, you’ll be buying new software every month!! But since I’ve really dissed Norton in the past, I think I should make you aware of the newest review from PC Magazine. Norton Internet Security 2007 gets a 4.5 out of 5 rating.

Neil J. Reubenstien @ PC Magazine

With the 2007 release, Symantec’s Norton Internet Security takes a clear new direction. The suite does its level best to stay out of your face—instead of asking confusing questions it makes its own decisions. And the design strives to limit the utility’s impact on system performance (a common complaint in earlier versions)—to the point of omitting some modules in its default configuration. Your subscription gets you all updates for a year and lets you install on three computers.

The blog of Adam Computers….. I mean the blog of the guy behind Adam Computers. A company is not an entity in and of itself; it consists of individuals. This sounds political somehow…..

Forget politics, there’s plenty of that in the blogosphere. Hmmmm….. actually I guess there is plenty of tech in the blogosphere as well. Oh well, another voice won’t hurt.

So, after all those bunny trails, what is really going on here?? Well, everybody has a blog, right? So I must as well. I’ll point out news I think is noteworthy, check out reviews and recommendations, and whatever else I feel like writing….
