&#160;
I can sum up every article, book and column written by notable management experts about managing IT in two sentences: &#34;Geeks are smart and creative, but they are also egocentric, antisocial, managerially and business-challenged, victim-prone, bullheaded and credit-whoring. To overcome these intractable behavioral deficits you [...]]]></description>

Sure, but can it run Excel? - 
The 3d animator in me appreciates big iron, massive compute clusters and grid computing.&#160; As my compatriots at Pixar and LucasFilm will attest, there is NEVER enough computing power for what we want to do.
But my day job is to handle the computing needs of a top tier [...]]]></description>

News, Movies, and The Life Random &#8211; 
A little about how my brain works: I was watching the news, hearing about those football players lost at sea, and I saw how big and obvious the overturned boat looked from the video.&#160; Then I thought of the movie Cast Away, wondering just what I would do [...]]]></description>

In the old days -
10 years ago, I entered the “broadband” world as a DSL customer with GTE.&#160; I started at 768 kbit/s service, and it was about $35/mo.&#160; A lot has happened since then, GTE spat out Verizon, and eventually offered more speed for the same money.&#160; Cable modem service was pretty lousy until [...]]]></description>

Six months ago I got a sneek peek at the iPhone.&#160; A beautiful piece of machinery lacking only in 3 critical places:&#160; It is a 21st century network device tied to a stone-age cellular network.&#160; Its on-screen keyboard is clumsy (though far better than others up to that point).&#160; It is a new OS and [...]]]></description>
